Operating Recommendations
This new ORECK XL21 High-Speed Upright is one of the finest, fastest,
and strongest units in its class. You’ll love the way it cleans, gets under
things, and it’s SO lightweight and easy to use.
The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:
1. When inserting a new disposable paper filter dust bag—FIRST
PUFF OUT and OPEN THE BAG.
2. When the disposable filter dust bag is full, REPLACE IT.
3. If at any time the machine does not pick up properly or makes an
unusual noise, STOP OPERATION and service.
4.
Although your upright will pick up pins, paper clips, and other small
objects, it is recommended that these be removed from the floor
before you vacuum. Failure to do so may result in permanent
damage to the motor suction fan and its housing.
5.
W
ARNING:
Do not use your vacuum cleaner on damp or wet
surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum cleaner and is
dangerous to the user. Damage caused by use on wet or damp
surfaces is not covered under warranty.
6.
REPLACE THE BELT EVERY 6 MONTHS, SCENT CARTRIDGE
EVER
Y
MONTH,
AND MOT
OR FIL
TER EVERY 2 MONTHS.
7. Change the disposable filter dust bag at least once a month—even
if it is not full! The collected dust in the dust bag can cause odor,
attract moisture, and can af
fect the efficiency of the cleaner.
8.
DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over the cord. The revolving
brush could damage the cord.
