HELPFUL HINTS

Don’t Pick Up Tacks Your cleaner is powerful. It can pick up tacks, pins, paper clips, etc. How- ever, hard sharp objects should not be picked up by the cleaner. They may clog or damage the hose and the throw-away bag.

Take Care of The Cord Wind it loosely, on the cover latch and knob on Suction Control Dial, to avoid strain. Snap clip-on plug onto cord. To remove cord, turn cover latch. (See inset). Don’t run cleaner over the cord - it may damage the insulation.

The Bag Indicator (“CHECK BAG”) located on the front of the cleaner, makes it convenient for you to know when the disposable bag should

be changed. The indicator will normally disappear when the motor is turned on and the Dial-A- Matic is used for cleaning carpets. If the “CHECK BAG” indicator appears when the cleaner is being used on carpets, the cleaner is not operating satisfactorily. You should:

1.Replace bag. (Fig. 3, Page 7) In some cases the bag may not be filled to capacity; but due to variation in size and type of dirt particles, the bag has ceased to filter satisfactorily.

2.Check secondary filter. (Fig. 3)

3.Check nozzle hose. (Fig. 1, Page 7)

NOTE: The “CHECK BAG” indicator may be visible when cleaning tools are used. This does not necessarily mean that the cleaner is not operating satisfactorily. This can be checked by temporarily turning the dial to CARPET SUCTION position and checking the indicator. If it disappears, the bag does not need to

be replaced.

The Secondary Filter protects the motor from dirt. Before installing a new bag, check filter. Dirt spilled in the bag housing will accumulate on the filter and may restrict motor performance. To clean filter, remove wire holder and lift out filter. Tap against the opening for receiving/the cleaning tools with the suction dial set for cleaning tool use. Replace in bag housing and secure with holder.
