contain explosive substances such as coal, grain, or any other fine,
combustible material.
• Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with the cleaner. They may damage
the cleaner and the filter.
• Do not use without filters in place. Clean filters frequently 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 cord or
pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance 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 unplugging.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

instructions”.
• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it
should, has been dropped, damaged, left out doors, or dropped into water,
