USING YOUR VACUUM CLEANER

• Assemble the vacuum cleaner before use.

• DO NOT operate the vacuum when water level is below the “Working Level” line on the water tank.

• Unwind the power cord and attach the cord to the hook located on the base (17). This allows more stability when the unit is rolled from one location to another.

• Plug into a wall outlet.8

Use: The water filtration vacuum cleaner can be used on dry and wet surfaces. To use as a wet pick-up vacuum, operate the unit on the wet surface as you would for a dry surface.

WARNING: DO NOT overfill the water tank. The unit will stop working if

the tank is full. If full, turn off and unplug the unit. Then empty the tank and clean. Refill with clean water at the “Working Level”, then plug unit back in and continue working. DO NOT tip over. On/Off Switch: Turn the unit on or off by pressing the power switch located on top of the main body (Fig. 10). Air Flow Control: Adjust the suction level by moving the pusher up or down (Fig. 11).
