Upright & Portable Cleaner
PORTABLE CLEANER SET-UP (cont)
4
Bend the Filtration Bag Assembly (1) in half and insert
the Bag Latch Tab (2) into the slot on the Portable
Handle until it snaps into place.
You are now ready for portable power cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use portable mode on upholstered furniture.
CARPETED STAIRS
Place your Sentria
system on one of the carpeted steps, while
supporting the rear. Turn the unit on after it is in place and make
sure the Tech Drive
®
pedal is in the Neutral position.
Roll the cleaner back and forth so that the Brush Roll
agitates the carpeting and loosens the dirt.
MATTRESS CLEANING
Cleaning mattress surfaces is done the same as carpeted
stairs, except that you need to disengage the Brush Roll. (If
your mattress has tufted buttons on the surface, the Brush
Roll could pull them loose.)
NOTE: Do not carry the portable unit with the motor on. Place
the unit on the surface you wish to clean and then turn the unit
on. Turn the unit off to move it to a new location.
For straight suction cleaning, raise the Headlight Hood (21)
and flip out the handle on the Belt Lifter (20). Use it to turn
the Belt Lifter all the way to the left (counter-clockwise)
until the red arrows line up. This will stop the Brush Roll
from turning.
Return the handle on the Belt Lifter to its closed position
and lower the Headlight Hood. Use the Toe-Touch Control
to adjust the Power Nozzle to its lowest setting.
/!\ CAUTION:
To reduce risk of injury in the portable mode, keep hair and loose clothing
away from the Sentria system while in operation.
Also make sure Tech Drive
®
pedal is in the neutral position when
vacuuming stairs and mattresses. In addition, the Brush Roll should
be disengaged when vacuuming mattresses.
