bulb in gently and turning it towards brush. Install the new
bulb by pushing it gently into the socket and turning away
from the brush.
Reposition lens, by inserting tab on left side and then
pushing the right side back into place.
Low suction, poor pickup, or no suction may be due
to a clog in the vacuum cleaner. If you notice a change
in the sound of the motor or a reduction in the spin-
ning action in the Dirt Container, check for clogs.

Check Upper Tank and Louvers for build up or clogs.

the Foot Hose and unclog with a long, narrow object.
