Polarized plug

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not
change the plug in any way.

Check bag indicator

The indicator will show a red light as bag fills
with dirt. There are three conditions that will
cause the indicator to become completely red:
1. The bag is full; change the bag.
2. Very fine materials (such as powder) have
been picked up, clogging the bag pores;
change the bag, even if it is not full.
3. There is a blockage in the nozzle, hose, tools,
or at the bag opening; remove the blockage.

Hard surface floor cleaning
The power nozzle can be used for cleaning
hard surface floors such as wood, linoleum,
vinyl, asphalt and rubber tile, sealed cork,
concrete and terrazzo, as well as carpet.
To set the power nozzle for hard surface floor
cleaning, push the floor surface selector but-
ton toward "OFF" (E). This setting provides
suction and no agitator action. If you prefer,
you may use the hard floor tool to clean bare
floors.
You will find it particularly convenient when
cleaning lightweight area rugs to set the floor
surface selector button on "OFF" and contin-
ue cleaning the surrounding floor surfaces.
Note: The headlight will be ON in both the
"ON" and "OFF" floor surface modes
