and pick-up.

2. Annual energy
usage – the amount of

energy used over a
year.

3. Emissions – the
amount of dust in the
air emitted from the

machine’s exhaust.

4. Noise – the noise
level produced by the
machine, measured in
decibels.

5. Pick up (carpets) –

the rating of how much
dust the machine picks
up from carpets.

6. Pick-up (hard
floors/crevices) – the

rating of how much
dust the machine picks

up from hard floors and
