WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury, or property damage:
GENERAL WARNINGS
When using an electrical appliance,
basic precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1. Your vacuum cleaner may consist of
a motorized nozzle, wand, hose, and/
or vacuum pod. This device contains
electrical connections, electrical
wiring, and moving parts that
potentially present risk to the user.
2. Use only identical replacement parts.
3.
Carefully observe and follow the
instructions provided below to avoid
improper use of the appliance. DO NOT
use the vacuum for any purpose other
than those described in this manual.
4. Before use, carefully inspect all parts
for any damage. DO NOT use if any
parts are damaged.
5. The use of an extension cord is
NOT recommended.
6. This vacuum cleaner contains no
serviceable parts.
USE WARNINGS
7. This appliance can be used by
persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or
lack of experience and knowledge
if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of
the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall
not be made by children.
a) Keep the appliance and its cord
out of reach of children. DO NOT
allow the appliance to be used by
children. DO NOT allow to be used
as a toy. Close supervision is
necessary when used near children.
8. Always turn off the vacuum cleaner
before connecting or disconnecting
any motorized nozzles or other
accessories.
9. DO NOT handle plug or vacuum
cleaner with wet hands.
10. DO NOT use without filters in place.
11. Only use Shark® branded filters
and accessories. Failure to do so
will also void the warranty.
12. DO NOT damage the power cord:
a) DO NOT pull or carry vacuum
cleaner by the cord or use the
cord as a handle.
b) DO NOT unplug by pulling on
cord. Grasp the plug, not the cord.
c) DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner
over the power cord, close a door
on the cord, pull the cord around
sharp corners, or leave the cord
near heated surfaces.
13. DO NOT put any objects into nozzle
or accessory openings. DO NOT use
with any opening blocked; keep free
of dust, lint, hair, and anything that
may reduce airflow.
14. DO NOT use if nozzle or accessory
airflow is restricted. If the air paths or
the motorized floor nozzle become
blocked, turn the vacuum cleaner
off and unplug from electrical outlet.
Remove all obstructions before you
plug in and turn on the unit again.
15. Keep nozzle and all vacuum
openings away from hair, face,
fingers, uncovered feet, or loose
clothing.
16. DO NOT use if vacuum cleaner is
not working as it should, or has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water.
17. Use extra care when cleaning
on stairs.
18. DO NOT leave the vacuum cleaner
unattended while plugged in.
19. When powered on, keep the vacuum
cleaner moving over the carpet surface
at all times to avoid damaging the
carpet fibers.
20. DO NOT place vacuum cleaner
on unstable surfaces such as chairs
or tables.
21. Your Shark® vacuum may not be
designed to stand up on its own. When
taking a break from cleaning, you may
need to lean it against furniture or a
wall, or lay it flat on the floor. Using
the vacuum for an application where
the unit lacks stability may result in
personal injury.
22. DO NOT use to pick up:
a) Liquids
b) Large objects
c) Hard or sharp objects
(glass, nails, screws, or coins)
d) Large quantities of dust (drywall
dust, fireplace ash, or embers).
DO NOT use as an attachment to
power tools for dust collection.
e) Smoking or burning objects
(hot coals, cigarette butts,
or matches)
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
