IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your vacuum cleaner, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions in this manual before assembling or using your vacuum cleaner.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury:

Use your vacuum cleaner only as described in this manual. Use only with Panasonic recommended attachments.
Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing or cleaning out the brush area.
Do not leave the vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before servicing.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Do not allow it to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped in water, return it to a Panasonic Service Center.
Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run a vacuum cleaner over the cord. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not handle the plug or the vacuum cleaner with wet hands.
Do not put any objects into openings.
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 the body away from openings and moving parts.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs. Do not put on chairs, tables, etc. Keep on the floor.
Do not use a vacuum cleaner to pick up flammable or combustible liquids (gasoline, cleaning fluid, perfumes, etc.), or use it in areas where they may be present. The fumes from these substances can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
Do not use a vacuum cleaner without a dust bin and/or filters in place.
Unplug before connecting the Air Turbine (if applicable).
Hold the lug when rewinding onto the reel. DO NOT allow the plug to whip when rewinding.
You are responsible for making sure that your vacuum cleaner is not used by anyone who is unable to operate it properly.

Power Cord

NOTE: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this vacuum cleaner 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. Only use outlets near the floor.

Pull the power cord out of the vacuum cleaner to the desired length.
Plug the polarized power cord into a 120 Volt outlet located near the floor.
Make sure the power cord is placed into the cord clip as shown.

To Rewind:

Turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner.
Hold the plug while rewinding to prevent damage or injury from the moving cord.
A slight tug will release the locking pawls in the cord reel, allowing it to retract.

Using Tools

NOTE: Hold the handle to support the vacuum cleaner when using tools and disconnecting or attaching the hose.

Disconnect the hose from the vacuum cleaner.
Pull the hose gently in the direction of the arrow to disconnect.
It may be necessary to slightly twist the hose handle to loosen it from the hose holder.
Attach crevice tool or Air Turbine as needed.

Thermal Protector

This vacuum cleaner has a thermal protector that automatically trips to protect the vacuum cleaner from overheating.
If a clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor, the thermal protector turns the motor off automatically. This allows the motor to cool to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.

TO CORRECT PROBLEM:

Turn the vacuum cleaner off and unplug the power cord from the outlet to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool and the thermal protector to reset.
Check for and remove clogs, if necessary (See "Removing Clogs" p. 42). Also, check and replace any clogged filters and empty the dust bin, if necessary.
Wait approximately fifty (50) minutes and then plug the vacuum cleaner in and turn it back on to see if the motor protector has reset.
