IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS
APPLIANCE. FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
The manufacturer cannot accept responsibility for damage
IMPORTANT:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, damage or injury:
caused when the appliance is not used according to the instructions, or for uses other than those for which it was intended.
• Empty the dust cup before the contents reach the
“fill line” on the dust cup. Over-filling the dust cup may cause dirt and debris to clog the filter and cause loss of suction.
Always unplug the vacuum from the electrical outlet before removing the dust cup.
• Do not leave appliance when plugged in. Unplug
from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
• WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD
OCCUR IF USED OUTDOORS OR ON WET SURFACES.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention
is necessary when used by or near children.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only
manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. Or if
appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to your Authorized Simplicity Retailer for service.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a
handle, close a door on the cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use
with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair and anything that may reduce air flow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of
body away from openings and moving parts.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or
smoking, such as cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
• Do not use without filters in place.

POLARIZATION INSTRUCTIONS
Power Cord, 2-Wire Polarized Cord
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the vacuum is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:

cause cancer.
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to
