- Remove any protective plastic or cardboard inserts.
- Verify all parts are present: main vacuum body, handle, hose, crevice tool, pivoting dusting brush, telescoping extension wand, upholstery tool.
2. Assembly
- Insert the handle into the top of the main vacuum body until it clicks securely into place.
- Attach the flexible hose to the hose inlet on the vacuum body. Ensure a tight connection.
- Store the included cleaning tools (crevice tool, dusting brush, or upholstery tool) on the designated storage clips on the vacuum.
- Ensure the dirt cup is properly seated and locked onto the vacuum.
Operating Instructions
1. Power On/Off
- Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet.
- Press the power button (usually located near the base or handle) to turn the vacuum on. Press again to turn off.
2. Height Adjustment
- Locate the 5-level height adjustment dial on the front of the vacuum's nozzle.
- Rotate the dial to select the appropriate height setting for your floor type:
- High Carpet: For thick carpets or rugs.
- Low Carpet: For low-pile carpets.
- Hard Floor: For bare floors like hardwood, tile, or laminate.
- Adjust the height before turning on the vacuum for best results.
3. Using Attachments
- To use the hose and attachments, ensure the vacuum is in the upright position.
- Detach the hose from its storage clip and connect the desired tool (crevice tool, dusting brush, or upholstery tool) to the end of the hose or the telescoping extension wand.
- The vacuum's suction will divert to the hose for detailed cleaning.
4. Automatic Cord Rewind
- Once cleaning is complete, unplug the vacuum from the electrical outlet.
- Gently press the cord rewind button (typically located on the side or back of the vacuum) to automatically retract the power cord into the unit. Guide the cord to prevent tangling.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your Hoover vacuum cleaner.
1. Emptying the Dirt Cup
