Edge Cleaner
Active brush edge cleaners are on both sides of the POWERHEAD electric brush.
Guide either side of the brush along baseboards or next to furniture to help remove dirt trapped  at carpet edges.

Overload Protector
The overload protector protects the motor from brush jamming and belt breakage. If the agitator slows down or stops, the overload protector shuts off the brush.
To correct problem: Unplug the electrical cord, remove obstruction. Check brush area for excessive lint buildup or jamming.
To reset:
Press the reset button on top of the brush. Plug in the power cord, turn on vacuum and brush.

Use with a Telescoping Wand (not included)
The wand length is adjustable and requires no assembly. To adjust, simply push down on the wand adjust button and slide the upper wand to the desired height.
The swivel, located on the POWERHEAD allows you to turn the handle to the left side to reach farther under low furniture.
When raising the wand you may have to hold the POWERHEAD with your hand or foot.

[toggle title=”Attach Wand” open=”no”] 1. To remove wands from the POWERHEAD, lock wands in straight-up position. 2. Press wand easy release pedal with foot and pull the wands straight up out of the POWERHEAD. The plug and cord do not have to be removed to use attachments on the wands. [/toggle]

[toggle title=”Carpet Pile Indicator” open=”no”] Suggested pile height settings: For best deep down cleaning, use the XLO setting. However you may need to raise the height to make some jobs easier, such as scatter rugs and some deep pile carpets, and to prevent the vacuum cleaner from shutting off. As a general guide: XLO — most carpet heights LO — short to medium pile MED — medium to long pile HI — shag and long pile [/toggle]
