Important Safeguards - GE 106727 Guia Del Propietario

Cleaner Safety
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:
• Do not immerse product. Use only on surfaces
moistened by cleaning process.
• Do not use outdoors or expose to rain.
• Use only commercially available floor cleaners
intended for machine application.
• Do not leave carpet shampooer/extractor when
plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug the
electrical cord when not in use and before servicing.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near children.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only
manufacturer's recommended attachments.
• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If carpet
shampooer/extractor is not working properly, has
been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped
into water, return it to a service center immediately.
• 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 carpet shampooer/
extractor over cord. Keep cord away from heated
surfaces.
• Do not use extension cords or outlets with
inadequate current carrying capacity.
• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp
the plug, not the cord.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS CLEANER.
WARNING
• Do not handle plug or carpet shampooer/extractor
with wet hands.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use
with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint,
hair, and anything that may reduce airflow.
• This carpet shampooer/extractor creates suction.
Some models also contain a revolving brush roll.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of
body away from openings and moving parts.
• Do not use without recovery tank in place.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking,
such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• If the machine tips over during use, shut it off
immediately, set it upright, and wait for the motor
to stop completely. This allows the ball float to
return to normal position and permits proper
airflow through the cleaner.
• Do not use to pick up gasoline, acetone, perfumes,
colognes, paint thinners and other flammable
liquids such or use in places where they may be
present.
• Operate and store indoors in an area above 32˚F
where the machine will not freeze.
• Keep your work area well lighted.
