1. Use your vacuum cleaner only as described in this manual. Use only with Panasonic
recommended attachments.

to do so could result in the brush unexpectedly starting, causing personal injury from

and before servicing.

5. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near
children.

should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped in water, return it to a
Panasonic Service Center.

around sharp edges or corners. Do not run vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord
