To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). The 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 electri-
cian to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Afin de réduire le risque de choc électrique, cet appareil est muni d’une fiche polari-
sée (une des lames est plus large). Cette fiche ne peut être insérée dans une prise
polarisée que d’une seule façon. Si la fiche ne peut être insérée dans la prise, retourner
la fiche. Si la fiche ne peut toujours pas être insérée dans la prise, faire installer une
prise adéquate par un électricien qualifié. Ne pas modifier la fiche.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The bag may have become dislodged in shipping. Check the bag to insure proper
seating before attempting to use the cleaner. Do not operate the cleaner without a
dust bag. Damage may result to the motor (see Dust Bag).

The cleaner is designed to pick up dirt and dust particles. Avoid picking up hard or sharp
objects with the cleaner to avoid bag breakage, hose clogging, or possible motor damage.

Automatic Motor Shut-Off

To protect from overheating, this vacuum cleaner is equipped with a thermostat which
automatically shuts off the motor if it overheats. Should this happen:
1. Turn off the switch and unplug the cleaner because the thermostat will allow

the cleaner to automatically start running again when the motor cools (approximately
30 minutes);

2. Check the hose, bag, and filters as a clogged hose, full bag, or dirty filters could

cause the motor to overheat; and

3. Call a Eureka Service Station if the cleaner will not operate after cooling for

approximately 30 minutes.
