Hard
surface floor cleaning
The power nozzle can be used for
cleaning hard surface floors such as
wood, linoleum, vinyl, asphalt and rub-
ber tile, sealed cork, concrete and ter-
razzo, as well as carpet,
To set the power nozzle for hard surface
floor cleaning, push the floor surface
selector button toward
"BARE" (E),
This
setting provides suction and no agitator
action, If you prefer, you may use the
wall/floor brush to clean bare floors,
You will find it particularly convenient
when cleaning lightweight area rugs to
set the floor surface selector button on
"BARE"
and continue cleaning the sur-
rounding floor surfaces,
Note:
The headlight will be ON in both
the
"RUG"
and
"BARE"
floor surface
modes.
Edge cleaning
Special edge groomers are provided on
both sides of the nozzle to remove dirt in
carpet near baseboards and furniture,
