4. How to Operate

Turn the vacuum cleaner on by pressing the on/off switch
located on the lower right side of the cleaner (Fig.4/1).

The cleaner can be turned off by pressing the on/off
switch again.

Adjusting the Angle of the Main Body

To adjust the angle of the vacuum cleaner body, push the
recline pedal on the lower left side of the cleaner (Fig.4/2).
Move the handle to the desired position. (A) for
upright position, (B) for normal operation and (C) to clean
under furniture (Fig.4/2).

Brushbar Height Adjuster

The front of the vacuum cleaner has a brushbar height
adjuster that raises and lowers the brushbar to suit the
type of carpet. With the cleaner NOT connected to the
electrical outlet, and when the vacuum is in the upright
position set the adjustment to the lowest setting for
maximum cleaning. If the cleaner is difficult to move, push
the knob to the next highest setting until the vacuum is
comfortable to push. The brushbar must reach the carpet
for effective cleaning.(Fig.4/3).

IMPORTANT

: When the vacuum cleaner is stood in

the upright position or when using the hose and

tools, the brushbar height adjuster must be set to the
highest position.

WARNING:

To avoid injury, keep loose clothing, hair,

fingers and all other parts of the body away from

any moving part (such as the brushbar). Turn off the
switch and unplug the cleaner before adjusting the
cleaner for the carpet height.
