3Press the On/Off switch (b) to the “I” position to vacuum bare floors (straight suction only) or to the “II” position to engage the motorized floor brush (for vacuuming carpets and rugs). (Fig. 10)
IMPORTANT: The motorized brush indicator light
(c) will illuminate green when motorized floor brush is on, or red if there is a blockage or jam. (Fig. 10) This feature is designed to protect your Lifetime Belt that powers your motorized floor brush. See Checking for Blockages on page 15.
4Gently press the floor nozzle down with your foot while you grasp the handle and tilt it back towards you. (Fig. 11)
NOTE: The rotating brush on the motorized floor brush will not spin unless the nozzle is flat against the floor and the handle is tilted back.
5Due to the huge suction power of this vacuum, it may become necessary at times to adjust the suction release (d) on the handle. (Fig. 10) If the vacuum seems difficult to push or pull or if
it is lifting up area rugs, adjust the suction release by rotating the collar 90° counterclockwise to open the valve. Rotate the collar clockwise to close the valve when you need high suction and for vacuuming floors.
6Empty dust cup after vacuuming and periodically during use when it appears full. (See “Maintenance” section for instructions.)
7When you are finished vacuuming, turn the vacuum off.

CLEAN ABOVE THE FLOOR IN UPRIGHT VAC OR DETACHABLE CANISTER MODE
1Press the handle release button and pull the handle up or press the extension wand release button and pull the extension wand up.
2Attach desired accessory onto the end of either the extension wand or the handle. (Fig. 14)
3Your vacuum has tremendous suction power. Adjust the amount of suction with the suction release on the handle. Open the valve (a) by rotating the collar 90˚ counterclockwise for low suction when doing light jobs such as drapes or fine surfaces. Close the valve (a) by rotating the collar clockwise 90˚ for high suction and when using the hand held turbo brush. (Fig. 14)
4Press the On/Off switch to the “I” position to turn the vacuum on for above-floor cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Ensure vacuum is in upright position. Do not use position “II” when cleaning above the floor in the upright vac mode as this will engage the motorized floor brush. The rotating brush may damage your floor if run for a prolonged period of time in one area.
