USING YOUR VACUUM CLEANER
Once assembled:
1. The cord is stored inside the unit. Pull the power cord out of the machine to as long as you require and stop when you see the yellow tab. Do not over-extend. If the red tab is visible, then wind the cord back until only the yellow tab is visible.
2. Plug the cable into a wall socket and press the switch on.
3. Press the power button to start vacuuming.
4. Move the vacuum cleaner floor head in a forwards and backwards motion over the areas you would like to clean.
Note: Large items can get trapped in the brush/floor head which could cause the unit to overheat. Make sure you pick up larger items that could get trapped before vacuuming.

5. You can adjust the extension tube length to a comfortable cleaning height. To alter the length of the telescopic handle, a) Press and hold the extension lock in the direction indicated. b) Slide the steel pole, up or down, to the correct length.
6. Another adjustment you can make is to the suction power of the floor head. To use less suction power, move the suction control tab in the direction indicated. For maximum suction power, close the tab.
* The 2 in 1 crevice tool is for narrow gaps and hard to reach places. * The turbo brush is for use on upholstery and is also ideal for the retrieval of pet material or human hair across wide areas of carpet.
7. Both attach to either the extension tube or the hose connector in the same manner as the floor head.
8. To adapt the tool for use as a brush on delicate surfaces, rotate the head of the tool in the direction indicated until it extends out.
9. When using the floor head you can adapt the brush depending on floor type. To clean on hard floors, push the surface selector in so the icon shows a brushed head (refer to diagram.)
10. To clean on carpets, push the surface selector down so the icon shows a smooth head (refer to diagram.) b)
