Three On-board, Full-size Tools. Large Filter Bag – The vacuum comes standard with a crevice nozzle, dusting brush, upholstery nozzle, and a large 1.4-gallon filter bag. Also, many optional accessories are available. Three-step Filtration – It features an S-class pre-motor microfilter, a three-layer AeraPure™ bag, and an exhaust microfilter, all in a tightly sealed casing that prevents dirty air from escaping through its seams. Low, 6-inch Profile – Its low, flat-to-the-floor profile makes cleaning under furniture easy! Instant-use Wand and Suction Hose – The integrated, instant-use wand and suction hose are always ready. Just pull out either tool, or both together, to clean hard-to-reach corners, edges, and crevices. The wand and hose together have an eight-foot reach. The suction hose is ideal for cleaning furniture. And an optional nine-foot extension hose is available, which creates a total hose length of 15 feet . . . perfect for cleaning stairs. Choose from a range of optional attachments that can be fitted to the wand or hose! Soft-start Feature – The vacuum’s gradual power-up capability extends motor life.
Automatic Height Adjustment: From Hard Floors to Carpets – The electronic controller adjusts the power head up or down to the appropriate brush height, providing optimal cleaning of both carpets and hard floors. The “sealing strip,” located behind the brush roller, improves hard floor cleaning performance by channeling the airflow and preventing debris kickback.
Brush Adjustment Indicator Lights – Two green lights, one for “up” and one for “down,” illuminate to indicate when the power head is adjusting the brush height to the proper cleaning level. Optimal cleaning effectiveness occurs when both lights are off. Stationary Use Light – When the vacuum is stationary in its upright, handle-locked position, the power head adjusts upward to the height necessary (or to its highest possible level) to disengage the spinning brush roller from the floor. However, if the brush remains in contact with carpet fibers, despite the power head’s upward adjustment, the red “check brush” warning light flashes to alert the user to avoid excessive use time in a stationary position. Full Bag or Clog Light with Automatic Shut Off – When a full bag, a clog in the airflow pathway, or an excessively dirty microfilter is detected, the red “bag full or clog” warning light remains illuminated, and the vacuum automatically shuts off after 30 seconds to avoid motor damage from a lack of airflow
Brush Obstruction Light with Automatic Shut Off – If an obstruction jams the brush roller, the red “check brush” warning light flashes quickly, the brush roller immediately stops spinning, and the vacuum shuts off. This feature prevents the belts from breaking and protects the motor and carpet from damage.
Worn Brush Light. Easy Brush Roller Removal and Cleaning – When the brush roller’s bristles are worn to a point that brush agitation is less effective, the red “check brush” warning light remains illuminated during use. Installing a new brush roller or just removing accumulated hair is quick and easy, and no tools are required!
Easy Maintenance – The clog removal door is easy to access, and its brush roller and “sealing strip” are easy to replace. Lifetime Belt Warranty – Stop changing vacuum belts! With an AUTOMATIC X, its heavy-duty, geared belts should last
LED Headlight – The AUTOMATIC X7 Premium and X8 models are both equipped with a headlight to illuminate cleaning surfaces in low-light conditions. Forty-foot Cord – Its 40-foot cord saves time, by reducing the number of electrical outlet changes needed during use. Brush-mode Button Worn Brush Light. Easy Brush Roller Removal and Cleaning – When the brush roller’s bristles are worn to a point that brush agitation is less effective, the red “check brush” warning light remains illuminated during use. Installing a new brush roller or just removing accumulated hair is quick and easy, and no tools are required! Foot Pedal Stress Release – When it’s in the upright, handlelocked position, the pedal relieves potentially damaging force against the bag housing by unlocking the handle.  The AUTOMATIC X8 is 15 inches wide with a cleaning path of 14.5 inches and two-sided edge cleaning. Protective, Rubber-coated Wheels – Its wheels protect all floor surfaces and provide smooth maneuverability. Combination Carrying Handle with Rotating Cord Hook – It’s easy to carry the vacuum or quickly unwind its cord.
