OPERATION

 

ATTENTION:

  Special  care  is  required  when  vacuuming  certain  types  of  carpet  or  floor  covering. 

Always check the carpet or floor covering manufacturer’s recommended cleaning instructions before 

vacuuming.

 

1.  Ensure the vacuum is switched OFF before selecting a pile height setting. 

2.  Select a pile height setting by tilting 

the cleaner back until front wheels 
are lifted slightly off the floor. 

3.  Turn the adjustment dial to the correct 

setting. This will make some jobs 
easier for carpeted surfaces. 

A – Long Pile: shag carpet, long pile 

plush and scatter rugs 

B – Long to Medium pile carpets 
C – Medium pile carpets 
D – Medium to short pile carpets & 

non carpeted floors 

E – Short Pile carpets & 

non carpeted floors 

4.  It  is  recommended  that  you  adjust  the 

height  to  “Long  Pile’  when  using 
attachments,  so  the  bristles  are  not 
touching the floor surface. 

5.  Plug the unit into a power socket. 

6.  Turn  the  unit  on  by  depressing  the 

ON/OFF  switch  pedal  located  on  the 
left side of the motor base. 

8.  To begin cleaning, the handle needs to be released for easy 

manoeuvring. To release the handle press the handle release 
pedal. 

9.  The  handle  can  move  tilt  to  almost  90°  to  easily  clean  under 

furniture.  Press  the  handle  release  pedal  again  to  adjust  the 
handle to its lowest angle.
