Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow vacuum cleaner to be used as a toy or to run unattended at any time.

Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, feet and all parts of body away from openings, rotating agitator and other moving parts. Do not operate cleaner in bare feet or when wearing open toe shoes or sandals.

Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible materials such as gasoline or fine wood sandings or use in areas where they may be present.

Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with the cleaner. They may damage the cleaner.

Always turn off this appliance before connecting or disconnecting hose.

Unplug cleaner before connecting the powered hand tool.

Do not use without dirt cup or filters in place. Empty cup and clean filter fre- quently when picking up very fine materials such as powder.

Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, or anything that may reduce air flow.

Always disconnect cord from electrical outlet before servicing the cleaner.

These models are designed to meet the diverse needs of households, making them versatile cleaning companions.

One of the standout features of these Hoover models is their multi-cyclonic technology. This system ensures that dirt and debris are effectively separated from the air, which helps maintain strong suction power. As a result, users can enjoy consistent cleaning performance without the worry of clogging. Additionally, the large dirt container minimizes the frequency of emptying, allowing for uninterrupted cleaning sessions.

These vacuums also come equipped with a variety of attachments and tools that enhance their functionality. The included tools, such as the upholstery tool and crevice tool, allow users to tackle different cleaning tasks with ease, from upholstery to tight corners. The onboard storage for these tools ensures they are always within reach when needed.

Another impressive characteristic is the height adjustment feature. This allows users to customize the vacuum's height to suit different floor types, whether it be plush carpets, hardwood, or tile. This adaptability is crucial for achieving optimal cleaning results across various surfaces.

The U5180-950 and its counterparts also feature a HEPA filter system, essential for those who suffer from allergies or have pets. The filter captures 99.97% of dust and allergens, improving indoor air quality and ensuring a healthier living environment. The filters are washable, making it easier for users to maintain their vacuum without incurring additional costs.

Ease of use is a primary design consideration in these models. The lightweight construction makes them easy to maneuver, while the ergonomic handle provides comfort during operation. Additionally, the vacuum's corded design ensures a constant power supply, eliminating the need for battery replacements.

Overall, the Hoover U5180-950, U5183-910, U5180-955, U5185-910, and U5180-910 are built to provide efficient and thorough cleaning. With advanced technologies, user-friendly features, and robust performance, these vacuum cleaners are excellent choices for maintaining a clean and healthy home.
