Carpet Height Notes:
When using the power
nozzle, start on the "auto" setting. If pushing the
power nozzle forward feels sluggish or hard to
push, then adjust to a higher setting (i.e. HI or
XHI). If the power nozzle feels very easy to push,
you may want to lower the power nozzle for more
effective cleaning. The "Auto" setting is the
recommended setting for hard floor surfaces (i.e.
tile, vinyl, wood).
