For longer service life and safe use of your vacuum, we recommend the following guidelines: Your cleaner is 

designed to pick up dirt and dust particles and water.  Avoid picking up hard or sharp objects with your cleaner 

to avoid bag breakage, clogging or possible motor damage.

Remove the plug from the socket before performing maintenance.  Before using the machine make sure that the 

frequency and voltage shown on the rating plate correspond with the mains voltage.

Treat your vacuum cleaner as you would any other high grade precision made product. Dropping, unreasonable 

bumping across thresholds and other misuses may result in a damaged unit which will not be covered under 

warranty. When not in use the power cord should be wrapped around the molded-in cord wrap for storage. After 

each use, wipe the vacuum body, accessories and power cord with a slightly damp cloth.

DANGER: IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUS CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

Electrical equipment must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of 

least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The vacuum is equipped with a cord 

containing a grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that 

is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary. DO NOT connect the grounded wire to a flat bed termi-

nal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the ground-

ing wire.

This electric equipment is for use on a normal 120 volt circuit. It has a grounded plug that looks like a the plug 

illustrated in (Fig A). A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in (Fig B & C) may be used to 

connect this plug into a 2-pole receptacle as shown in (Fig B) if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig A) can be installed by a quali-

fied electrician. The green color rigid ear lug or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a 

permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held 

in place by a metal screw.

Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with 

a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. DO 

NOT modify the plug provided with the equipment. If it will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed 

by a qualified electrician.

Note: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
