HOW TO  USE

The upright vacuum cleaner is designed to be used on multiple types of carpeting. Do
not attempt to use the upright vacuum cleaner on bare floors, 
as damage to the
floor covering may result. Above the floor cleaning tools are available (optional).

Handle Adjustment

With the tip of the foot, press down to
release the handle lock located at the left
rear side of the cleaner. Move the handle
and adjust it to the desired position for
(1) storing upright, (2) operating the
cleaner at a comfortable height for the
user, and (3) cleaning underneath low
furniture.

Power Switch

The power switch is mounted on the
motor hood near the handle.  Switch style
varies by model and may differ from the
illustration. A push with the foot turns the
motor ON; push again to turn the motor
OFF.

Edge Kleener

®

Edge Kleener feature provides for improved cleaning of carpets near walls and stationary
furniture.  Slots on the sides of the nozzle increase air flow to the edges of the cleaner
and add to the cleaning efficiency of the cleaner.  To operate, simply run cleaner along
edge board.  Edge Kleener operates instantly and automatically.

Cord Storage

The cleaner has two convenient cord storage hooks attached to the handle. Wind the
cord around the hooks and fasten the plug to the cord to prevent unwinding.
