Helpful Information:
Before cleaning under low furniture, check area first for objects that might harm the cleaner or block the vacuum hose.
Floor Type Selector. An adjustment that raises or lowers the cleaner base to match the type of floor surface. With the cleaner cord unplugged, set the adjustment to lowest setting for
maximum carpet cleaning. If the cleaner is difficult to push, move adjustment to next highest setting until cleaner is comfortable to push. The brushroll must reach the carpet for
effective cleaning. For ease in moving the adjustment knob,
place handle in operating position and tilt cleaner back to remove weight from front wheels.
11Store the dusting brush.
Helpful Information:
Listen to your cleaner. If you notice a change in the sound of the motor or a change in performance, it could simply indicate a common usage or maintenance issue, such as: a need to raise or lower the carpet height adjustment; possible blockage in hose or brushroll area; or a broken or loose brushroll belt. These are all easy to fix and the instructions are included in this handbook. Becoming familiar with the information in this guide will help you to get the best possible performance from your new cleaner for many years to come.
