READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VACUUM CLEANER

● Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
● Do not leave vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug
the electrical cord when not in use and before servicing.
● Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near
children.
● Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer's recommended
attachments.
● Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service
center before using.

around sharp edges or corners. Do not run vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord
away from heated surfaces.
● Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.
