WARNING:To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polar-

ized 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 in 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.

This cleaner contains a protective device which will automatically shut off

the brush motor current flow at abnormally high brush motor currents. If the pro-

tective device is activated - turn main switch off and inspect the motorized nozzle.

After approximately one (1) minute the device will have reset and the vacuum will be

ready to use. NOTE: The cleaner must remain off during the one (1) minute cooling

period.
