5. Operating Instructions

Your Eureka 3670G vacuum is designed for versatile cleaning. Here’s how to use it effectively:

• Power On/Off: Plug the 20-foot power cord into a suitable electrical outlet. Press the power button located on the unit to turn the vacuum on or off.
• Adjust Suction: To achieve maximum suction, ensure the slip ring on the hose handle is closed.
• Using Attachments:
  • Deluxe Floor Brush: Ideal for vacuuming both carpets and bare floors. It glides smoothly across surfaces.
  • Crevice Tool: Attach this tool to the end of the hose (or extension wand for added reach) to clean tight spaces, corners, and along baseboards.
  • Upholstery Nozzle/Dusting Brush: Use this combination tool for cleaning upholstery, drapes, and dusting various surfaces.
• Blower Port Function: The vacuum features a blower port for added versatility. To use it, detach the hose from the front suction port of the canister and attach it to the blower port located on the back side of the canister. This allows you to blow debris from areas like garages or workshops.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your vacuum cleaner.

• Dust Bag Replacement:

  The Eureka 3670G is a bagged canister vacuum. The dust bag and motor filter are crucial for the cleaner's efficiency. If the bag or filter becomes clogged, airflow will be reduced, impacting cleaning performance. Change the dust bag frequently to maintain maximum efficiency.

  To replace the dust bag:

  1. Unplug the electrical cord from the outlet.
  2. Open the dust bag compartment.
  3. Carefully remove the full dust bag.
  4. Insert a new triple filtration dust bag, ensuring it is properly seated.
  5. Close the dust bag compartment securely.

  Note: Fine particles (e.g., carpet fresheners, powder, plaster dust) can restrict airflow quickly. In such cases, the bag and filter may need more frequent changing, even if the bag does not appear full.
• Filter Cleaning: Clean the motor filter as needed. Refer to the specific instructions on the filter or within the vacuum's compartment for cleaning or replacement guidelines.
• Cord Storage: Wrap the 20-foot power cord neatly around the cord wraps on the vacuum unit for compact and convenient storage.
