followed, including the following:

Do not leave plugged in. Unplug from electrical outlet when not in use and
before servicing.
Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces or to vacuum water or other liquids -
electric shock could occur.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or
near children.
You are responsible for making sure that your vacuum cleaner is not used by
anyone unable to operate it properly.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only with Dyson recommended
attachments and accessories.
Check to ensure your electricity supply corresponds to that shown on the rating
plate, which is located behind the bin. The machine must only be used as rated.
Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the appliance is not working as it
should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or immersed in liquid,
contact the Dyson Helpline at 1-866-693-9766.
Do not pull or carry by the cord, do not use the cord as a handle, do not
close a door on the cord or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Do
not run the appliance over the cord. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces
and open flames.
Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not handle the plug or appliance with wet hands.
Do not use the appliance without the clear binTM and filters in place.
Do not put any object into openings in the machine. 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.
Do not use the machine to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper
clips etc. They may damage the machine.
The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
Store the machine indoors. Putthe vacuum cleaner away after use with the
cord coiled safely, to prevent tripping accidents.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs; always work with the machine at the
bottom of the stairs. Do not put the machine on chairs, tables etc. Keep on
floor.
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 liquids, such as gasoline, or
use in areas where they may be present.
When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the
clear bin or wand. These are entirely harmless and are not associated with the
electricity supply. To minimize any effect from this, do not put your hand or
insert any object into the clear bin unless you have first emptied it and rinsed it
out with cold water.
22 Use only identical Dyson replacement parts.
23 Do not carry out any maintenance work other than that shown in this manual
or advised by the Helpline.

Polarization instructions
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized 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.
