Suggested Pile Height Settings; Pile Height Selection And Settings; Check Bag Indicator - Kenmore 116.31200 Use & Care Manual

SUGGESTED PILE HEIGHT SETTINGS
There are four (4) pile height settings on
the vacuum cleaner. For best deep down
cleaning, use the LO setting. However, you
may need to raise the height to make
some jobs easier, such as scatter rugs and
some deep pile carpets, and to prevent
the vacuum cleaner from shutting off.
Attention: Refer to your carpet
manufacturers cleaning
recommendations. Some more delicate
carpets may require that they be
vacuumed with the agitator turned off to
prevent carpet damage.
Suggested settings are:
HI - Shag, deep pile, or scatter rugs.
MNI - Medium to deep pile.
MLO - Low to medium pile.
LO - Most carpets, bare floors combined
with FLOOR power switch setting,
delicate carpets that require agitator to
be turned off.

To select a pile height setting:
Select a pile height setting by pressing
the HEIGHT ADJUST pedal on the side of
the nozzle. The pile height setting shows
