Injury and Product Damage
Hazard
• DO NOT place hands or feet under
the unit at any time.
• DO NOT use outlets above coun-
ters. Damage from cord to items in
urroundin area could occur.
Toselectapileheightsetting:
Turnoffvacuumcleaner. Select a pile height
setting by tilting the vacuum cleaner back
until front wheels are lifted slightly off the
floor.
Slide the adjustment lever to the correct
setting.
There are tour (4) pile height settings on the
vacuum cleaner. Use the LOW setting for
most low-pile carpets and bare floor
cleaning (with agitator OFF), and the HIGH
setting for high-pile carpets like shag carpet,
scatter rugs, etc. Use the other settings as
needed for carpet heights in-between low
and high pile.
CAUTION

remain in one spot for any length
of time when the agitator is turn-
ing. Damage to carpet may occur.
SOME MODELS
Bare floor setting: Slide the carpet/bare
floor selector all the way back and down
toward the bottom of the nozzle until it
locks into place.
In this position the brush assembly does
not revolve. This setting should be used
for cleaning hardwood and tile floors and
when any attachments (tools) are
used.
Carpet setting: Slide the selector all the
way forward and up to the carpet
position.
In this position the brush assembly will
turn. When carpets are being cleaned the
selector should be in this position.
Attention: Refer to your carpet manufac-
turers cleaning recommendations. Some
more delicate carpets may require that
they be vacuumed with the agitator turned
off, to prevent carpet damage.
! CAUTION
Do not allow vacuum cleaner to
remain in one spot for any length
of time when the agitator is turn-
ing. Damage to carpet may occur.
Note: For longer belt life, turn the vacuum
cleaner off before moving selector, other-
wise make sure the selector is pushed
fully and quickly as possible to the
desired position. Failure to do so can
cause the belt to rub on the selector shaft
and may result in the belt becoming hot
and creating a burning rubber smell.

MOTOR PROTECTION
SYSTEM
This vacuum cleaner is also equipped with
a motor protector by-pass valve which
automatically opens to provide cooling air
to the motor when a clog prevents the
normal flow of air to the motor, if the by-
pass valve opens to prevent motor
overheating and possible damage to the
vacuum cleaner, you will notice a change
of sound as air rushes through the valve
opening.
Note: Do not block
motor protector
To correct
problem: See the
TROUBLE-
SHOOTING table. Motor
Protector
Note: The motor protector may open when
using attachments or when cleaning new
carpet, due to reduced airflow caused by
the attachments themselves or by new
carpet lint filling the bag quickly. See the
TROUBLESHOOTING table.

DIRT SENSOR
The electronic dirt sensor is a feature
which will detect particles as they pass
through the vacuum cleaner.
The dirt sensor indicator is located on the
front of the switch cover.
The red light indicates dirt is being picked
up by the cleaner.
OPERATION
As you vacuum, the red indicator light will
come on and stay on as long as the
sensor detects a high concentration of
particles passing through the vacuum
cleaner.
No light indicates that most of the
cleaning is complete.

Electrical Shock And Personal
Injury Hazard
Disconnect electrical supply before
performing maintenance to the
unit. Failure to do so could result in
electrical shock or personal injury
from cleaner suddenly starting.
TO CLEAN DIRT SENSOR OPTICS
The dirt sensor optics consist Of two optic
cells located inside the bag holder.
Occasionally, it may become necessary to
clean the two optic cells to assure
maximum performance. It is
recommended the optic cells be cleaned:
•When the red light stays on
continuously.
•When dirt or dust adheres to the
optic cells.
•Whenever the dust bag is changed.
To clean the sensor, wipe the optic cells
with a soft, dry cloth. Never use cleaners
or liquids as they can help speed the
recoating of the optic cells and make it
necessary to clean them much sooner
than normal. The dirt sensor area can be
reached by removing the dust cover and
the dust bag.
