Edge cleaning feature

Provides improved cleaning of carpet edges near baseboards and solid furniture. Passages have been added to the sides of the cleaner bottom plate to increase air flow carrying dust from the carpet edge to the nozzle.

From operating position, slowly guide the right side of the cleaner parallel to the edge of the carpet.

Cleaning lightweight flexible rugs

As you approach the edge of the rug, push down on the handle lifting the nozzle completely off the rug, Move the cleaner back to start again, lower the nozzle and use only forward strokes.
