Yoursafety is important to us. Toreduce the risk of
fire, electrical
shock, injury
to persons or damage when using your vacuum cleaner, follow
basic safety
precautions
including
the following:
Read this manual before assembling or
using your vacuum cleaner.
Use your cleaner only as described
in
this manual. Use only with Sears recom-
mended
attachments.
To reduce the risk of electrical
shock -
Do not use outdoors
or on wet surfaces.
Disconnect
electrical
supply before any
servicing
or cleaning.
Failure to do so
could result in electrical
shock or person-
al injury.
Always turn cleaner off before unplug-
ging.
Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To
unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not use with damaged
cord or plug.
tf cleaner is not working as it should, has
been dropped,
damaged,
left outdoors,
or dropped into water, return it to a
Sears Service Center.
Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as
a handle, close door on cord, or pull
cord around sharp edges or corners.
Do
not run cleaner over cord. Keep cord
away from heated surfaces.
Do not leave cleaner when plugged in.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before servicing.

Agitator
Brush may suddenly

servicing.
Do not put any objects into openings.
Do not use with any opening

that may reduce air flow.

parts of body away from openings
and
moving parts.
Do not use cleaner without dust bin
and/or filters in place.
Always clean the dust bin after vacuum-
ing carpet cleaners or freshener,
pow-
ders and fine dust. These products
clog
the filters, reduce airflow and can cause
damage to the cleaner. Failure to clean
the dust bin could cause permanent
damage to the cleaner.
Do not use the cleaner to pick up sharp
hard objects, small toys, pins, paper
clips, etc. They may damage the clean-
er or dust bin.
Do not pick up anything that is burning
or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches,
or hot ashes.
Do not use cleaner to pick up flammable
or combustible
liquids (gasoline,
clean-
ing fluids, perfumes,
etc.), or use in
areas where they may be present.
The
fumes from these substances
can create
a fire hazard or explosion.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
Do not put on chairs, tables, etc.
Keep
on floor.

for making sure that
your vacuum cleaner is not used by any-
one unable to operate
