• . Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
• . Do not leave vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord when not in use and before servicing.
• . Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
• . Use only as desribed in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
• . Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water, return it to a service center before using.
• . 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 vacuum
cleaner over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• . Hold plug when rewinding onto cord reel. Do not allow plug to whip when rewinding.
• . Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.
• . Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• . 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 or operate without shoes.
• . Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce
airflow.
• . This vacuum cleaner creates suction. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
• . Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• . Do not use without dust bag or filter in place.
• . Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• . Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.
• . Store your cleaner indoors in a cool, dry area.
• . Keep your work area well lighted.
• . Unplug electrical appliances before vacuuming them.
• . Unplug before connecting the turbo nozzle. (on some models)
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider then the other). This plug will fit in a polar-
ized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fully fit into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do NOT change the plug in any way.
CE Rating System (Cleaning Effectiveness)
This is not an Amp rating. Amps do not measure dirt removal, only the amount of electricity used. CLEANING EFFECTIVENESS is the average
ASTM F608 cleanability score.
