Transporting your cleaner
1.
To move your vacuum cleaner from room
to room, put the handle in the upright
position, tilt the cleaner back on its rear wheels
and push forward.
2
The vacuum cleaner can also be moved by
using the carry handle on the back.
Height Adjustments
There are seven height settings available for vari-
ous floor surfaces. Turn the dial on the foot of
the cleaner to the desired setting.
Lowest setting
– for low pile carpeting or bare
floors. To pick up debris it may be necessary to
move up one setting.
Medium settings
– for medium pile carpet.
High setting
– for high pile and most
shag/frieze carpet.
NOTE: For optimal carpet cleaning perfor-
mance, adjust to the lowest practical setting. If
your cleaner is difficult to push, adjust to the
next higher setting.
If the dial is difficult to turn, tilt the cleaner back
slightly to take the weight off of the foot while
turning.
Suction power indicator
The suction power indicator tells you when the
air flow in your vacuum is reduced due to dirty
filters or a clog in the hose. The suction power
indicator will remain green until the airflow is
reduced. At that time, it begins to change to red.
When the indicator is fully red, the airflow is sig-
nificantly reduced or clogged by a dirty filter.
Follow the steps on page 10 to clean your filters
or there is a clog in the hose. All filters in the
vacuum should be cleaned or replaced when the
suction power indicator turns red. To check and
remove the clog, follow the steps on page 10 to
check for and clear clogs.
NOTE: When your vacuum is turned off, the
suction power indicator with go to the green
color setting. The suction power indicator only
detects reductions in air flow when the vacuum
power is on.
WARNING
The rotating floor brush continues to rotate while tools
are in use. To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts,
always move the cleaner with the carrying handle at the
front of the cleaner. Always place vacuum cleaner on floor
with handle in upright position when using tools. Never
place your fingers under the cleaner when it is running.
Never place powerfoot on furniture or uneven surfaces. Do
not place vacuum cleaner close enough to objects to pull
them into rotating brush.
