IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical 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 or operate without shoes.
• 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 dust bag or filter(s) in place.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• Do not 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider then the other). This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fully fit into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Automatic Motor Shut-Off
To protect from overheating, this vacuum cleaner is equipped with a thermostat which automatically shuts off the motor
if it overheats. Should this happen:
Step 1: Turn off the switch and unplug the cleaner because the thermostat will allow the cleaner to automatically start
running a
gain when the motor cools (approximately 30 minutes).
Step 2: Check the hose, bag and filter regularly, as a clogged hose, full bag or dirty filter could cause the motor to
overhea
t.
Step 3: If the cleaner will not operate after cooling for approximately 30 minutes, call 1-800-282-2886 for customer
ser
vice or take it to a Eureka
Authorized Ser
vice Center for repair
