SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE USE.

When using an electrical appliance,

basic precautions should be observed,
including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING YOUR 
UPRIGHT VACUUM.

Always connect to a polarized outlet (left slot is
wider than right). Unplug from outlet when not
in use and before conducting maintenance.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of 

fire, electric shock, or injury:

Do not modify the polarized plug to fit a 
non-polarized outlet or extension cord.

Do not leave vacuum cleaner unattended
when it is plugged in.

Unplug from outlet when not in use and 
before servicing.

Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

Do not allow children to operate vacuum 
cleaner or use as a toy.

Close attention is necessary when used by
or near children.

Do not use for any purpose other than
described in this User’s Guide.

Use only manufacturer’s recommended 
attachments.

■   

Do not use with damaged cord or plug.

If appliance is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors,
or dropped into water, have it repaired at
an authorized service center.

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
appliance over cord. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces.

Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To
unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

Do not handle vacuum cleaner or plug with 
wet hands.

Do not put any object into openings. Do 
not use with any opening blocked; keep
openings free of dust, lint, hair, and 
anything that may reduce air flow.

THIS APPLIANCE HAS A
POLARIZED PLUG.

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 a proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

This model is for household use only.
