Dirt Devil Carpet Cleaner Cord Installation Instructions

The Vision Easy Steamer carpet cleaner by Dirt Devil allows you to regularly steam clean high-traffic areas in your home. Dirt Devil sells this carpet cleaner in several pieces that require some assembly. The midsection of the carpet cleaner features a 25-foot power cord and the vacuum hose. While you are not required to install the power cord directly to the carpet cleaner housing, you will have to assemble the midsection, base and upper handle in order to store the power cord and operate the carpet cleaner.
