DESIGNED FOR CARPETS AND HARD FLOORS The AUTOMATIC X is the most technically advanced vacuum cleaner in the world! It features an electronic controller that acts as a brain, measuring the resistance of the brush roller against the floor and signaling the power head to adjust up or down to the appropriate brush height, to ensure optimum performance on both carpet and hard-floor surfaces. The controller also regulates a warning system that not only alerts the user to problems such as clogs, a worn brush, a full bag and brush roller obstructions, but it also automatically shuts off the vacuum, when necessary, to protect the motor and belts from damage. In addition, the AUTOMATIC X has a convenient instant-use cleaning wand and suction hose, and it comes with a lifetime belt warranty. 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. The AUTOMATIC X Series – The AUTOMATIC X4 is 12-inches wide with a cleaning path of 10 ½ inches and one-sided edge cleaning. The AUTOMATIC X5 is 15-inches wide with a cleaning path of 14 ½ inches and two-sided edge cleaning. 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, improves hard floor cleaning performance by channeling the airflow and preventing debris kickback. An electronic controller automatically adjusts to the brushroll height ideal for each flooring surface 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. Protective Rubber-coated Wheels – SEBO’s wheels protect all floor surfaces and provide smooth maneuverability. Worn Brush Light. Easy Brush 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. (The vacuum continues to operate; it will not automatically shut off.) When needed, installing a new brush roller or cleaning hair or other debris from a used brush is quick and easy, and no tools are required! Easy Maintenance – The clog removal door, brush, and replaceable hard floor “sealing strip” are easy to access. A Low 5 1/2-inch Profile – Lower the handle flat to the floor to clean under beds, or lower it to the intermediate stop position to maneuver over rugs. Depress the foot pedal again to bypass the intermediate stop position, or close this position by moving the orange handle-position slider. The extremely low profile allows for easy cleaning under furniture Bag Full 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 illuminates, the vacuum automatically shuts off after 30 seconds, and then the warning light starts continuously flashing. This feature prevents overheating and motor damage from a lack of adequate airflow. Included Tools & Accessories Three On-board Full-size Tools. Large Filter Bag – The vacuum comes standard with a crevice tool, dusting brush, upholstery nozzle, and a large 1.4-gallon filter bag. Also, many optional accessories are available. Forty-foot Cord – A 40-foot cord saves time, by reducing the number of electrical outlet changes needed during use. AUTOMATIC X4/X5 FILTRATION SYSTEM: Bags are Better! Top-fill, three and four-layer bags are an integral part of SEBO’s filtration system because they hold virtually all dirt captured by the vacuum, which improves the effectiveness and useful life of the microfilters. They also ensure continuously strong suction because dirt enters from the top, deposits at the bottom, accumulates upward, and air exits through the sides, which allows unimpeded airflow as they fill to capacity. And they can be sealed when full, so no dust can escape into the air during bag removal and disposal. S-class Pre-motor Microfilters – S-class Pre-motor Microfilters (S = “Schwebstoff” = airborne particles) are made from electrostatically charged micro-fiber material, which attracts and captures dust particles from the airflow of the vacuum before it passes over the motor to cool it. Cooling the motor with super-clean air increases motor life and reduces the possibility of maintenance, even after many years of use. The S-class Standard requires filters to absorb greater than 99.9% of particles down to 0.3 microns in diameter. For comparison, 100 microns is the diameter of a human hair. SEBO STANDARD FEATURES: Designed and Manufactured in Germany – Legendary quality, reliability and performance make SEBO vacuums the first choice of cleaning professionals throughout the world. Excellent for Users With Allergies or Asthma – The British Allergy Foundation recommends SEBO filters. Tightly Sealed Vacuums Ensure Effective Filtration – Dirty air, which flows through a vacuum, can only be filtered completely if it does not escape into the room through seams or seals in the machine. This is why all SEBO vacuums have tight seals throughout. Many vacuum companies with high-filtration claims are actually quoting specifications made by the manufacturer of the filter material, as measured in the laboratory, not the filtration effectiveness of the vacuum itself while operating. Whether or not dirty air can escape through leaks in the body of the machine is not considered. The filtration effectiveness of SEBO vacuums is tested while they operate. Save Money! SEBO Vacuums Last for Years and Extend Carpet Life! – If properly maintained, SEBO vacuums save ordinary residential users hundreds of dollars by providing excellent performance for ten to fifteen years or more, and their deep-cleaning power-brush technology extends the life of carpets. Typical vacuums perform poorly, even when new, and usually do not last beyond two years. So six or seven “disposable vacuums” must be purchased during the average life expectancy of just one SEBO machine. Five-year Warranty Coverage – All SEBO models include a five-year warranty on the motor and all non-wear parts and a five-year warranty on labor charges. Sebo vacuums outlast the lifespan of 6 traditional "disposable" vacuum cleaners All Sebo vacuums will easily and effectively remove pet hair Attachments are stored on board for above the floor cleaning An auto-shutoff feature will protect your vacuum from damage from clogs and overheating
