Cannot Findthe Combination Nozzle	Nozzle is clipped into a compartment at the bottom edge on the back of the vacuum cleaner (between the wheels).It is a single attachment.
Floor Brush hard to push	Due to the strong suction power, it may be difficult to push, especially thick carpet. Rather than to use the floor brush forcibly, lift up the Floor Brush momentarily. It allows air to flow into the vacuum releasing and built up suction pressure, and then do well to push floor brush.Slide and open the suction adjuster located on the hose handle grip. This will reduce suction power of the floor head.
Cord doesn’t fully rewind	Pull out the cord and rewind again.
