AWARNING:
Your safety is important to us. To reduce the risk
of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons or
damage when using your vacuum cleaner, follow
basic safety precautions including the following:
Read all instructions in this manual before
assembling or using your vacuum cleaner.
Use your vacuum cleaner only as
described in this manual. Use only with
Sears recommended attachments.
Disconnect electrical supply before ser-
vicing or cleaning out the brush area.
Failure to do so could result in the brush
unexpectedly starting, causing personal
injury from moving parts.
Do not leave vacuum cleaner when
plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in
use and before performing maintenance.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock - Do
not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close
attention is necessary when used by or
near children.
Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If
vacuum cleaner is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors,
or dropped in water, return it to a Sears
Service Center.
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 unplug by pulling on cord. To
unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner with
wet hands.
Do not put any objects into openings.
Do not use with any opening blocked; keep
free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may
reduce air flow.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all
parts of body away from openings and
moving parts.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
Do not put on chairs, tables, etc. Keep on
floor.
Do not use vacuum cleaner to pick up
flammable or combustible liquids (gaso-
line, cleaning fluid, perfumes, etc.), or use
in areas where they may be present. The
fumes from these substances can create a
fire hazard or explosion.
Do not pick up anything that is burning or
smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or
hot ashes.
Do not use vacuum cleaner without dust
bag and/or filters in place.
Always replace the dust bag after vacuum-
ing carpet cleaners or freshener, powders,
and fine dust. These products clog the fil-
ters, reduce airflow and can cause damage
to the vacuum cleaner. Failure to replace
the dust bag could cause permanent dam-
age to the vacuum cleaner.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick up
sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper
clips, etc. They may damage the vacuum
cleaner or dust bag.
