Q HOW DO I CLEAN OTHER HOME FURNISHINGS?
A Books and Bookcases:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 19.)
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 Brash or the Wall &
Ceiling Brush to dust the bookcase top.
Lampshades and Pictures:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 19.)
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.
Stereos and Computers:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 19.)
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 between the
keys on a computer key board, faceplates on electronic gear and other hard-to-reach
small spaces.
Wicker Furniture and Baskets:
1. Convert to a canister. (See page 19.)
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 19.)
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 Brash 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 64 and 65.)
