Operating Recommendations

This new ORECK XL7 High-Speed Upright is one of the finest, fastest, and strongest units in its class. You’ll love the way it cleans, gets under things, and it’s SO lightweight and easy to use.

The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:

1.	When inserting a new disposable paper filter dust bag—FIRST
	PUFF OUT and OPEN THE BAG.
2.	When the disposable filter dust bag is full, REPLACE IT.
3.	If at any time the machine does not pick up properly or makes an
	unusual noise, STOP OPERATION and service.
4.	Although your upright will pick up pins, paper clips, and other small
	objects, it is recommended that these be removed from the floor
	before you vacuum. Failure to do so may result in permanent
	damage to the motor suction fan and its housing.
5.	WARNING: Do not use your vacuum cleaner on damp or wet
	surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum cleaner and is
	dangerous to the user. Damage caused by use on wet or damp
	surfaces is not covered under warranty.
6.	REPLACE THE BELT EVERY 6 MONTHS, SCENT CARTRIDGE
	EVERY MONTH, AND MOTOR FILTER EVERY 2 MONTHS.
7.	Change the disposable filter dust bag at least once a month—even
	if it is not full! The collected dust in the dust bag can cause odor,
	attract moisture, and can affect the efficiency of the cleaner.
8.	DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over the cord. The revolving
