Attach wand and tools

Clearing obstructions

To clean tools

The tools are attached to the hose or the

wand in the same manner.

Push tool firmly onto hose; twist tool

slightly to tighten or loosen connection.

Use cleaning tools with cleaner handle

in upright position.

To check for obstructions, 

first turn

cleaner off and disconnect from elec-
trical outlet; then disconnect hose
from cleaner.

Open hose door and care-

fully remove any visible obstruction. If no

obstruction is found, check hose and

tools.

Remove obstruction. To continue using

tools, re-attach hose to cleaner. If no

obstruction is found and a problem per-

sists, contact your Hoover Factory

Service Center or an Authorized Warranty

Service Dealer (Depot).

To clean the hose, wipe off dirt with a

cloth dampened in a liquid detergent.

Rinse with a damp cloth. Cleaning tools

may be washed in warm water with a

detergent. Rinse and air dry before

using.

The following sections are concerned

with proper maintenance of the cleaner.

Familiarize yourself with these home

maintenance tasks and keep this owner’s

manual in a convenient place where you

can refer to it when needed. Proper use

and care of your cleaner will ensure con-

tinued cleaning effectiveness.

3. Maintenance

When to replace

Check bag from time to time. It is rec-

ommended that you change the paper

bag when dirt reaches the dotted line. If

more dirt than this accumulates, your

cleaner may not operate effectively.

CAUTION:

Very fine materials, such as

face powder, cornstarch, fireplace ashes

or fireplace soot, may seal the paper

bag and may cause it to burst even

though it is only partially full of dirt.

When cleaner is used to remove material

of this nature, change bag often.
