CLEANING THE STAIRS

HANDLE PARK

CORD STORAGE

It is dangerous to place the cleaner above you when 

cleaning stairs. Place the cleaner against the bottom 

step facing the stairs.

ALWAYS work with the cleaner below you. 

For more efficient storage remove the handle from 

the main body of the cleaner by pressing the lance 

release button. Remove the lance from the handle 

and return to its original position on the cleaner. 

Park the handle on the side of the cleaner.

Turn the cleaner off and remove the plug. Wind the 

power cord around the cord storage hooks. 

When the handle is in the handle park position wind 

the power cord around the lower cord storage hook 

and the carry handle.

!

IMPORTANT!

  Extra care must be taken when 

using the hose on the stairs.  If the hose 

becomes blocked it can exert a strong pull in 

the direction of the cleaner.
