WARNING: To avoid mistakes that could cause serious injury, do not plug in vacuum until the following steps have been read and understood. WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by children or by unassisted, unsupervised persons whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them from using it safely.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR VACUUM WARNING: Do not operate your vacuum until it is completely assembled and installed according to the instructions. 1.

Guidelines for using extension cords Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
