• 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.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not handle plug or appliance 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 air flow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs. To avoid personal injury or damage, and to prevent the cleaner from falling, always place cleaner at bottom of stairs or on floor. Do not place cleaner on stairs or furniture, as it may result in injury or damage.
• 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.
• Unplug before connecting Turbo Tool.

• Store appropriately indoors in a dry place. Do not expose machine to freezing temperatures.
• Brush roll continues to turn while product is turned on and handle is in upright position. To avoid damage to carpet, rugs, and flooring, avoid tipping cleaner or setting it on furniture, fringed area rugs, or carpeted stairs during tool use.
• Do not use sharp objects to clean out hose as they can cause damage.
• With brush roll on, do not allow cleaner to sit in one location for an extended period of time, as damage to floor can result.

Assembly

Fully assemble product prior to use.

Operation

CAUTION: Not intended for grooming pets.

CAUTION: Use extra care when cleaning on stairs. To avoid personal injury or damage, and to prevent the cleaner from falling, always place cleaner at bottom of stairs or on floor. Do not place cleaner on stairs or furniture, as it may result in injury or damage. When using tools, always ensure handle is in the upright position.

Maintenance

WARNING: Unplug the appliance before cleaning or servicing to reduce the risk of personal injury.

Removing System Clogs

If you are experiencing a loss of suction, or you notice debris is spitting out of the nozzle, we recommend checking the nozzle, tube, hose, and filters for any visible signs of blockage or built-up debris. It is also recommended to rinse your filter if there is visible built-up dirt and dust on the filter. This should help improve performance on your vacuum.

Thermal Protection

A thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the cleaner will stop running. If this happens, proceed as follows:

1. Turn cleaner OFF and unplug it.
2. Empty the dirt cup.
3. Inspect the nozzle inlet, hose connector, hose, dirt cup inlet, cyclonic filter, rinsable filter, and exhaust filter for any obstructions. Clear obstructions if present.
4. When cleaner is de-energized and motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal protector will deactivate and cleaning may continue.

If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner needs servicing.
