OPERATION

5.Warning Light / Dirt Sensor

Your power nozzle comes equipped with a circuit breaker safety system that protects it from a jammed power nozzle situation.

Common items that cause jammed brushrolls include socks, excessive threads, corners of area rugs, etc. The warning indicator light on top of the unit (see diagram 8) will change from green to red should this condition occur.

If the circuit breaker trips:

a. Turn off the vacuum cleaner and power nozzle then unplug the power cord.

b. Remove the object preventing the brushroll from turning.

c. Locate the circuit breaker switch on the back of the power nozzle and press it to reset the breaker (see diagram 9).

d. When the unit is turned back on, the warning light should be green and ready to go. If the breaker trips again, repeat steps a-c again to correct the problem. If this does not correct the problem, contact your authorized vacuum cleaner retailer for further assistance.

6.Dirt Sensor

The warning indicator light will turn orange if the dirt sensor detects dirt in the carpet and will change to green when the carpet is clean.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

1.Removing the Brushroll

IMPORTANT: Before performing any maintenance work on the power nozzle, always unplug the vacuum cleaner and disconnect the wand.

Your brushroll may need to be removed at times, for example, to cut threads that have become tangled around the brushroll or to replace the belt (see "Replacing the Belt").

To remove the brushroll, turn the unit over and lift off the metal bottom plate by first unscrewing the two bottom plate screws located by the rear wheels (see diagram 10). Pull out the belt cover guard (see diagram 11) and pull the brushroll out.

To reinstall the brushroll, reinsert the brushroll back into the unit (make sure the belt is attached properly). Next, insert the belt cover guard. Then, place the metal bottom plate back onto the unit (insert the front end of the bottom plate first). Re-insert the two bottom plate screws and secure.
