CONSEILS DE SÉCURITÉ  
Lors de l’utilisation d’un appareil électrique, quelques précautions élémentaires doivent  
être observées, incluant les suivantes:  
LISEZ TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D’UTILISER VOTRE ASPIRATEUR.  
AVERTISSEMENT  
Pour réduire le risque de feu, de choc électrique ou de blessure:  
N’utilisez pas l’aspirateur à l’extérieur ou sur une surface mouillée.  
N’utilisez jamais l’aspirateur ou le chargeur s’ils ont été endommagés. Si l’aspirateur  
ne fonctionne pas comme il le faut, s’il a été échappé, s’il a été endommagé, s’il a  
été laissé à l’extérieur, s’il a été échappé dans de l’eau, retournez-le à un centre de  
service avant de l’utiliser.  
Pour éviter que l’aspirateur surchauffe, ou que l’aspirateur ou les piles soient  
endommagés, n’utilisez pas l’aspirateur lorsqu’il est encore dans son support de  
recharge.  
Ne permettez pas que l’aspirateur soit utilisé comme un jouet. Une attention  
particulière est nécessaire lorsqu’il est utilisé par ou près d’un enfant.  
Suivez les recommandations d’utilisation de ce manuel.  
Pour recharger l’aspirateur, utilisez uniquement le chargeur qui l’accompagne –  
Eureka modèle nº 35-15-150A pour 120 volt.  
Ne pas tirer l’aspirateur ou le transporter par le cordon. Ne pas utiliser le cordon en  
guise de poignée. Ne pas fermer une porte sur le cordon ou tirer le cordon sur des  
bordures ou des coins pointus. Tenir le cordon à distance des surfaces chauffantes.  
Ne pas utiliser des rallonges ou des prises qui n’ont pas une capacité suffisante  
pour transporter le courant.  
Ne pas débrancher en tirant sur le cordon. Pour débrancher, empoignez le chargeur  
et non pas le cordon.  
Ne pas manipuler le chargeur ou l’aspirateur avec les mains mouillées.  
NE PAS MUTILER OU INCINERER LES PILES. LES PILES EXPLOSENT A DES  
TEMPERATURES EXCESSIVES.  
Il peut y avoir des fuites des éléments des piles lorsque celles-ci sont soumises à  
des conditions d’emploi excessif ou de température excessive. Si le liquide touche  
la peau (1) laver tout de suite la peau avec de l’eau et du savon (2) Neutraliser avec  
un acide doux, tel que le jus de citron ou le vinaigre. Au cas de contact avec les  
yeux, nettoyer à grande eau pour un minimum de 10 minutes. Cherchez des soins  
médicaux.  
La borne de l’aspirateur doit être maintenue propre et libre de tout autre objet. Il n’y  
a aucun risque de choc électrique de la borne elle-même, mais une brûlure est  
possible si des objets en métal sont introduits dans la borne.  
Cet aspirateur crée de la succion. Tenir les parties mobiles et les ouvertures loin des  
cheveux, des habits, des doigts et de toute partie du corps.  
Ne pas ramasser des objets qui brûlent ou fument comme des cigarettes, des  
allumettes ou les cendres chaudes.  
Ne pas utiliser sans que le filtre ne soit installé. Lors de réparations ou d’entretien, il  
ne faut jamais mettre les doigts, ou autres objets, près du ventilateur dans le cas où  
l’aspirateur serait accidentellement mis en marche.  
Portez une attention particulière lorsque vous nettoyez les escaliers.  
Ne pas utiliser pour ramasser des liquides inflammables ou combustibles comme de  
l’essence. Ne pas utiliser dans les endroits où ces liquides pourraient être présents.  
Situez le support pour l’aspirateur à l’intérieur, dans un endroit frais, sec et protégé  
pour éviter le choc électrique ou les dommages.  
Travaillez toujours dans un endroit bien éclairé.  
Débranchez les appareils électriques avant de les nettoyer avec l’aspirateur.  
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL INFORMATION  
The cordless vacuum cleaner is the answer for quick, convenient, and easy cleanups.  
Grab the cordless cleaner for convenience rather than using a larger cleaner. Always  
have the battery recharging either in the unit or out of the unit to provide a ready charge.  
Charge for 14-16 hours before first use.  
Batteries could lose charge in shipping.  
It is best to charge the batteries when temperatures are between 32°F (0°C) and 104°F  
(40°C). Other temperatures could damage batteries.  
While charging, the charger may become warm to the touch. This is a normal condition  
and does not indicate a problem.

dispose of the battery pack.

Warranty Service Station. To learn the address of the nearest factory  
service center call 1-800-282-2886.
