• Do not pick up anything burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not use without filters, separators, and dirt cup in place.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure that the power button is off when picking up or carrying the product. Carrying the appliance with your finger on the button or energizing an appliance that has the button on invites accidents.
• Recharge only with the Dirt Devil® charger 720429001. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of injury and fire when used with another battery pack.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
• Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance (or the battery pack) except as indicated in the instructions for use and care.
• To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not leave the product running unattended. Immediately stop the unit if it shows signs of abnormal operation such as loss of suction, liquid or debris in the exhaust, or any abnormal motor noises.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs. To avoid personal injury or damage, and to prevent the products from falling, always place products at the bottom of stairs or on the floor. Do not place the product on stairs or furniture.
• Do not expose battery-operated appliances to fire or excessive temperatures. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265°F/130°C may cause an explosion.
• Do not use chargers outdoors
• Do not charge the battery in a damp or wet location.
• Do not use, store, or charge battery packs or products in locations where the temperature is less than 50°F or more than 100°F. Do not store outside or in vehicles.
• During charging, the pack and ambient temperature should be between 41° to 86°F (5° and 30°C).
• The product does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet, therefore it is always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when using the product or when changing accessories.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the product’s operation. If damaged, call customer service prior to use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained products.
