Cleaning lightweight rugs

To clean lightweight flexible rugs, stand on one end of rug and move cleaner toward other end or edge. Before reach- ing edge, push down on handle. This will lift up the nozzle (front of cleaner) and will prevent rug from clinging to cleaner. Continue to lift up nozzle so that when you have reached the edge, it is completely off the rug. Move cleaner back to start again, lower nozzle, and use only forward strokes.
