Operating Instructions
- Power On/Off: Press the power button on the handheld unit to turn the vacuum on or off.
- Smart iQ Technology: The vacuum features Smart iQ Technology with iQ, floor, and edge sensors. It automatically adjusts suction power and brush roll speed based on the amount of debris, floor type (hard floor or carpet), and proximity to edges.
- 360-Degree Cleaning: The PowerFins HairPro floor nozzle is designed to pick up debris from all directions – whether pushing forward, pulling backward, or cleaning along edges.
- Using Attachments: To use an attachment, detach the handheld vacuum from the wand. Select the desired accessory (e.g., brush crevice tool, mini motorhead) and attach it directly to the handheld unit or the end of the wand.
- Automatic Dust Collection: After cleaning, place the vacuum back on the automatic dust collection dock. The dock will automatically empty the dust cup, storing debris for up to 30 days.

The iQ indicator on the vacuum head visually communicates the amount of dust detected, with different light patterns for low, medium, and high debris levels.
The vacuum cleaner head intelligently adapts its suction and brush roll speed when transitioning from hard floors to carpet, thanks to its floor sensor.
The integrated LED headlights on the vacuum head illuminate hidden dust and debris, making it easier to spot and clean.
The handheld vacuum unit can be easily detached for targeted cleaning, and its dust cup can be emptied into the automatic dock or manually.
Maintenance
- Automatic Dust Collection Dock: The dock stores up to 30 days of debris. When the dust bag in the dock is full, replace it according to the dock's instructions.
- Emptying the Handheld Dust Cup (if needed): While the automatic dock handles most emptying, you can manually empty the handheld dust cup by pressing the release button and disposing of the contents.
- Cleaning the Brush Roll: The PowerFins HairPro brush roll is designed to be tangle-free. Regularly check the brush roll for any trapped debris or hair. If necessary, remove the brush roll cover and clear any obstructions.
- Cleaning Filters: The vacuum has washable filters. Refer to the full manual for specific instructions on how to remove, wash, and thoroughly dry the pre-motor and post-motor filters. Clean filters regularly to maintain optimal suction.
