Controls and Settings

Main controls located on the handle and body.

Handle Controls: POWER/SURFACE switch (Off, Hard Floor, Carpet), Brushroll On/Off switch.

Body Controls: LIFT-AWAY Release Button, Hose Release Lever, Dust Cup Release Button.

Settings: CARPET setting provides stronger suction and brushroll action. HARD FLOOR setting reduces suction and may disengage brushroll for gentle cleaning. Brushroll On/Off allows you to turn the motorized brush on or off for delicate rugs or to prevent scatter.

Using Attachments

For above-floor cleaning: stairs, furniture, ceilings, and tight spaces.

  1. Enter Lift-Away mode: Press the LIFT-AWAY release button and lift the pod away from the floor nozzle.
  2. Detach wand and hose: Press the hose release lever and pull out the wand.
  3. Select tool: Attach desired tool (crevice, dusting brush, etc.) to the end of the wand or hose.
  4. Clean: Turn on vacuum and guide tool over surfaces.
  5. Return to upright: Reconnect hose and wand, then snap the pod back onto the floor nozzle.

Tip: The Pet Multi-Tool combines a motorized brush and crevice tool for pet hair removal.

Lift-Away Mode

Powered Lift-Away allows you to detach the main vacuum pod for portable cleaning.

  1. Ensure vacuum is on and in CARPET or HARD FLOOR mode.
  2. Press the LIFT-AWAY release button on the front of the vacuum body.
  3. Lift the pod away from the floor nozzle. The hose remains connected.
  4. Carry the pod to clean stairs, furniture, or other above-floor areas. The motor and suction remain active.
  5. To reattach, align the pod with the floor nozzle and push down until it clicks into place.

WARNING! Keep the hose untangled during use. Do not pull the vacuum by the hose.

Maintenance & Care

  4. Check for Clogs: If suction is low, check hose, wand, and air pathways for blockages.
