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 door on cord, or
pull cord around sharp edges or corners. 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 plug in or handle 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 use to pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches or hot ashes.
• Do not use without a filter in place. When servicing the unit, never put fingers
or other objects into the fan chamber in case the unit would accidentally be
turned on.
• 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.
