maintained, please read the following
instructions:
1. Empty the Dust Cup frequently during
use.
2. Always "TapClean" the HEPA dust
cup filter each time the dust cup is
emptied.
3. Ensure that the rotating bristle brush
is kept free of hair and string.
4. Inspect the turbine regularly to ensure
that the air passage is free of dirt and
debris.

How to Adjust for Carpet Height
WARNING:
To avoid injury, keep
loose clothing, hair, fingers and all
other parts of body away from any
moving part (such as the beater brush).
Turn off the switch and unplug the
vacuum before adjusting the vacuum for
the carpet height.
The front of the vacuum cleaner has a
carpet adjustment knob that raises and
lowers the motorized power head to
match the type of carpet. With the
vacuum NOT connected to the electrical
outlet, set the adjustment to the lowest
setting for maximum cleaning. If the
vacuum is too difficult to push, move the
knob to the next highest setting until the
vacuum is comfortable to push. The
beater brush must reach the carpet for
effective cleaning.

particles from re-entering the air you
breathe. Because of this incredible
filtration performance, the HEPA dust
cup filter will quickly accumulate many
fine dust particles inside the white filter
folds that are difficult to see but which
