Cord Release
Fully unwind the power cord. A yellow mark on the power
cord indicates the recommended cord length. Do not
exceed the cord length beyond the red mark.
On/Off Button
Insert the power plug into the electrical outlet. Ensure the
vacuum cleaner is switched off.
Press the on/off button located on the top of the vacuum
cleaner and press the button again to turn the vacuum
cleaner off.
Carpet Cleaning
For carpet and rug cleaning press the rocker switch on the
combination floor head to raise the brushes.
Hard floor cleaning
For hard floor cleaning, press the rocker switch on the
combination floor head to lower the brushes.
Cord Rewind
To rewind the power cord, press the cord rewind button,
located on the top of the vacuum cleaner, and guide the
power cord with one hand. This will prevent the cord from
whipping which could cause damage or injury.

button and on/off button to move the vacuum cleaner
from room to room.
Hose Storage
For convenience there is a slot located at the rear of the
vacuum cleaner where the floor tool and hose can be
parked for carrying and storage.
