you are familiar with all instructions and
operating procedures.

of injury from moving parts, always move the cleaner with the carrying handle at
the back of the cleaner. Always place vacuum cleaner on floor with handle in upright
position when using tools. Never place your fingers under the cleaner when it is
running. Never place powerfoot on furniture or on uneven surfaces. Do not place
vacuum cleaner close enough to objects to pull them into a rotating brush.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR UPRIGHT VACUUM.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be observed, including the following:
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.
