IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WHEN USING AN ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE OBSERVED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR SHARK MULTI-VAC VACUUMING SYSTEM.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,

contact a qualified electrician.

DO NOT force into outlet or try to modify to fit.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury, do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
