(On model series: 7482 & 2412)
The rotating brush On/Off pedal is located on
the front of the vacuum base. You can use your
foot to engage or disengage this pedal (
a
).
When the brush roll pedal has been engaged,
the brush will start rotating. The brush roll should
be turned on for most carpeted floors. To turn the
brush roll off, disengage the pedal by pressing
on it with your foot. We recommend turning off
the brush roll for bare floor cleaning to prevent
scatter or for other delicate surfaces.
transporting cleaner
1.
To move your cleaner from room to room, put
the handle in the upright position, tilt the cleaner
back on its rear wheels and push forward.
2.
The cleaner can also be moved by using the
carrying handle.
Suction power Indicator
(On model series: 2412)
The suction power indicator tells you when the
air flow in your vacuum is reduced due to dirty
filters or a clog in the hose. The suction power
indicator will remain green until the airflow is
reduced. At that time, it begins to change to red.
When it is fully red, the airflow is significantly
reduced by a dirty filter or clog. Follow the steps
on page 12 for clearing a clog. Follow the steps
on pages 9 and 10 to clean your filters. All filters
in the vacuum should be cleaned or replaced
when the clean filter indicator turns red.
notE: When your vacuum is turned off, the
suction power indicator will go to the green
color setting. the suction power indicator
only detects reductions in airflow when the
vacuum power is on.
WaRnInG
The rotating floor brush continues to rotate while tools
are in use. To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts,
always move the cleaner with the carrying handle at the
back of the cleaner. Always place vacuum cleaner on floor
with handle in upright position when using tools. Never
place your fingers under the cleaner when it is running.
Never place powerfoot on furniture or uneven surfaces. Do
not place vacuum cleaner close enough to objects to pull
them into rotating brush.
notIcE
The floor brush will continue to rotate while you use your
vacuum for above floor cleaning. To prevent carpet damage,
do not lean on the vacuum or let the powerfoot tilt forward.
» Hair, string and small objects
can block the vacuum
hose or tools. Check them
occasionally for obstructions.
