Handle adjustments
The handle can be set to one of three positions:
Upright, Middle or Low. To release the handle,
step on the pedal at the left rear corner of the
vacuum cleaner [Fig. 7].
1.
Upright Position: Handle locks in this position
for vacuum cleaner storage [Fig. 7]. The
handle should always be in the upright position
when cleaning tools are used.
2. Middle Position: This position is for normal
cleaning [Fig. 8]. While in the middle position,
the front of the nozzle can be raised for
crossing thresholds between rooms by
lowering the handle.
3. Low Position:
With the handle in the middle
position, press the foot pedal release again
to allow the vacuum to achieve the low
position. This position is used for cleaning
under furniture [Fig. 9].
