IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using your
vacuum, basic precautions should be followed, including
the following:
WARNING!
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to
be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number
of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave the
ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-
N-Go in either ACC mode or engine running (ON)
unless you are using the vacuum system. Be aware a
child could operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle when the vacuum system is in
use. ALWAYS push ignition button to place ignition
in the OFF mode when finished using the vacuum
system.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, serious injury or death:
• Do not use vacuum while vehicle is in motion or
while driving.
• Do not vacuum wet surfaces or any liquids.
• Do not use to vacuum up anything outside of the
vehicle.
• Do not vacuum any flammable liquids, such as
gasoline, or use around explosive vapors. Vapors
from flammable liquids may form an explosive mix-
ture with air and can be ignited by heat, sparks, or
flames. Vapors may travel to a source of ignition and
explode.
• Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking,
such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes/embers.
