Power Switch 1 2 Press the red power switch with your foot to turn on the unit. Press it again to turn your vacuum off when you've finished cleaning. Press the recline pedal to lean your vacuum back for cleaning. To get even lower, press the recline pedal a second time. When you're finished, lean it all the way back up to lock it into the upright position. NOTE: The floor brush will continue to rotate while you use your vacuum for above floor cleaning. To prevent carpet damage, do not lean on the vacuum or let the powerfoot tilt forward. Height Adjustment You can easily raise or lower your vacuum to adjust to different flooring types. Simply turn the knob towards the desired flooring type. If your vacuum becomes too difficult to push, just move to a higher setting. NOTE: Some frieze and berber carpets have long delicate fibers or threads that may be damaged by rotating brush. Repeated strokes in the same area may enhance this condition. WARNING Before using you vacuum, make sure the bag and filter are in place and the bag door is secure. DO NOT operate your vacuum without the bag and filter. WARNING The rotating floor brush continues to rotate while tools are in use. To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts, always move the cleaner with the carry handle at the front of the unit. Always place the cleaner on the floor with the handle in the upright position when using tools. Never place your fingers under the cleaner when it is running. Never place the powerfoot on furniture or uneven surfaces. Do not place vacuum cleaner close enough to objects to pull them into rotating brush. 6 www.BISSELL.com
