OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Carpet Height Adjustment WARNING: To avoid injury, keep loose clothing, hair, fingers and all other body parts away from any moving part (such as the beater brush). Make sure the vacuum is turned off and unplugged before adjusting the carpet height adjustment knob. ATTENTION: Special care is required when vacuuming certain types of carpet or floor covering. Always check the carpet or floor covering manufacturer’s recommended cleaning instructions before vacuuming.

On the front of the power nozzle there is a carpet height adjustment knob that raises and lowers the motorized power nozzle to match the type of carpet or floor surface. (Fig. 4)

Fig. 4

Note: DO NOT press down on the power nozzle while turning the knob. This upright vacuum can be used on multiple types of carpeting, bare floors or upholstery with accessories. Place the vacuum in the upright position and use the highest setting when using the accessories. Doing this will help prevent possible floor damage as the beater brush will continue to brush the same area of the floor while you are using the accessories. Set the height adjustment knob to the lowest setting for maximum cleaning. If the vacuum is too difficult to push, turn the knob to the next highest setting. The beater brush must reach the carpet for effective cleaning.

Note: When changing the height of the power nozzle, it will only be noticeable when the handle is released.

Suggested Pile Height Setting: You may need to raise or lower the height of the vacuum depending on the surface being vacuumed, such as scatter rugs and longer pile carpets. Suggested settings are:

Highest	accessories
High	shag carpet, long pile,
	plush scatter rugs
Med	medium to long pile
Low	short to medium pile,
	bare floors
Floor	very low pile, bare floors

Emptying the Dust Cup (Container)

WARNING: Always unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet before removing the dust cup (container), filter or performing maintenance or trouble shooting checks.

CAUTION: Never allow the amount of debris in the dust cup to exceed the MAX line on the side of the dust cup. Note: For best results, clean your dust cup, filters and pre-motor filter frame regularly. When suction appears reduced, it may be due to a dirty dust cup, dust cup screen, pre-motor filter or pre-motor filter frame. We recommend washing the pre-motor filter and pre- motor filter frame once every three (3) months and replacing the pre-motor filter once every year or as needed.

IMPORTANT:

•DO NOT use the vacuum without the dust cup, dust cup screen, filter or pre-motor filter frame in place.

•DO NOT use detergents to wash the dust cup, dust cup screen, filter or pre-motor filter frame.

•DO NOT wash the dust cup, dust cup screen, filter or pre-motor filter frame in the dishwasher.

•Ensure that all parts are COMPLETELY dry before replacing into the main body. Allow the pre-motor filter and pre-motor filter frame to air dry for 24 hours.

•DO NOT DRY ANY PARTS IN THE DRYER.
