Carpet Height Adjustment
The cleaning of carpet and rugs takes place at the nozzle
(A). When it is necessary to raise and lower the nozzle for
various carpet pile heights, turn the nozzle control knob
(B) to the desired setting (Fig.4/6).
Settings
For maximum cleaning
performance, the following
carpet height settings are
recommended (Fig.4/7):
• Lowest setting for all
types of carpet.
NOTE: If the cleaner is
difficult to push, turn knob
to the next higher setting.
• Higher settings: for very deep pile carpet, where easier
pushing effort is desired, while maintaining good
cleaning performance.

the cleaner is in the upright position. To manually shut
off the brush bar for cleaning hard floors, step on the
pedal (A). The indicator (B) will show red in the “brush bar
