IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be observed, including the following:

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

• Use indoors only.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
• Do not use for any purpose other than described in this user guide. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
• Do not charge with damaged cord or plug.
• Do not unplug by pulling on docking station cord. To unplug, grasp the charger, not the cord.
• Do not handle docking station, charging plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep openings 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 of the appliance and its accessories.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible materials (lighter fluid, gasoline, kerosene, etc.) or use in areas where they may be present.
• Do not use appliance in an enclosed space filled with vapors given off by oil-based paint, paint thinner, some moth-proofing substances, flammable dust, or other explosive or toxic vapors.
• 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 pick up hard or sharp objects such as glass, nails, screws, coins, etc.
• Use only BISSELL® cleaning products intended for use with this appliance to prevent internal component damage. See the Cleaning Formulas section of this guide
• Do not carry the appliance while in use.
• Do not immerse. Use only on surfaces moistened by the cleaning process.
• Plastic film can be dangerous. To avoid danger of suffocation, keep away from babies and children.
• Always connect to a proper electrical socket.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not use without filters in place.
• Do not charge the appliance outdoors.
• Do not incinerate the appliance even if it is severely damaged. The batteries can explode in a fire.
• Use only with charger SIL, Model SSC-420085US.
• Recharge appliance only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. 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.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• Do not immerse in water or liquid.
• 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.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C / 265°F may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature range 4-40°C / 40-104°F. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside this range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
• Use only on surface moistened by cleaning process.
• Do not pull or carry charger by cord, use cord as a handle, close door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the OFF-position before connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the appliance with your finger on the switch or energizing appliance that have the switch on invites accidents.
• 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.
• If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center.
• 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 turn ON your appliance until you are familiar with all instructions and operating procedures.
• Risk of injury from moving parts. Brush may start unexpectedly. Turn OFF before cleaning or servicing.
• Unplug charger from electrical socket when not in use, before cleaning, maintaining or servicing the appliance.
• Liquid must not be directed towards equipment containing electrical components.
• Use only the type and amount of liquids specified under the operations section of this guide.
• Battery pack and charger base output terminals are not to be short-circuited.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance except as indicated in the instructions for use and care.
• The battery must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.
