When cleaning bare floors:
Select the "I On" position for
suction only cleaning to avoid
scattering dirt while cleaning.
When cleaning carpets:
Ensure you have pulled the
handle towards you and select
the "II Brush Roll On" position
to agitate the carpet fibers for
deeper cleaning performance.
5 Due to the huge suction
power of this vacuum, it
may become necessary to
adjust the suction release
on the hose. If the vacuum
is difficult to push or pull or
if it is lifting up area rugs,
adjust the suction release by
opening or closing the valve
at the top end of the hose.
Suction Release
Release suction for
easier push and pull
on high pile carpets
and area rugs.
IMPORTANT:
To protect your carpets, the
Brush Roll will only turn on when
you have pulled the handle back
towards you and released the
Motorized Floor Brush.
IMPORTANT:
Your Brush Roll Indicator Light
will illuminate solid green when
brush roll is on, or solid red if
there is a blockage. This feature
is designed to protect your
Lifetime Belt that powers your
Brush Roll. See Checking for
Blockages on page 11.
NOTE: The height of your
Motorized Floor Brush has been
optimized for easy pushing and
superior cleaning on all floor
types, so there is no need to
make any height adjustments as
you transition to different floor &
carpet types.
