Cleaning lightweight
flexible rugs
Stand on one end of rug and move
cleaner toward other end or edge.
Before reaching edge, push down on
handle. This will lift up the nozzle (front
of cleaner) as shown and will prevent
rug from clinging to cleaner. Continue to
lift up nozzle so that when you have
reached the edge, it is completely off
the rug. Move cleaner back to start
again, lower nozzle, and use only for-
ward strokes.
Edge cleaning
Edge cleaning is provided on both sides
of the nozzle to remove dirt in carpet
near baseboards and furniture.
Guide either side of nozzle parallel to
edge of carpet or furniture.
Cleaning tools
Tools allow for cleaning surfaces above
the floor and for reaching hard to clean
areas.
The cleaner is ready for tool use when

CAUTION: Agitator continues to
rotate while cleaner handle is in
upright position. Avoid tipping clean-
er or setting it on furniture, fringed
area rugs or carpeted stairs during
