MPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

  Unplug before attaching the TurboBrush.

  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.

  Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of 

body away from openings and moving parts.

 

 

Turn off all controls before plugging or unplugging 

vacuum cleaner.

 

 

Use extra care when cleaning stairs.

  Do not pick up flammable materials (lighter fluid, 

gasoline, kerosene, etc.) or use in the presence of 
explosive liquids or vapors.

  Do not pick up toxic material (chlorine bleach, 

ammonia, drain cleaner, etc.).

  Do not use vacuum cleaner in an enclosed space 

filled with vapors given off by oil base paint, paint 
thinner, some moth proofing substances, flammable 
dust, or other explosive or toxic vapors.

 

 

Do not pick up hard or sharp objects such as 

glass, nails, screws, coins, etc.

  Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, 

such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

  Do not use without filters in place.

  Use only on dry, indoor surfaces.

  Keep appliance on a level surface.

 

 

Do not carry the vacuum cleaner while it 

is running.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR 
FUTURE USE

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.
