safety precautions including the following:
- Use your vacuum cleaner only as described in this Use & Care Guide. Use only the 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 a 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 a damaged cord or plug. If the vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped in water, call1-877-531-7321 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 the vacuum cleaner over the cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
- Do not unplug by pulling on the 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 airflow.
- Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of the body away from openings and moving parts.
- Turn off all controls before unplugging.
