How to use
Handle adjustments
The handle has two positions
when used with the power noz-
zle:
Upright
and
Operating.
To lower handle to the Operating
position, place your foot on the
power nozzle and push the han-
dle down.
Automatic nozzle
adjustment
The power nozzle adjusts auto-
matically to effectively clean hard
surface floors and all carpet from
low pile to shag.
However, the nozzle is not rec-
ommended for very irregular
floor surfaces such as brick,
slate and certain parquet
floors. To clean these floors,
use the Wall/Floor Brush.
It is suggested that you use the
power nozzle with the Suction
Regulator closed for full suction.
If the power nozzle is difficult to
push, open the Suction Regula-
tor.
Edge cleaning
Brushed
edge cleaning is provid-
ed on the right side of the nozzle
to remove imbedded dirt in carpet
near baseboards and furniture.
Guide the right side of the nozzle
parallel to the edge of the carpet or
furniture for brushed edge clean-
ing.
Standard
edge cleaning is pro-
vided on the left side of the nozzle
to remove surface dust and litter.
Guide the left side of the nozzle
parallel to the edge of the carpet
for standard edge cleaning.

Removing larger items from carpet and floor surfaces before vacuuming
will help maintain the cleaning effectiveness of your cleaner. However, if
loss of suction power should occur, proceed as follows: make sure Suction
Regulator is closed; check bag for fullness and make sure folds are open;
check hose for obstructions by removing wands and power nozzle, turning
cleaner ON, and feeling end of hose for suction
-
remove any obstruc-
tions; check wands for obstructions by connecting wands to hose, remov-
ing power nozzle from wands, turning cleaner ON and feeling end of
wands for suction
-
remove any obstructions. If loss of suction power still
occurs, check nozzle for obstructions.
Disconnect cleaner from elec-
trical outlet and disconnect
power nozzle from extension
wands.
While holding nozzle, push nozzle
connector down to lowest posi-
tion.
Look into nozzle connector and
remove any obstructions.
