4. How to Operate
Cord Release
Release the power cord by turning the quick cord release.
The cord should be inserted into the cord guide while
vacuuming to keep it out of the way.
Adjustment for Different Floor Types
Rotate the height adjust lever to match the surface being
cleaned (Fig.4/1).
NOTE: For easiest adjustment, place cleaner in full
upright position.
CAUTION: The brushbar continues to rotate at
all times while the vacuum cleaner is on. Keep
hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of the body
away from the brush area while the vacuum cleaner
is on. The vacuum cleaner must be in the upright
position to lift the rotating brushbar off the carpet
when cleaning above the floor. Vax recommend that
the brushbar height adjust is turned to its highest
position when using the tools.
On/off Pedal
Plug the cord into the electrical outlet. Turn the vacuum
cleaner on by depressing the foot switch located on the
back left side of the vacuum cleaner (Fig.4/2A). The
vacuum cleaner can be turned off by pressing the on/off
switch again.
Handle Release Pedal
To release the handle, push the handle release pedal
located on the lower left side of the cleaner (Fig.4/2B).
Carpet Cleaning
Move the handle to the desired position for storage (A),
and normal operation (B). De-press the handle release
pedal again to clean under furniture (C) (Fig.4/3).
IMPORTANT: This vacuum cleaner is not
intended for use on hard floors. The powerful
rotating brushbar is designed to groom carpet pile and
could cause damage to some hard floor types.
