READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions must always be foll

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this vacuum cleaner has a polarized plug; one blade is wider than the other. This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Connect only to the outlet type specified on the serial number plate underneath the machine.

Designed for All Floor Surfaces.

Automatic Height Adjustment for All

Floors - Based upon the resistance of the brush roller against the floor, the power head automatically adjusts up or down to the appropriate cleaning height, providing optimal cleaning of all floor surface. The height adjustment chosen by the machine ensures aggressive brush action, while providing optimal air flow. This prevents suffocation of air flow due to improper height section. Never again manually adjust the brush height or use different vacuums for various floor surfaces; the SEBO X cleans them all, automatically!

Brush Adjustment Indicator Lights - Two lights, one for "up" and one for "down," illuminate to indicate when the brush roller is in the process of adjusting to the proper cleaning height. Optimum cleaning occurs when both lights are off.

Bag Full or Clog Light & Auto Shut Off - A warning light will illuminate and the machine will automatically shut off, when it senses a full bag, a clog in the airflow pathway, or an excessively dirty micro filter. If the user ignores this warning for approximately 30 seconds, the machine will shut off and the "BAG FULL OR CLOG" light will flash. The user should turn the switch off, unplug the machine and immediately insert a new bag or remove the clog (to remove a clog, refer to the Clog Removal section on page 10). If the user restarts the machine without having solved the problem, the "BAG FULL OR CLOG" light will again illuminate and the machine will shut off in 30 seconds. feature prevents damage to the motor due to overheating.

Brush Deterioration Light - To ensure optimum cleaning at all times, a warning light will illuminate to indicate when the brush roller should be replaced due to excessive wear. The red "CHECK BRUSH" light will illuminate (after a 10 second delay) to notify the user that the brush roller is too worn and, therefore, should be replaced. The light will remain illuminated until the worn brush roller is replaced, but the machine will continue to operate.

Brush Obstruction Light & Auto Shut Off -

A warning light will quickly flash, the brush roller will immediately stop spinning and the vacuum will shut off, if an obstructi becomes jammed in the brush roller. Th prevents the belt from breaking and protects the motor from damage. The user should turn the switch off, unplug the machine and immediately remove the obstruction. If the user restarts the machine without removing the obstruction, the machine will again shut off in 3 seconds and the "CHECK BRUSH" light will flash.

Stationary Use Light – A warning light will slowly flash when the machine is standing in its upright locked position (which causes the power head to rise to its highest point from the floor) yet the brush remains in contact with the carpet fibers. This feature warns of potential carpet damage caused by excessive time in a stationary position, during which carpet fibers remain engaged with the brush, usually on medium to high pile carpet.

Easy Brush Roller Removal – Quick brush cleaning or replacement is easy, and no tools are required!

Vacuum Motor - The AUTOMATIC X has 1300 watt motor.

Instant-use Wand and Suction Hose - The integrated instant-use wand or suction hose is always ready. Just pull out eith tool, or both together, to clean hard-to-reach corners, edges and crevices. The suction hose is ideal for cleaning furniture. And an optional nine-foot extension hose is available, which creates a total hose length of 15-feet, perfect for cleaning stairs. Choose from a range of optical attachments that can be fitted to the wand or hose. The wand and hose together have an eight-foot reach for instant cleaning of hard-to-reach areas.

Three On-board, Full-size Tools and Large Filter Bag – The vacuum comes standard with a crevice nozzle, dusting brush and upholstery nozzle. Many optional accessories are also available. The filter bag is also SEBO's largest, with a dirt capacity of 1.4 gallons.

STANDARD FEATURES OF ALL SEBO VACUUMS

Bags are Better! - Top-fill, three and four-layer bags are an integral part of SEBO's filtration system because they hold virtually all dirt captured by the vacuum, which improves the effectiveness and useful life of the micro filters. They also ensure continuously strong suction because dirt enters from the top, deposits at the bottom, accumulates upward, and air exits through the sides, which allows unimpeded airflow as they fill to capacity. And they can be sealed when full, so no dust can escape into the air during bag removal and disposal.

In contrast, without bags to hold nearly all the captured dirt, the microfilters on bagless vacuums quickly clog from excessive dirt build-up and must be replaced often, or a loss of suction and cleaning effectiveness will occur. In addition, dust and other allergens become airborne when emptying bagless dirt containers. Lastly, bagless vacuum microfilters are expensive, usually costing more than a multi-year supply of SEBO filter bags.

S-class Pre-motor Microfilters - S-class Pre-motor Microfilters (S = "Schwebstoff" = airborne particles) are made from electrostatically charged micro-fiber material, which attracts and captures dust particles from the airflow of the vacuum before it passes over the motor to cool it. Cooling the motor with super-clean air increases motor life and reduces the possibility of maintenance, even after many years of use. This means that exhaust air is cleaned to the highest level. The class Standard requires filters to absorb greater than 99.9% particles down to 0.3 microns in diameter. For comparison, microns is the diameter of a human hair. Their advantages are relatively open texture that allows smoother airflow for be suction performance, a longer life expectancy, and they cost less than HEPA filters

Designed and Manufactured in Germany - Legendary quality, reliability and performance make SEBO vacuums the choice of cleaning professionals throughout the world.

Excellent for Users With Allergies or Asthma - The British Allergy Foundation recommends SEBO filters.

Tightly Sealed Vacuums Ensure Effective Filtration - Dirty air which flows through a vacuum, can only be filtered completely if it does not escape into the room through seams or seals in the machine. This is why all SEBO vacuums have tight seals throughout. Many vacuum companies with high-filtration claims are actually quoting specifications made by the manufacturer of the filter material, as measured in the laboratory, not the filtration effectiveness of the vacuum itself while operating. Whether or not dirty air can escape through leaks in the body of the machine is not considered. The filtration effectiveness of SEBO vacuums is tested while they operate.

Save Money! SEBO Vacuums Last for Years and Extend Carp Life! - If properly maintained, SEBO vacuums save ordinary residential users hundreds of dollars by providing excellent performance for ten to fifteen years or more, and their deep- cleaning power-brush technology extends the life of carpets. Typical vacuums perform poorly, even when new, and usually do not last beyond two years. So six or seven "disposable vacu- ums" must be purchased during the average life expectancy of just one SEBO machine.

Outstanding Warranty Coverage - SEBO is confident about the quality of all its vacuums. Therefore, all models include a five-year warranty on the motor and all non-wear parts. Please refer to the Warranty Card included with your SEBO vacuum cleaner for complete warranty coverage information.

SEBO Microfilters Ensure Continuously Strong Suction Performance - They are also long lasting, inexpensive and easy \$0 change in seconds.

of 100 Changing Bags is Easy and Clean - SEBO bags can be changed in just a few seconds, are cap keeps dust sealed inside during removal disposal.

Effective Pet Hair Removal - All SEBO vacu-

HEPA Pre-motor Microfilters (Optional) - HEPA Pre-motorums easily remove pet hair!

Microfilters ("High Efficiency Particulate Air") remove a minimum of 99.97% of all airborne particulate matter down to 0.3 microns in diameter. Because these filters use small grid-like structures to capture dust particles, dirt build-up clogs the airflow pathway sooner than what is expected from S-class microfilters. However, SEBO's HEPA microfilters are sold along with four-layer "Ultra-bags," which provide highly effective filtration before the airflow goes through the HEPA microfilter, greatly increasing life expectancy and reducing the potential of diminished air flow.

Exhaust Filters - Exhaust filters clean the air emitted by the vacuum motor.

OPTIONAL ATTACHMENTS, ACCESSORIES, BAGS & FILTERS

In addition to the standard on-board tools, a variety of options. Another popular attachment is the hand-held turbo brush for attachments are available. The nine-foot extension hose removing pet hair from upholstery. SEBO filter bags can be pur-(extends suction hoses) and the 20-inch extension tube (extended in boxes of ten (or sometimes eight) and filters are sold instant-use wands) are very popular because they create useful separately. Also, bags and filters can be purchased together in tools for cleaning stairs and out-of-reach areas. These two itemodel-specific kits called "Service Boxes." SEBO bags, filters are sold separately or as part of multiple item attachment kind accessories are reasonably priced and widely available.

To create a fresh scent while vacuuming, "SEBO FRESH" is available. To use, deposit a scented stick in the filter bag.

WARNING!

The quality, condition, coating, texture, age and manufacturing technique of all floor surfaces vary.

Therefore, upright vacuums with rotating brushes, including your SEBO, may damage some floor coverings or surfaces. types of high-gloss hardwood floors, cushion vinyl, berber carpets, long shag, and delicate or hand-woven carpets are particularly vulnerable to damage by rotating brushes. When possible, consult the materials supplied by your floor's manufacturer for information on proper upkeep and cleaning. To ensure that your new SEBO vacuum cleaner is compatible with your floor, please test the vacuum cleaner on each type of flooring surface in a small inconspicuous area to determine occurs. If damage occurs, stop using the vacuum cleaner immediately!

The standard brush roller on your SEBO vacuum is appropriate for most types of floor surfaces. However, a soft-bristle brush roller (X4 part # 5010GE or X5 part # 5290GE) that is designed for use on sensitive looped-pile carpets and/or hard floors is available for an additional charge. As with the standard brush roller, you should test the machine using the soft-bristle brush roller in an inconspicuous area prior to widespread use. The soft-bristle roller will wear more quickly than the standard brush roller, so it will need to be replaced more often. Also, because the bristles are softer, the height adjustment on the machine will be slightly lower than normal. Care must be taken to ensure that the bottom of the machine does not contact the floor. If this happens, damage to the floor could occur. If damage occurs, stop using the vacuum cleaner immediately!

Using the Attachment Tube, Hose & Attachments - Figures 4, 5 & 6

The attachment tube (16) is useful for vacuuming corners and hard-to-reach areas. The handle grip (1) should be in the upright, locked position (as shown in figure 4). Grip the attachment tube handle (11), pull it up and away from machine and stretch out the hose (12) until it locks to the back of the tube (locking action will prevent the hose from retracting back into the attachment tube while it is in use). Various attachments may be inserted onto the end of tube. After use, remove attachment and re-insert the attachment tube into the back of the machine. Be sure that the attachment tube handle (11) is in over the protruding tab (see #22, page 6). If the attachment tube handle properly seated over the protruding tab, the hose will automatically retract and you may resume vacuuming. There is no need to turn off the vacuum while switching from upright vacuuming to using the attachment tube or hose.

To use the hose without the attachment tube (as shown in figure 5), pull the hose out of the attachment tube while the tube is still attached to the machine and securely seated over the protruding tab [22]. Insert an attachment tool, if desi onto the end of the flexible hose. You may also release the hose while the attachment tube is disengaged from the machine by pressing the release button at the base of the handle [11].

While using attachment tools, if the power head brush roller is not able to disengage from the floor surface, the stationary-use warning light will flash. You may keep the brush roller off the carpet by placing the handle (1) in its upright locked position and lowering the handle with one hand to raise the brush roller off of the floor. Operate attachment accessories with the other hand. Or, with the handle in the upright locked position, the machine may be tipped backward so that it rests against furniture or the floor on the back side of the bag housing (6), and the power head is locked in a perpendicular position to the floor. Ensure that no children or pets can come into contact with the spinning brush roller.

To vacuum walls, under beds, or higher-reach areas, etc., the SEBO AUTOMATIC X can be fitted with an additional straight tube (45) and the wall and floor brush (41). The machine will then perform as a canister vacuum (as shown in figure ^a 6).
