Q

HOW DO I CLEAN OTHER HOME FURNISHINGS?

A

Books and Bookcases:

1. Convert to a canister. (See page 16.)
2. Attach the Duster Brush to the end of the Attachment Hose and “dust” the books and bookcase.
3. Other options include using an Extension Tube with the Duster Brush or the Wall &

Ceiling Brush to dust the bookcase top.
Lampshades and Pictures:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 16.)
2. Attach the Duster Brush to the Suction Control Grip. Then connect the grip to the Attachment

Hose. Test the airflow by regulating the Suction Control Valve on the Suction Control Grip

before you dust your lampshades. Dust glass-covered artwork and picture frames.
Narrow Openings:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 16.)
2. Attach the Duster Brush to the Suction Control Grip. Then connect the grip to the

Attachment Hose. Test the air-flow by regulating the Suction Control Valve on the Suction

Control Grip before you dust your home electronics.
3. Connect the Inflator/Deflator tool to the end of the Attachment Hose to dust hard-to-reach

small spaces.
Wicker Furniture and Baskets:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 16.)
2. Attach the Duster Brush to the end of the Attachment Hose. Your Duster Brush works well

between cracks and crevices on wicker and other irregular surfaces.
Drapes and Blinds:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 16.)
2. For drapes, attach one or two Extension Tubes to the Attachment Hose. Connect the Suction

Control Grip to the Extension Tube and then connect the Upholstery Nozzle (with the faceplate

attached). Test the air-flow by regulating the Suction Control Valve on the Suction Control Grip

before you dust your drapes and blinds.

The Suction Control Valve on the Suction Control Grip regulates airflow and prevents you from

pulling the drapes off the curtain rods.
For blinds, follow a similar procedure using the Duster Brush instead of the Upholstery Nozzle.

If using the Suction Control Grip, make sure to completely close the Suction Control Valve to

maintain maximum airflow.

Q

WHAT SHOULD I DO IF MY FILTER BAG SMELLS?

A

Change it. Replace the disposable bag when the dirt reaches the fill line. Do not overfill.

1. You may also purchase Odorific® II, an odorizer that leaves your room smelling clean and

fresh. Place a few drops on a cottonball and toss it in the Outer Permanent Bag. For a list of

other fine Kirby® products, (see page 48 and 49.)
