<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate a user's feeling of incongruity at the time of releasing a forced stop in a vacuum cleaner which forcedly comes to a stop for power saving and silencing when the machine is not in an actual cleaning condition. Ž<P>SOLUTION: The vacuum cleaner includes a hose 3 having an operating section 4 and detachable from a body 1, an extension tube 5 detachable from the hose 3, a sucker 6 detachable from the extension tube 5 and the hose 3 and having a contact detection means capable of detecting its contact with a surface to be cleaned, and a control means 16 to drive and control an electric blower 2 in an operation mode set in the operating section 4. The control means 16 forcedly stops the electric blower 2 when sensing the sucker 6 not in contact with the surface to be cleaned from output information of the contact detection means. In addition, the control means 16 operates the electric blower 2 so as to exhibit a suction force set before the forced stop or previously set when conditions for releasing the forced stop set during the forced stop materialize. Thus the vacuum cleaner eliminates the user's feeling of incongruity at the time of releasing the forcedly stop and is ensures the ease of use. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
