The indicator will begin to show red as bag
fills with dirt. There are three conditions
that will cause the indicator to become

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance 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,

H. Crevice tool may be used in tight
spaces, corners, and along edges in
such places as dresser drawers, uphol-
stered furniture, stairs and baseboards.
I. Furniture nozzle may be used for up-
holstered furniture, draperies, tapestries,
mattresses, clothing, automobile interiors
and carpeted stairs.
J. Dusting brush may be used for
carved furniture, table tops, books,
lamps, lighting fixtures, venetian blinds,
baseboards, shutters and registers.
K. Hard floor tool may be used for walls
and very irregular hard surface floors
such as brick and slate.
Suction regulator
(some models)
The suction regulator on the wand allows
the user to reduce suction when neces-
sary. Open the suction regulator for less
suction when cleaning lightweight fab-
rics or throw rugs. Close (G) the suction
regulator for maximum suction.
If the power nozzle is difficult to push
on some carpet, open the suction
regulator. This will help prevent dam-
age to the belt.
Variable speed control
(some models)
The variable speed control (F) is located
on the hand grip.
Slide the control back to reduce energy
consumption and to clean lightly soiled
areas or delicate fabrics. Slide control
forward for maximum cleaning power in
heavily soiled areas. If the power nozzle
is difficult to push, slide the control toward
back to reduce the power. This will help
prevent damage to the belt.
Edge cleaning
Special edge groomers are provided on
both sides of the nozzle to remove dirt in
carpet near baseboards and furniture.
Guide side of nozzle parallel to edge of
carpet or furniture as shown.
Hard surface floor cleaning
The power nozzle can be used for
cleaning hard surface floors such as
wood, linoleum, vinyl, asphalt and
rubber tile, sealed cork, concrete and
terrazzo, as well as carpet.
To set the power nozzle for hard surface
floor cleaning, push the floor surface
selector button toward “BARE” (E). This
setting provides suction and no agitator
action. If you prefer, you may use the
wall/floor brush to clean bare floors.
You will find it particularly convenient
when cleaning lightweight area rugs to
set the floor surface selector button on
“BARE” and continue cleaning the sur-
rounding floor surfaces.
Note: The headlight will be ON in both
the “RUG” and “BARE” floor surface
modes.

Thermal protector
An internal thermal protector has been
used in your cleaner to prevent overheat-
ing if a large item or clog gets caught in
the nozzle or at the opening of the bag.
When the blockage is not removed,
the thermal protector will trip and
cleaner will stop running.
If this happens, turn cleaner OFF and
disconnect cleaner from electrical out-
let. Then disconnect nozzle and remove
obstruction. Within 15 minutes the ther-
mal protector will cool and automatically
reset and cleaning may resume.
If cleaner does not operate, allow addi-
tional time for thermal protector to reset.
Lubrication
The motor is equipped with two bearings
that contain sufficient lubrication for the
life of the motor. The addition of lubri-
cant could cause damage. Therefore,

two ball bearings that should be lubri-
cated periodically by a Hoover Factory
Service Center or an authorized Hoover
Warranty Service Dealer (Depot).
