IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR CANISTER VACUUM.
Always connect to a polarized outlet (one slot is wider than the other). Unplug from outlet when not in use and before conducting maintenance. When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be observed, including the following.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY:

• Always connect to a polarized outlet (one slot is wider than the other). Do not modify the polarized plug to fit a non-polarized outlet or extension cord.

• Do not leave vacuum cleaner when it is plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.

• 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 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 appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

• Do not use to pick up toxic material (chlorine bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner, etc.).

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

• Do not use without filters in place.
