back of the vacuum.

Secure plug to the cord to 
prevent unwinding.

Store the extension tubes

in front of the hose.

How To Use

Helpful Information:

Listen 

to your cleaner. If you notice a change in the 

sound of the motor or a change in performance, it could 
simply indicate a common usage or maintenance issue. 
Such as, a need to raise or lower the carpet height 
adjustment, possible blockage in hose or brush roll 
area, or a broken or loose brush roll belt. These are 
all easy to fi x and the instructions are included in this 
handbook. Becoming familiar with the information in this 
guide will help you to get the best possible performance 
from your new cleaner for many years to come.

ON/OFF Switch

International symbol 

I

Handle Release

.

 Step 

on handle release to pull 
handle back to a comfortable 
operating position. To lower 
handle completely to the fl oor, 
depress handle release a 
second time.

Floor Type Selector

. An adjustment that raises or lowers 

the cleaner base to match the type of fl oor surface. With the 
cleaner cord unplugged, set the adjustment to lowest setting for 
maximum carpet cleaning. 

If the cleaner is diffi cult to push, 

move adjustment to next highest setting until cleaner is 
comfortable to push.

 The brush roll must reach the carpet 

for effective cleaning. For ease in moving the adjustment knob, 
place handle in operating position and tilt cleaner back to 
remove weight from front wheels.

Helpful Information:

Before cleaning under low 
furniture, check area fi rst for 
objects that might harm the 
cleaner or block the vacuum 
hose.

WARNING: Avoid injury. Keep loose clothing, hair, 

fingers, and all other parts of body 
away from any moving part (such as the 
revolving brush). Turn off the switch and 
unplug the cleaner before changing the 
fl oor type selector.
