Clearing clog

The Hose on the back of the vacuum cleaner

dust bag can sometimes become clogged.

If you notice a change in the sound of the

vacuum motor or a reduction in suction,

check for clogs.

2. Pull the bag door outward to open and

set aside. Remove the dust bag to check

the suction Inlet for a clog.

3. Grasp the quick reach handle and lift

up to separate from the lower hose.

Check for a clog in the base, the wand

or the hose.

4. Release the hose from the upper portion

of the vacuum by turning to the right.

Straighten the hose and unclog with a

long, narrow object.

5. If the clog persists, turn the vacuum clean-

er OFF and unplug it. Remove the brush

cover. Check the air passageway for

obstructions. See Page 10 for instructions

on how to access the air passageway.

Remove debris from this area. Reposition
