basic precautions, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
Warning:
• Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children. Do not allow vacuum cleaner to be used as a toy or to
run unattended at any time.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, feet and all parts of body away
from openings, rotating agitator and other moving parts. Do not
operate cleaner in bare feet or when wearing open toe shoes or
sandals.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as ciga-
rettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as
gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.
• Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with the cleaner. They may
damage the cleaner and the bag.
• Do not use without dust bag or filters in place. Change bag fre-
quently when picking up very fine materials such as powder.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening
blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, or anything that may reduce air
flow.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close door on

ance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Always disconnect cord from electrical outlet before servicing the
cleaner.
• Unplug cleaner when not in use. Turn off all controls before unplug-
ging.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not
the cord. Never handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
• The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
• 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, take it to a Hoover Factory Service Center or Authorized

• Use vacuum cleaner only for its intended use as described in the
instructions. Use only attachments recommended by The Hoover
