IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
1. Do not leave appliance unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
2. WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD OCCUR IF USED OUTDOORS OR ON WET SURFACES.
3.Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
4.Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
5.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, return it to a service center. Wrapping the cord too tightly
puts stress on the cord and can cause cord damage. A damaged cord is an electrical shock hazard and
could cause personal injury or damage.
6.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.
7.Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug and pull straight out of electrical outlet.
8.Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
9.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
10.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 air flow.
11.Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of the body away from openings and moving parts.
12.Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
13.
Do not use without vacuum filters in place.
14.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
15.Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they
may be present.
16.
Do not attempt to service the unit while appliance is plugged in.
17.Do not allow vacuum cleaner to remain in one spot for any length of time when the brushroll is turning.
Damage to carpet may occur.
18.Do not touch the brushroll when vacuum cleaner is on.
19.This appliance is intended for household use only.

Two-Wire Polarized Cord
T his product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug fits into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not
fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug.
State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects
or other reproductive harm.

PERFORMANCE FEATURES
Motor Protection
DUAL MOTOR
PROTECTION SYSTEM
Dual Motor Protection
System
Thermal Motor Protector
This vacuum cleaner has a motor protector
thermal valve that prevents the motor from
overheating. If a clog prevents the normal flow
of air to the motor, the thermal protector turns off
the motor automatically. This allows the motor to
cool in order to prevent damage to the vacuum
cleaner.
Motor Protector - Bypass Valve
This vacuum
cleaner also
has a motor
Motor
protector
Protector

Valve
(Fig. 1)
that prevents the
motor from
overheating
and causing
damage.
Fig. 1
The valve opens
to provide
cooling air
when a clog prevents normal air flow to the
vacuum cleaner suction motor. You will notice
a change of sound as air rushes through the
valve opening.
To correct problem: Turn off the vacuum
cleaner and unplug the power cord from the
outlet to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool and
the thermal protector in the suction motor to reset.
Check for and remove clogs, and empty the
dustbin if necessary.
Check and replace any clogged or dirty filters.
Wait approximately 40-50 minutes before
restarting the vacuum cleaner.
To correct problem: Empty the dustbin
and clean the filters.
Check for and remove clogs, and empty the
dustbin if necessary.
Note: Do not block motor protector.

Note: The motor protector may open when
using attachments or when cleaning new
carpet due to reduced airflow caused by the
attachments or by new carpet lint filling the
dustbin quickly.
