A FEW PRECAUTIONS
1. Operating without the filter in place will allow dustto enter the motor and
could damage the vacuum cleaner.
2. Keep the vacuum cleaner away from stoves and other heat sources.
Heat can deform and discolor the plastic parts of the unit.
3. Keep the vacuum cleaner free of insecticides. Do not wipe with benzine,
thinner, petrol or other oils which might cause discoloration or cracking.
To clean the body and hose, dampen a cloth with a mild detergent and
wipe clean.
4. Blocking the suction inle to r allowing the dust to clog the hose will
decrease the efficiency of the motor.
5. Be sure not to push the clamp button while carrying the vacuum cleaner.
6. Never try to vacuum the following objects. They may damage the unit or
cause a fire.
* Wet things, mud, soil, and fluids
* Burning cigarettes
* Needles and razor blades
* Inflammable materials such as gasoline and thinner
9. Pull out the plug from the power source after use. Grasp the plug-not
the cord-when pulling out the plug.
Pulling on the cord may lead to short circuiting.
10. Long and continuous use causes the exhaust air and the body of the
vacuum cleaner to become warm. This, however, does not denote
malfunction.
11.When vacuuming places that are very dusty, and also when vacuuming
regularly, empty the dust compartment before it becomes completely
filled.
Frequent emptying lengthens the life of the motor and maintains strong
suction power.
12.If the supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced
by a repair shop appointed by the manufacturer, in order to avoid a
hazard.
14.Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.

Under normal usage, the HEPA Filter will require replacement once every one year; however,
vacuuming large amounts of extremely fine dust, powder or similar material over a long period of
time may decrease airflow performance through the filter. If this occurs, it may become necessary
to replace the HEPA Filter more often. Only use genuine Sanyo replacement filters.
