Using Your Vacuum
Using the Vacuum

The ICONPET™ Turbo Edge can be used as a stick vacuum, hand vacuum or for extended reach with hand vacuum + wand.
- Press the power button ▶️ to begin cleaning and to turn OFF the machine when finished.
- Press the cleaning mode button to toggle between the three settings.
- High: For cleaning carpet and area rugs. This mode balances power and provides a run time of up to 18 minutes. This is the default mode when the vacuum is turned ON.
- TURBO: For maximum suction. This mode is active for 5 minutes and then will default back to high power mode.
- Low: For hard floors. Offers the quietest sound with longest run time of up to 50 minutes.
Note: All batteries differ when it comes to run time and power production. The cleaning mode you choose and the surfaces you vacuum (long, thick carpet uses more power than short, low pile carpet) affect run time and power produced. To better preserve run time and overall battery life, use the power mode best suited to your cleaning task and only use TURBO mode when you need an additional boost of suction power.
Note: If your vacuum is difficult to push on carpet or is shutting off abruptly, try reducing the power setting.
