it to the left or right (figure 6).

Release the power cord plug from the power cord and lift the cord off of
the upper cable reel (14).

polarized power cord into a 120 volt outlet located near the floor.

WARNING!
The quality, condition, coating, texture, age and manufacturing technique of all floor surfaces vary. There-
fore, upright vacuums with rotating brushes, including your SEBO, may damage some floor coverings or surfaces. Some types
of high-gloss hardwood floors, cushion vinyl, berber carpets, long shag, and delicate or hand-woven carpets are particularly vul-
nerable to damage by rotating brushes. When possible, consult the materials supplied by your floor’s manufacturer for infor-
mation on proper upkeep and cleaning.
To ensure that your new SEBO vacuum cleaner is compatible with your floor, please
test the vacuum cleaner on each type of flooring surface in a small inconspicuous area to determine if any damage occurs.
If damage occurs, stop using the vacuum cleaner immediately!
Care must be taken to ensure that the bottom of the machine does not contact the floor.
If this happens, damage to the floor could occur.
If damage occurs, stop using the vacuum cleaner immediately!
