HOW TO USE POWER NOZZLE  
OPERATION  
1. Turning on the Power Nozzle  
4. Carpet Height Adjustment  
The power nozzle can only be turned on if the  
canister is also turned on (canister on / off  
switch is located on the main body). The  
power nozzle on / off switch is located on the  
handle. Simply press the switch forward to  
engage the power nozzle.  
Your power nozzle has six different settings to  
clean a variety of carpet types and floor  
surfaces. To adjust the carpet height setting of  
the power nozzle, press the right pedal located  
on the back of the power nozzle (see diagram  
6). Each press of this pedal will adjust the  
height to the next carpet height position.  
To achieve best cleaning results, slowly pass  
the power nozzle back and forth over the  
carpet or floor.  
To determine which setting you are currently  
on, locate and look through the height indicator  
window on the top of the unit (see diagram 7).  
You will see one of the six settings as  
mentioned earlier and detailed below:  
2. Using the Power Nozzle  
After turning on the canister and power nozzle,  
release the wand by pressing the left pedal on the  
back side of the power nozzle (see diagram 3)  
Setting: Intended Use:  
1. XHI  
2. HI  
Very plush carpet  
Plush carpet  
3. Auto General carpet thickness or bare  
floors  
4. MED Medium pile carpet  
5. LO  
Low pile carpet  
6. XLO Indoor/Outdoor carpet

3. Remove / Insert the Wand From The Power  
Nozzle  
Removing the wand from the power nozzle  
allows you, for example, to use cleaning tools  
for baseboard or ceiling cleaning. To do this,  
first turn the power nozzle and canister off.  
Then, press the wand release collar (see  
diagram 5) and pull the wand out. To reinsert  
the wand into the power nozzle, simply press  
the wand back into the neck of the power  
nozzle. The wand will then "click" back into  
place.  
Diagram 6  
Diagram 7  
Carpet Height Notes: When using the power  
nozzle, start on the "auto" setting. If pushing the  
power nozzle forward feels sluggish or hard to  
push, then adjust to a higher setting (i.e. HI or  
XHI). If the power nozzle feels very easy to push,  
you may want to lower the power nozzle for more  
effective cleaning. The "Auto" setting is the  
recommended setting for hard floor surfaces (i.e.  
tile, vinyl, wood).

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
This vacuum cleaner should be used for normal, dry household dust and dirt.  
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by use or operation of the vacuum  
contrary to these instructions.  
If the vacuum is wrongly operated for a purpose other than that for which it is intended, no liability can be  
accepted for any possible damage.  
Do not vacuum areas which contain moisture  
or water, flammable matter, needles, pins, razor  
blades, matches, cigarettes, etc., since they  
may damage the vacuum or vacuum bag.  
When rewinding the power cord, hold the plug  
before pressing the cord rewind button to  
prevent the cord from whipping.  
Make sure a vacuum bag and filters are always  
inserted.  
This product is equipped with a polarized  
alternating current line plug (a plug having one  
blade wider than the other). This plug fits into  
the power outlet only one way.  
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to  
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing  
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact  
an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.  
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the  
polarized plug.
