Important Safeguards!
When using an electrical appliance, always follow basic precautions, including
the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
Warning:
• Do not use on wet surfaces.
• Connect to a properly grounded outlet only. See "Grounding Instructions."
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Do not allow cleaning system to be used as a toy or to run unattended at any
time.
• Do not allow any objects to be put into wall inlets.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or fine
wood sandings or use in areas where they may be present.
• Do not use without filter in place. Empty dust container and clean filter
frequently when picking up very fine materials such as powder.
• Use extra care when cleaning stairs.
• Do not put any objects into openings. Do not use with any openings blocked:
keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.
• 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.
• Always disconnect cord from electrical outlet before servicing the power unit.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Never handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Unplug cleaner when not in use. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, take it to a
Hoover Sales and Service Center or Authorized Hoover Warranty Service Dealer
(Depot).
• Use vacuum cleaner only for its intended use as described in this owner's
manual. Use only attachments recommended by The Hoover Company; others
may cause hazards.
When using accessory kits, note these additional
Safeguards:
• Do not use powered nozzle outdoors.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, feet and all parts of body away from open-
ings, rotating agitator and any other moving parts. Do not operate nozzle in
bare feet or when wearing open toe shoes or sandals.
• Disconnect hose from wall inlet and cord from electrical outlet when not in use
and before servicing motorized nozzle.
