F11.93 - Consumer Information

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 The user must understand how to operate and maintain the equipment to achieve satisfactory cleaning results. Since the manufacturers are the prime source of this information, it is their responsibility to provide instructions for specific models. Clear, concise, simple (but complete) instructions for the safe use and maintenance will encourage users to read the information and follow proper procedures. This will increase user satisfaction, minimize safety problems, and decrease complaints.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice identifies the information to be provided through the use and care booklet accompanying a particular model of vacuum cleaner.  
1.2 Included is information that the user needs to operate and maintain the vacuum cleaner and the attachments provided in a proper and safe manner.  
1.2.1 Similar information is included for attachments that are sold separately.  
1.3 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

ABSTRACT
This practice identifies the method of presenting information on selected performance and physical characteristics of a vacuum cleaner. Information will be presented to consumers in the form of a buyer's guide, with cleaner characteristics as follows: brand, model number, weight of cleaner, bag capacity, maximum cleaning distance from outlet, cleaning ability, embedded dirt, maneuverability, maximum air power, quietness, and durability.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice identifies the method of presenting information on selected performance and physical characteristics of a residential vacuum cleaner.  
1.2 This information is intended to assist the consumer in comparing selected characteristics of vacuum cleaner models.  
1.3 It is also intended that this information be presented in a manner that is meaningful and understandable to the consumer.  
1.4 The characteristics are selected from those for which ASTM test methods have been developed.  
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
