How do I use the different cleaning modes?

To clean bare floors or with accessories:

1. Move the power/surface switch to setting l, Bare Floor.
2. Tilt the handle back while gently stepping on the floor nozzle. Note that the brushroll will not spin in this mode. To clean carpets:
3. Move the power/surface switch to position ll, Brushroll On.
4. Tilt the handle back while gently stepping on the floor nozzle. The brushroll will start spinning, and the brushroll indicator light will illuminate.

How do I clean above floors with or without accessories?

To clean with the flexible hose, stand the vacuum upright, and remove the hose from the top of the extension wand. Add a cleaning accessory to the end of the hose. For more reach, remove the extension wand from the nozzle hose and attach it to the flexible hose. Attach a cleaning tool to the end of the wand. To adjust the amount of suction power, slide the suction control button at the end of the flexible hose.

When and how do I clean the filters?

Filters may need to be cleaned if the vacuum stops picking up dirt, if airflow is restricted, or if you notice lighter or no suction. For optimal performance, clean filters regularly. Between cleanings, lightly tap filters over a trash receptacle to remove dust and debris as needed. Rinse the pre- motor foam and felt filters every 3 months, or as needed.

4. Rinse both filters with water only.
5. Allow filters to air-dry completely (at least 24 hours) before reinstalling.
6. Once dry, replace the felt filter first, followed by the foam filter.
7. Reinstall the dust cup by placing the bottom of dust cup into the pod and then tilting until it clicks into place. Rinse the post-motor HEPA filter every 12 months, or as needed.
8. Pull the latch under the HEPA filter cover and lift off the cover.
9. Remove the HEPA filter.
10. Rinse with water only.
11. Allow filter to air-dry completely (at least 24 hours) before reinstalling.
12. Once dry, reinstall the HEPA filter.

How and when do I adjust the suction?
