11. 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.
12. KEEP HAIR, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
13. USE EXTRA care when cleaning on stairs.
14. NEVER use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may

attaching the water container to the appliance. Because the turbine operates at high speed, this is to
protect you from coming into contact with the moving HydroTurbine.
