into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change
the vacuum power cord in any way.
WARNING: Always unplug the product from the electrical outlet
before assembling, opening or emptying the container, or connecting/disconnecting the

CAUTION: Keep the suction intake opening free from obstruction at
all times; otherwise the motor will overheat and product damage may result.
