2. Connect the telescoping extension wand to the handle end of the hose.
3. Connect the floor nozzle foot onto the telescoping extension wand.
4. Attach the tool holder onto the top portion of the extension wand.  Place the tools onto the tool holder for storage.
5. To extend the telescoping extension wand, push the black release button and then pull the bottom of the wand to the desired length.
6. Once assembled, you can store your vacuum by inserting the storage clip (located on the back of the floor nozzle) into the storage slot on the rear of the vacuum.

WARNING : Plastic film can be dangerous. To avoid the danger of suffocation, keep away from babies and children.

Operations

Power cord

The power cord is located at the rear of the vacuum. Gently pull out the power cord, watching for the yellow line. Stop pulling the power cord once the yellow line is visible. There is also a red line, which indicates the end of the usable cord. Do not pull the power cord out beyond the red line.

Automatic cord rewind

Your vacuum is equipped with an automatic cord rewind. When cleaning is finished, press the power button OFF (   )and grasp the plug to  disconnect from the electrical outlet. Hold the plug and press the  automatic cord rewind button to rewind the cord automatically

CAUTION : Be careful to avoid injury as the cord retracts very quickly.

Power button

Airflow regulator

Open the airflow regulator by sliding the regulator back towards the handle to an open position. This will reduce the suction power for vacuuming delicate fabrics.

For full suction power, close the airflow regulator by sliding the regulator forward to the closed position.

CAUTION: Before using your vacuum, make sure that the dirt container and all filters  (pre-motor and post-motor) are in place. Do not operate your vacuum without the dirt container and filters.
