IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ! READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions must always be followed. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this vacuum cleaner 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, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
SEBO AIRBELT K PRODUCT FEATURES SEBO Vacuums Save Money! – SEBO vacuums are the highest quality machines available. In fact, if properly maintained, SEBO vacuums can save ordinary residential users hundreds of dollars by providing excellent performance for ten to fifteen years or more. Typical vacuums perform poorly and usually do not last beyond two years. So, in the long run, SEBO vacuums cost less money than the five to six other vacuums purchased during that time period.
SEBO AIRBELT K PRODUCT FEATURES Designed for All Floor Surfaces. AIRBELT K3: Five Power Head Choices – The AIRBELT K3 has an electrified telescopic tube designed to accommodate any choice from the following five power heads: ET-1, ET-2, ET-H and DISCO. Each power head has unique features and benefits, but all power brushes are designed to provide K3 with DISCO thorough brushing for optimal cleaning of carpets. The DISCO power head enables the vacuum to polish hard floors.
OPTIONAL POWER HEADS FOR THE AIRBELT K3 Deep clean your carpet with a SEBO power head, or polish your hard floor with a SEBO DISCO Ultra-High-Speed floor polisher! SEBO power heads and the DISCO polisher are virtually maintenance free, and their electronic overload protection feature extends belt life by automatically shutting off power, if a brush roller or polisher pad jams.
