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:

  • Use your vacuum cleaner only as described in this Use & Care Guide. Use only with manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

  • Disconnect electrical supply before servicing or cleaning out the brushroll area. Failure to do so could result in the brushroll 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; 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 cup and/or filters in place.

  • Always clean the dust cup after vacuuming carpet cleaners or freshener, powders, and fine dust. These products clog the filters, reduce airflow and can cause damage to the vacuum cleaner.
    Failure to clean the dust cup 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 or dust cup.

PERFORMANCE/SAFETY FEATURES

THERMAL PROTECTOR

This vacuum cleaner has a thermal protector which automatically trips to protect the vacuum cleaner suction motor. If a clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor, the thermal protector turns the motor off automatically. This allows the motor to cool in order to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner
To reset thermal protector: Turn the vacuum cleaner off and unplug the power cord from the outlet to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool and the thermal protectors to reset.

CAUTION
Always return the vacuum cleaner to the upright position before using the hose and attachments. Failure to do so may result in overheating of the brushroll motor and can cause the thermal protectors to trip.

Check for and remove clogs, and empty the dust cup if necessary. Also check and clean any clogged filters. Wait approximately 50 minutes before restarting vacuum cleaner.

HAIR ELIMINATOR BRUSH ROLL

For best performance, the motorized nozzle is equipped with a hair eliminator brushroll, which prevents build-up of hair, string and other debris on the brushroll. To remove any hair wrapped around the brushroll, simply continue vacuuming, allowing the brushroll to automatically remove the hair wrap and send it to the dust cup

Performance/safety Features

CAUTION
Moving parts! To reduce the risk of personal injury, DO NOT touch the brushroll when vacuum is on. Contacting the brushroll while it is rotating can cut, bruise or cause other injuries.

BRUSHROLL RESET

The brushroll has built-in protection against motor damage should the brushroll jam. If the brushroll slows down or stops, the brushroll overload protector shuts off the brushroll motor and the brushroll indicator light emits red light. The vacuum cleaner suction motor will continue to run.

Performance/safety Features

To solve the problem: Turn off and unplug vacuum cleaner, remove obstruction, then turn on the vacuum cleaner.

NOTE: Once the brushroll motor shuts down, clear jam from brushroll and then restart the vacuum cleaner. If the problem persists, contact the vacuum cleaner help line for assistance.

SUCTION CONTROL

To assist with push/pull force of the vacuum on surfaces like thick carpet, the suction control valve can be opened to help reduce suction. Note that for best cleaning results, the suction control valve must be fully closed.

  • Slide to right to open the suction control and decrease suction. Opening control decreases suction for draperies and lightweight rugs.
  • Slide to left to close the suction control and increase suction. Closing control increases suction for upholstery and carpets.
    Performance/safety Features

VACUUM MAINTENANCE AND CARE
