plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug
the electrical cord when not in use and before

attention is necessary when used by or near
children.

• Do not pull or carry by the 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.
• 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.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider then the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized 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.
Thermal Cut Off
This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of motor overheating. If the cleaner
suddenly shuts off, push the on/off switch off (0) and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for a possible source of
overheating such as a full dust bag, a blocked hose or clogged filter. If these conditions are found, fix them and wait
at least 30 minutes before attempting to use the cleaner. After the 30 minute period, plug the cleaner back in and
push the on/off switch on (l).
Do Not Oil the motor or the brushroll at any time. The bearings are permanently
lubricated and sealed.
