SUGGESTED PILE HEIGHT SETTINGS
For best deep down cleaning, use the XLO
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. Suggested settings are:
HI - Shag, deep pile, or scatter rugs.
MED “ Medium to deep pile.
LO - Low to medium pile
XLO “ Most carpets and bare floors.
