Important Safety Instructions
aWARNINGa
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using
your vacuum cleaner, follow these basic precautions:
• Read all instructions before using the vacuum.
• Do not plug into electrical supply until assembly is complete. Failure to do so could result in
electrical shock or injury.
• Electric shock could occur if used outdoors or on wet surfaces.
• Never leave a vacuum cleaner plugged in and unattended near children.
• Keep children away from the vacuum cleaner at all times. Injury could result from suction.
• Never vacuum cigarette butts or fireplace ashes.
• Never use vacuum cleaner where flammable vapors form cleaning fluids, perfumes, etc. are
present. This could start a fire.
• Do not use outlets above counters. Damage to items in surrounding areas could occur.
• Never operate with a damaged cord or plug.
• Always turn off cleaner before removing or replacing any parts from the vacuum cleaner.
• Always change the dust bag after vacuuming carpet cleaners or fresheners, powders and fine
dust. These products clog the bag, reduce airflow and can cause the bag to burst. Do not
block any opening.
• Always turn off the vacuum cleaner before unplugging it.
• Always unplug the power cord by pulling the plug, not the cord.
• Always unplug your vacuum cleaner whenever you leave it for more than a moment or when
not in use.
• Use only recommended parts and attachments.
• Unit should always be connected to properly grounded outlet only.
• Do not use without a dust bag.
• Do not handle plug or appliances with wet hands.
