upper cord wrap down and gently pull off cord.
Power switch

carrying handle on the side of the vacuum.
push the rocker switch “ON” (I) to vacuum,
and “OFF” (O) when cleaning is complete.
Brush Roll Power
the rotating brush on/off pedal is located on
the foot of the vacuum. you can use your foot to
engage or disengage this pedal (a). When the
brush roll pedal has been engaged, the brush
will start rotating. the brush roll should be turned
on for most carpeted floors. to turn the brush roll
off, disengage the pedal by pressing on it with
your foot. We recommend turning off the brush
roll for bare floor cleaning to prevent scatter or
for other delicate surfaces.
Edge Suction
to make edge cleaning more convenient,
remove the hose from the hose wand base
and attach the crevice tool. insert the crevice
tool into the port on the foot of the vacuum (b).
suction is now diverted to the front corner of
the vacuum and you can clean along edges
and into corners. it is recommended you turn
off the brush roll when using this feature.
CAUTION:
Before using your vacuum,
make sure that the dirt con-
tainer is in the locked position
and that all filters (pre-motor
and post-motor) are in place.
Do not operate your vacuum
without these filters.
NOTICE:
The brush roll continues to rotate while
using your vacuum for above floor
cleaning. To prevent carpet damage,
turn the brush roll off and do not lean
on vacuum or tilt forward.
Tip:
your vacuum features a quick-
release cord wrap. to remove the
power cord quickly and easily,
rotate the upper cord wrap towards
the floor, and slip the cord off.
Tip:
do not use extension wand when
using the edge suction feature.
