IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VACUUM CLEANER.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

• 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.

• 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

vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

• Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.

• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands.

• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce

airflow.

• Do not let the Power Nozzle stand in one place while running for an extended period as it could cause carpet damage. Use extra care

when cleaning on stairs.

• Power Nozzles have a rotating brush in which parts may become entrapped. Please use them with caution and only on intended

surfaces.

• This vacuum cleaner creates suction. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

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

• Do not use without dust cup, filter, screen and exhaust filter in place.

• Belt pulleys can become hot during normal use. To prevent burns, avoid touching the belt pulley when servicing the drive belt.

• Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.

• Store your cleaner in a cool, dry area.

• Keep your work area well lighted.

• Unplug electrical appliances before vacuuming them.

• For Household use only.

• WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or reproductive harm.

WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will

fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,

contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Thermal cut off

This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the vacuum in case of motor overheating. If the vacuum

suddenly shuts off, push the on/off switch off (0) and unplug the vacuum. Check the vacuum for a possible source of

overheating such as a full dust cup, a blocked hose or clogged filter. If these conditions are found, fix them and wait at

least 30 minutes before attempting to use the vacuum. After the 30 minute period, plug the vacuum back in and push the

on/off switch on ( l ). If the vacuum still does not run, then take it to an Electrolux Authorized Service Center for repair.
