IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING
Read all instructions before using vacuum cleaner. Use only as described in this manual, and follow all label and marking instructions found on unit. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY:
•DO NOT expose to rain. Store indoors.
•Fully assemble before operating.
•DO NOT use without dust bags and/or filters installed.
•DO NOT leave unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use, and before servicing.
•DO NOT use outdoors or on wet surfaces. DO NOT handle vacuum cleaner or plug with wet hands.
•Only plug vacuum cleaner into a properly grounded outlet. See “Electrical Grounding” instructions.
•DO NOT unplug by pulling on power cord. To unplug from an outlet, pull by the plug, not the cord.
•DO NOT use with damaged cord or plug.
•DO NOT pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. DO NOT run vacuum cleaner over power cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
•Turn on/off switch to “off” before unplugging.
•DO NOT leave power cord lying on floor when not in use. It can become a tripping hazard.
•DO NOT use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids. DO NOT use in areas where these substances may be present. Electrical devices produce arcs or sparks that can cause explosions. DO NOT use anywhere that gasoline is dispensed.
•DO NOT use in an enclosed space where flammable, explosive, or toxic vapors are given off by oil base paint, paint thinner, certain mothproofing substances, or in an area where flammable dust is present.
•DO NOT pick up toxic/carcinogenic/hazardous materials such as chlorine, bleach, drain cleaner, gasoline, asbestos, pesticides, or lead.
•DO NOT pick up any materials that are burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
•During use, keep hose, wands, and other openings away from your face and body. Keep hands, feet, hair, loose clothing, and other body parts away from moving parts.
•DO NOT put any object into openings. DO NOT use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, or anything that may reduce air flow.
•Only use manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
•Use with caution on stairs.
•Use with caution when vacuuming over area rug edges and fringe.
•DO NOT allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary during use by or around children.
•If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should— or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or exposed to water—discontinue use immediately and take it to a service center for inspection.
Call 1-866-524-5233 to find a location near you.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance of your vaccum cleaner will assure continued effective cleaning performance.
1.Always use genuine Rubbermaid Commercial Products replacement parts.
2.Replace paper bag frequently.
3.Clean or replace cloth bag, intake filter, and exhaust filter/HEPA filter as necessary.
Thermal Protector
This vacuum cleaner is equipped with a self-resetting thermal protector to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the vacuum cleaner’s motor will stop running. The motor will restart after cooling down. To prevent repeated tripping of the thermal protector, clear all restrictions out of hose and tools. Replace the paper bag, and clean or replace the cloth bag and intake filter if necessary. Clear all restrictions to exhaust air flow.
Electrical Grounding/Cord Info
This appliance must be grounded. Should the unit malfunction, grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current. This reduces the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor, and a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are unsure if an outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the appliance to fit an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
ENGLISH
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated in the sketch below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.

WARNING
FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Use only a 16 gauge or higher 3-wire SJT extension cord with
this vacuum cleaner. Using a cord of different type or AWG may result in increased risk of fire or
electrical shock.
