Ultraviolet Light

We learned that ultraviolet light (UV-C) had been used for decades to
create some of the world's healthiest environments, and that it had also
been used to disinfect hospitals and sterilize drinking water.
This product emits germicidal ultraviolet light. Exposure to or touching
the ultraviolet light during operation may result in burns and skin or
vision damage. Follow these safety guidelines when using the
ultraviolet light:
• Never stare directly at the ultraviolet light
• While the vacuum is in operation never pick up or turn over
the vacuum
• Never touch the bottom of the vacuum or protective lens.
Allow the UV-C light and protective lens to cool down before
touching the bottom of the vacuum or storing the vacuum.
Safety features have been designed into the vacuum to prevent personal
injury. These include:
• The vacuum must be in the standard operating position, not the
upright position to activate the UV-C light.
• The UV-C light will disengage if the product is tilted, raising
the wheel off the carpet.
• The UV-C light will not engage when attachments are in use.
The attachment door must be closed for the UV-C light
to operate.
Any attempt to turn the ultraviolet light ON by defeating the UV-C
light switch or other safety features may result in personal injury and is
considered an unauthorized use of the appliance.
If necessary, call customer service or take the vacuum into an autho-
rized Oreck service center.
