VACUUM POWER CONTROL
The wand end of the deluxe hoses is equipped with a control
ring to regulate suction. The control ring covers a “bleeder”
hole. Open the hole to reduce the suction for cleaning
draperies, small rugs, and other light fabrics. Some very thick,
plush carpets with high density yarns also require reduced
suction to make the nozzle easier to push. Be sure to close the
control ring completely over the hole to produce the maximum
power required for most other cleaning tasks.
WHEN TO EMPTY THE DEBRIS PAIL
Broan model VX3000C has a single indicator light that
remains green. The level of pail fill for this model can be
determined by either viewing through the window on the pail or
releasing the carry handles and checking the level of debris in
the pail.
Broan models VX6000C and VX12000C have the LED
indicators that show the status of the level of debris in the pail.
The first three lights remain green as pail fills. The fourth light
is amber and will come on to alert you that the pail is nearly
full. When the fifth light turns red it is time to empty the pail
(see CONTROL PANEL DIAGRAM A below).
EMPTYING THE DEBRIS PAIL
Your power unit has a permanent filter that is self cleaning
under normal conditions. The filter protects the motor and
stops small dirt particles from escaping to the outside of the
power unit. The filter cleans itself by moving up when the
power unit starts, and dropping down when the unit is turned
off. The filter can be removed by means of a pull-tab for
cleaning if desired. Be sure to reinstall properly. Correct
placement is critical to insure proper protection for the motor.
1. Release both carry handles on side of the unit by pulling
out and then pushing up. (
Fig. 10
). Holding the pail by the
handles, lower it from unit (
Fig. 11
).
2. Carry pail to trash receptacle and empty.
3. Reattach pail using handles.
