HOW TO USE POWER NOZZLE
OPERATION
1. Turning on the Power Brush
The power brush can only be turned on if the
canister is also turned on (canister on / off
switch is located on the main body). The
power brush on / off switch is located on the
hose handle. Simply press the switch forward
to engage the power brush.
To achieve best cleaning results, slowly pass
the power brush back and forth over the carpet
or floor.
2. Using the Power Brush
After turning on the canister and power brush,
release the wand by pressing the left pedal on
the back side of the power brush (see diagram
3. Remove / Insert the Wand From The Power
Brush
Removing the wand from the power brush
allows you, for example, to use cleaning tools
for baseboard or ceiling cleaning. To do this,
first turn the power brush and canister off.
Then, press the wand release collar (see
diagram 5) and pull the wand out. To reinsert
the wand into the power brush, simply press
the wand back into the neck of the power
brush.
The wand will then "click" back into place.
4. Carpet Height Adjustment
Your power brush has six different settings to
clean a variety of carpet types and floor
surfaces. To adjust the carpet height setting of
the power brush, press the right pedal located
on the back of the power brush (see diagram
6). Each press of this pedal will adjust the
height to the next carpet height position.
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:
Setting: Intended Use:
1. XHI Very thick or plush carpet
2. HI Thick or plush carpet
3. Auto General carpet thickness and bare
floors
4. MED Average plush carpet
5. LO Thin plush carpet
6. XLO Low nap carpet (indoor/outdoor type
carpet)
Carpet Height Notes: When using the power
brush, start on the "auto" setting. If pushing the
power brush forward feels sluggish or hard to
push, then adjust to a higher setting (ie HI or
XHI). If the power brush feels very easy to push,
you may want to lower the power brush for more
effective cleaning. The "Auto" setting is the
recommended setting for hard floor surfaces (ie
tile, vinyl, wood).
