HOW TO USE POWER NOZZLE

OPERATION

1.Turning on the Power Nozzle

The power nozzle can only be turned on if the canister is also turned on (canister on / off switch is located on the main body). The power nozzle on / off switch is located on the handle. Simply press the power nozzle button to engage the power nozzle.

To achieve best cleaning results, slowly pass the power nozzle back and forth over the carpet or floor.

2.Using the Power Nozzle

After turning on the canister and power nozzle, release the wand by pressing the left pedal on the back side of the power nozzle (see diagram 3)

4.Carpet Height Adjustment

Your power nozzle has six different settings to clean a variety of carpet types and floor surfaces. To adjust the carpet height setting of the power nozzle, press the right pedal located on the back of the power nozzle (see diagram 6). Each press of this pedal will adjust the height to the next carpet height position.

To determine which setting you are currently on, locate and look through the height indicator window on the top of the unit (see diagram 7). You will see one of the six settings as mentioned earlier and detailed below:

3.Remove / Insert the Wand From The Power Nozzle

Removing the wand from the power nozzle allows you, for example, to use cleaning tools for baseboard or ceiling cleaning. To do this, first turn the power nozzle and canister off. Then, press the wand release collar (see diagram 5) and pull the wand out. To reinsert the wand into the power nozzle, simply press the wand back into the neck of the power nozzle. The wand will then "click" back into place.

Carpet Height Notes: When using the power nozzle, start on the "auto" setting. If pushing the power nozzle forward feels sluggish or hard to push, then adjust to a higher setting (i.e. HI or XHI). If the power nozzle feels very easy to push, you may want to lower the power nozzle for more effective cleaning. The "Auto" setting is the recommended setting for hard floor surfaces (i.e. tile, vinyl, wood).
