    the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the   
    plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician 
    to install a proper outlet. Do not change the plug in   
    any way.
    This model is for household use only.

     CAUTIOn:  Before using your vacuum, 
    make sure that the Dirt 
    Container is in locked posi-
    tion and that all filters (Inner 
    Circular, Outer Circular, Pre-

    Tip:
    Hair, string and small 
    objects can block the 
    Vacuum Hose or Tools. 
    Check them occasion-
    ally for obstructions.
     CAUTIOn: T he Rotating Floor Brush continues to 
    rotate while tools are in use. To reduce 
    the risk of injury from moving parts, 
    always move the cleaner with the 
    Carrying Handle at the back of   
    the cleaner. Always place vacuum 
    cleaner on floor with Handle in Upright 
    position when using tools. never place 
    your fingers under the cleaner when it   
    is running. never place Powerfoot on 
    furniture or uneven surfaces. Do not 
    place vacuum cleaner close enough to 
    objects to pull them into rotating brush.
    7
     nOTICE: The Floor Brush will continue  
    to rotate while you use your  
    vacuum for above floor cleaning. 
    To prevent carpet damage, do 
    not lean on the vacuum or let the 
    Powerfoot tilt forward.
    nOTICE: While vacuuming, certain carpets 
    and low humidity conditions may 
    generate small static discharges. The 
    discharges are entirely harmless and 
    are not associated in any way with 
    the main power supply.

    Separate the Outer foam and Inner pleated Circular Filters. Wash each 
    individually by hand in warm water. Mild detergent may be used if 
    desired. Rinse well, then air dry thoroughly before putting them back 
    together and replacing in Filter Cup.
    The Filter Cup may be washed in warm water with a mild detergent. 
    Make sure it is completely dry before reassembling with filters.

    cloth. Reach underneath the Upper Tank and turn the rim of the Louvers 
    to unlock. Pull straight down to remove.
    Unplug the cleaner from electrical outlet.

    underneath the Dirt Container and Filter Cup in the center of the  
    round part of the Lock ‘n Seal Lever.

    The Post-Motor Filter assists in the filtration process to return  
    clean air to the room. It is located behind the door on the side  
    of the cleaner.  When the filter becomes dirty, open the door,  
    remove the filter and replace. The white pleated Post-Motor Filter  
    is not washable 
    note: A basic washable Post-Motor Filter with reduced  
    filtration is available if desired.
    You should check your vacuum cleaner’s Rotating Floor Brush 
    and Drive Belt regularly for wear or damage. You should also 
    clean the brush and brush ends of strings, hair, and carpet 
    fibers. These can wrap around the brush and hamper its ability 
    to effectively clean your carpet. Also remove any debris that 
    has accumulated under the brush cover.
