left outdoors.

•  Don’t leave the vacuum cleaner in one spot for an extended period of time when the 

brushbar is activated. This vacuum cleaner is fitted with a rotating brushbar which if 

left in one place may cause damage to the floor surface.

the vacuum cleaner.

•  Don’t try to short the terminals of the battery and the charger.
•  Don’t use the vacuum cleaner with incorrect voltage as this may result in damage or injury to the user. 

The correct voltage is listed on the rating label.

area where there may be harmful fluids (chlorine, bleach, and ammonia drain cleaner).

user guide instructions ensure they are thoroughly dry before storing away.
