Operation

Transporting your vacuum

Use the handle on the front to carry the vacuum or place the vacuum in the upright position and tip back to roll on the rear wheels.

Releasing the power cord

The upper and lower cord wraps rotate to allow for quick and easy removal of the power cord.

Fingertip power control

The power button is located at the top of the vacuum handle.

To turn the vacuum on, press

button once.

To turn the vacuum OFF, press

button again.

Note: The rotating brush will not turn on unless the unit is in the reclined position and the brush button is on.

Handle positions

Press the handle release pedal with your foot to recline the vacuum cleaner.

Height adjustment

There are seven height settings available for various floor surfaces. Turn the dial on the foot of the cleaner to the desired setting.

Lowest setting – For low pile carpet or bare floors. To pick up debris it may be necessary to move up one setting.

Medium settings – For medium pile carpet.

High setting – For high pile and most shag carpet.

Note: For optimal carpet cleaning performance, adjust to the lowest practical setting. If your cleaner is difficult to push, adjust to the next higher setting.

If the dial is difficult to turn, tilt the cleaner

back slightly to take the weight off the foot while turning.

ATTENTION:

Some Berber carpets have a tendency to fuzz with wear. Repeated strokes in the same area may aggravate this condition. Consider setting your cleaner on a higher than normal setting for this type of carpet.
