SUCTION CONTROL

The suction control atlows

you to change the vacuum

suction for

different fabrics suctionSuction

and carpet

weights. Opening the control decreases suction for draperies and lightweight rugs, while closing the control increases suction for upholsteries and carpets.

THERMALPROTECTOR

This vacuum cleaner has a thermal

protector which automatically trips to protect the vacuum cleaner from overheating° If a clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor, the thermal protector turns the motor off automatically This allows the motor to cool in order to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.

To correct problem: Turn the vacuum

cleaner off and unplug the power cord from the outlet to allow the vacuum

cleaner to cool and the thermal protector

to reset. Check for and remove clogs, if

necessary. Also check and replace any clogged filters. Wait approximately

thirty (30) minutes and plug the vacuum cleaner in and turn back on to see if the

motor protector has reset.

POWERMATE STORAGE

The wand has a "U" shaped

flange that slides

into

the

"U" shaped slot on

the

canister,

"_

The flange allows the wands and PowerMate to be stored with the canister to conserve

storage space. The canister must be stored on end for this feature to be used_

To attach the PowerMate, it must be in the flat position as shown in the illustration. Use the handle release pedal to place it in this position.

The wand will slip out of the slot as it is lifted up for use and will slide into the slot as it is lowered for storage.

STAIR GRIP

During normal operation while the canister is in the horizontal position, the caster wheel rotates freely 360 °

The Stair Grip feature allows the caster wheel to lock in

position when the vacuum cleaner is rotated 25 °

from horizontal into a vertical position in order for the canister to rest on stairs

 

 

HOW YOUR VACUUM CLEANER WORKS

!

The vacuum cleaner creates suction that

 

 

 

picks up dirt° Rapidly moving air carries the

 

 

 

dirt to the dust bag through the airflow pas-

 

 

 

sages_ The dust bag lets the air pass

 

 

 

through, while it traps the dirt.

 

 

 

For best cleaning results, keep the air-

 

 

 

flow passage

open

Check the starred

 

Motor

 

areas occasionally

for clogs. Turn off
