MPORTANT SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons or damage when using your
vacuum cleaner, follow basic safety precautions including the following:
Read this manual before assembling or using
your vacuum cleaner.
Use your cleaner only as described in this
manual. Use only with Sears recommended
attachments.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock -Do not
use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Disconnect electrical supply before servicing
or cleaning out brush area. Failure to do so
could result in electrical shock or brush
suddenly starting.
Always turn cleaner off before connecting or
disconnecting the hose or POWER-MATETM.
Always turn cleaner off before unplugging.
Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug,
grasp the plug, not the cord.
Hold plug when rewinding onto cord reel. Do
not allow plug to whip when rewinding.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If
cleaner is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped
into water, return it to a Sears Service
Center/Department.
Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a
handle, close door on cord, or pull cord
around sharp edges or corners. Do not run
cleaner over cord. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces.

Do not operate cleaner with a punctured hose.
The hose on some models contains electrical
wires. Replace ifcut or worn. Avoid picking up
sharp objects.
Do not put any objects intoopenings.

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 cleaner without dust bag/and or
filters in place. Always change the dust bag
after vacuuming carpet cleaners or freshener,
powders and fine dust. These products clog
the bag, reduce airflow and can cause the
bag to burst. Failure to change bag could
cause permanent damage to the cleaner.
Do not use the cleaner to pick up sharp hard
objects, small toys, pins, paper, etc. They may
damage the cleaner or dust bag.
Do not pick up anything that isburning or
smoking, such as cigarettes,matches, or hot
ashes.
Do not use cleaner to pick up flammable or
combustible liquids (gasoline, cleaning fluids,
perfumes, etc.), or use in areas where they
may be present. The fumes from these
substances can create a firehazard or explosion.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs. Do not
put on chairs, tables, etc. Keep on floor.
You are responsible for making sure that your
vacuum cleaner isnot used by anyone unable
