WARNING!

Your safety is important to us. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons

or damage when using your vacuum cleaner, follow basic safety precautions including the

following:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Use your vacuum cleaner only as

described in this Use & Care Guide.

Use only manufacturer’s recommended

attachments.

• Disconnect electrical supply before

servicing or cleaning out the brush area.

Failure to do so could result in the brush

unexpectedly starting, causing personal

injury from moving parts.

• Do not leave vacuum cleaner when

plugged in. Unplug from outlet when

not in use and before performing

maintenance.

• To reduce the risk of electrical shock - Do

not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close

attention is necessary when used by or

near children.

• Do not use with a damaged cord or plug.

If vacuum cleaner is not working as it

should, has been dropped, damaged,

left outdoors, or dropped in water,

immediately discontinue use and call

1-877-531-7321 (US) / 1-844-608-3081

(CA) for assistance.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as

a handle, close a 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 unplug by pulling on cord. To

unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner

with wet hands.

• Do not put any objects into openings.

• Do not use with any opening blocked;

Read all instructions in this guide before assembling or using your vacuum cleaner.

keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything

that may reduce air flow.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all

parts of body away from openings and

moving parts.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

• Do not put on chairs, tables, etc. Keep on

floor.

• Do not use vacuum cleaner to pick

up flammable or combustible liquids

(gasoline, cleaning fluid, perfumes,

etc.), or use in areas where they may be

present. The fumes from these substances

can create a fire hazard or explosion.

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or

smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or

hot ashes.

• Do not use vacuum cleaner without dust

bag and/or filters in place.

• Always change the dust bag after

vacuuming carpet cleaners or freshener,

powders, and fine dust. These products

clog the bag, reduce airflow and can

cause the bag to burst. Failure to change

the bag could cause permanent damage

to the vacuum cleaner.

• Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick

up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins,

paper clips, etc. They may damage the

vacuum cleaner.

• Do not operate the vacuum cleaner

without the exhaust filter or filter door in

place.

• The hose contains electrical wires. Do not

use when damaged, cut, or punctured.
