Suggested sweeping pattern For best cleaning action, the rug/floor nozzle should be pushed straight away from you and pulled straight back. This pattern should be continued across the rug with slow, gliding motions. NOTE: Fast, jerky strokes do not provide complete cleaning. Carpeted stairs need to be vacuumed regularly. For best cleaning results, keep the airflow passage open. Check occasionally for clogs. See HOW YOUR VACUUM WORKS section. Unplug from outlet before checking. SUCTION CONTROL The handle air flow regulator allows you to change the vacuum suction for different fabric and carpet weights. Adjust the suction power with Air Flow Regulator in the handle. PERFORMANCE INDICATOR When the unit is running, the indicator will be clear if there are no clogs. When the indicator turns completely red, check if the dust bin is full or if other areas are clogged. See HOW YOUR VACUUM WORKS. Indicator Oos'ef HOSE SWIVEL The hose swivel prevents the hose from twisting. This is helpful for cleaning in small areas. NOTE: Indicator may turn red when using attachments or when cleaning new carpet. This is due to reduced airflow caused by the vacuum seal between attachment and surface, or new carpet fuzz filling the dust bin quickly. Restore airflow by raising attachment slightly from surface you are cleaning, or empty dust bin if it is full. -8-
