Turning On the Power Nozzle

The power nozzle can only be turned on if the 
canister is also turned on. The canister On/Off  
switch is located on the main body. The 
power nozzle On/Off switch is located on  
the handle. Simply press the switch forward  
to engage the power nozzle.

Reclining the Handle

Press the Handle Release Pedal located on  
the back of the vacuum with your foot to  
recline the handle (Fig. 1).

Removing and Inserting the Wand

Removing the wand from the power nozzle 
allows you to use cleaning tools for baseboard 
or ceiling cleaning. To do this, first turn the 
power nozzle and canister off. Then, press  
the wand release button, pull the wand out 
and turn the canister on (Fig. 2). 

To reinsert the wand into the power nozzle, 
turn off the canister and simply press the 
wand back into the neck of the power nozzle. 
The wand will then click into place. 

Jammed Brushroll Warning Lights 

(Premium model only)

This power nozzle is equipped with a safety 
system that protects it from a jammed 
situation. Items that cause jammed brushrolls 
include socks, excessive threads and corners 
of area rugs. The warning indicator lights in the 
headlight lens will change to flashing red should 
this condition occur (Fig. 3).

•  Turn off the vacuum cleaner and the power 

nozzle then unplug the power cord. 

•  Remove the object preventing the brushroll 

from turning. 

When the unit is turned back on, the red 
warning indicator lights in the headlight lens 
will be off if the jam has been successfully 
removed.

Jammed Brushroll Circuit Breaker

 

(Deluxe Model Only)

This power nozzle is equipped with a circuit 
breaker safety system that protects it from a 
jammed situation.

•  Turn off the vacuum cleaner and the power 

nozzle then unplug the power cord. 

•  Remove the object preventing the brushroll 

from turning. 

•  Locate the circuit breaker switch on the 

back of the power nozzle and press it to 
reset the breaker (Fig. 4).

If the breaker trips again, repeat these steps to 
correct the problem. If this does not correct  

the problem, contact your authorized Riccar  
retailer for further assistance.
