Thank you for your purchase of the Sanyo Vacuum Cleaner.
Please read these instructions carefully before

using.

A FEW PRECAUTIONS

1. Operating without the filter in place will allow dust to enter the motor
and could damage the vacuum cleaner.

2. Keep the vacuum cleaner away from stoves and other heat sources.

Heat can deform and discolor the plastic parts of the unit.

3. Keep the vacuum cleaner free of insecticides. Do not wipe with

benzine, thinner, petrol or other oils which might cause discoloration
or cracking. To clean the body and hose, dampen a cloth with a mild
detergent and wipe clean.

5, Be sure not to push the clamp button while carrying the vacuum

cleaner.

6. Never try to vacuum the following objects. They may damage the unit
or cause a fire.

●Wet things, mud, soil, and fluids

● Burning cigarettes

*Needles and razor blades
“Inflammable materials such as gasoline and thinner

7, The following kinds of treatment shorten hose life:

*Bending hose at an acute angle when storing
*Pulling the hose with excessive force

“Placing heavy objects on, or stepping on the hose

8. Pull out the plug from the power source after use, GrasR the plug ­not the cord – when pulling out the plug.
Pulling on the cord may lead to shortcircuiting.

9. Long and continuous use causes the exhaust air and the body of the
vacuum cleaner to become warm. This, however, does not denote

malfunction.

10t When vacuuming vinyl mats which may stick to the floor nozzle

because of the suction, lift up the rear of the floor nozzle slightly by

moving the wands close to a vertical position.

11, When vacuuming places that are very dusty, and also when vacuuming

regularly, empty the dust compartment before it becomes completely
filled.

Frequent emptying lengthens the life of the motor and maintains

strong suction power.
