10. If a current carrying hose is used in conjunction with the Powerbrush, ensure the hose is not dam-
aged, cut, or punctured. Avoid picking up sharp objects.

around sharp edges or corners. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Do not run the appli-
ance over the cord.

other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in 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.
