If your appliance is fitted with a nonrewireable BS 1363 plug it must not be used unless a 13 amp (ASTA approved to BS 1362) fuse is fitted in the carrier contained in the plug.

Specialty Tool**

The only tool you’ll need to assemble your vacuum cleaner is a Phillips screwdriver.

Attach handle to vacuum

Some models may have a nonFebreze® filter already installed in the post-motor filter compartment. If you want to use the Febreze® filter while vacuuming, replace the non-Febreze filter with the Febreze® one. See figure A for the location on your vacuum.

1. Locate the carry handle. Remove the

screw packet taped to the carry handle.

2. There are three screws. Two screws

are used to attach the upper handle to the vacuum body. One is for the hose guide/tool caddy.

3. Stand the vacuum upright. From the back

of the vacuum, slide the base of the handle firmly into the grooves at the top of the vacuum body. Continue to push so that there are no gaps and the front of the handle is flush with the vacuum body.

4. Place carrying handle into place on to

the back of the upper handle and insert two screws into the existing holes. Tighten securely with a Phillips screwdriver.

Attach the vacuum hose & tools

1. Attach the 3 hose/tool storage pieces to the

back of the unit.

a. Attach the TurboBrush

/Pet TurboEraser™ holder to the back of the handle by snapping the piece into the unit as shown. Push piece straight in until it snaps into place.

b. Attach the hose clip to the left side of the

back of the vacuum. Insert tab at a 45 degree angle and turn clockwise so it snaps into place.

c. The hose guide/tool caddy should be

attached at the bottom of the back of the vacuum. Slide into place and insert screw into the existing hole. Tighten securely with a Phillips screwdriver.

2. Line up the tabs of the Twist n’ Snap hose

with the corresponding notches and turn clockwise. Slide the end of the hose into the hose grip base. Hose wraps on back of unit as shown on page 4.

3. Place the TurboBrush® Tool or Pet TurboEraser™

Tool (select models only) into its holder from the front of the vacuum.

Power cord

To store the power cord, wrap cord around the upper and lower cord wrap on the side of the vacuum. To release the power cord, rotate the upper cord wrap down and gently pull off cord.

Power switch

The power switch is located just below the carrying handle on the side of the vacuum. Push the rocker switch “ON” (I) to vacuum, and “OFF” (O) when cleaning is complete.

Brush Roll Power

The rotating brush ON/OFF pedal is located on the foot of the vacuum. You can use your foot to engage or disengage this pedal (A). When the brush roll pedal has been engaged, the brush will start rotating. The brush roll should be turned on for most carpeted floors. To turn the brush roll off, disengage the pedal by pressing on it with your foot. We recommend turning off the brush roll for bare floor cleaning to prevent scatter or for other delicate surfaces.

Edge Suction

To make edge cleaning more convenient, remove the hose from the base and attach the crevice tool. Insert the crevice tool into the port on the foot of the vacuum (B). Suction is now diverted to the front corner of the vacuum and you can clean along edges and into corners. It is recommended you turn off the brush roll when using this feature.

CAUTION:

Before using your vacuum, make sure that the dirt container is in the locked position and that all filters (pre-motor and post-motor) are in place. Do not operate your vacuum without these filters.

Tip:

Your vacuum features a quickrelease cord wrap. To remove the power cord quickly and easily, rotate the upper cord wrap towards the floor, and slip the cord off.

Tip:

Do not use extension wand when using the Edge Suction Feature.
