The indicator will begin to show red as

have been picked up, clogging the bag
p o res; change the bag, even if it is not full. 

3. There is a blockage in the nozzle, hose,
tools, or at the bag opening; remove the
b l o c k a g e .

On some models

tion.

grip to the “OFF” position before plugging
c o rd into electrical outlet.

step on ON-OFF pedal.  The POWER
ON light will glow, indicating that the
cleaner can then be controlled at the
hand grip.  Press hand grip switch to
the ON position.

Polarized plug

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other).  This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one
way.  If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug.  If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet.  Do not change
the plug in any way.
