IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electric appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including
the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VACUUM CLEANER

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

●●●●●

Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

●●●●●

Do not leave vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug the
electrical cord when not in use and before servicing.

●●●●●

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. If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a
service center before using.

●●●●●

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 vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord
away from heated surfaces.

●●●●●

Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.

●●●●●

Turn off all controls before unplugging.

●●●●●

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

●●●●●

Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner 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 airflow.

●●●●●

This vacuum cleaner creates suction. 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 motor filter in place.

●●●●●

Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

●●●●●

Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, or use in
areas where they may be present.

●●●●●

Store your cleaner indoors in a cool, dry area.

●●●●●

Keep your work area well lighted.

●●●●●

Unplug electrical appliances before vacuuming them.

Double Insulation

SAVE THESE  INSTRUCTIONS

2

●●●●●

Your vacuum cleaner is double insulated. This means that all external parts are electrically
insulated from the mains. This is done by placing insulation barriers between the electrical and
mechanical components, making it unnecessary for the cleaner to be earthed.
