TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Cause
Remedy
The motor is not working
The plug inserted incorrectly or
insufficiently in the wall outlet.
Check connection of the plug.
The wall outlet is not energized.
Check the presence of voltage, e.g.
with another appliance.
The motor stopped working
Poor or too low airflow, thermal
motor protection has tripped.
Unplug the power cord.
Check
and clear the intake and exhaust
air passage, filter cleanliness, and if
necessary, replace the dust bag. Allow
the vacuum cleaner to cool down.
Reduction of suction power
Full or clogged dust container.
Empty and clean the dust container.
The filters are clogged.
Clean or replace the filters.
Clogged nozzle, tubes or hose.
Check and clear the intake and
exhaust air passage.
The vacuum cleaner is warming up
Warming up of the vacuum cleaner during operation is normal, it is not
a malfunction.
CHECKING THE FULLNESS OF DUST CONTAINER
If the suction power of the vacuum cleaner decreases even when the floor nozzle is raised above the floor, empty the
dust container immediately.
Warning
: if the suction power is low even after the dust container is emptied, there may be several reasons:
- Some of the air passages (hose, telescopic tube, suction opening, floor nozzle or other attachments) are blocked.
- The air inlet filter in the dust container is dirty or old. It must be cleaned or replaced with a new one.
- The air outlet filter is dirty or old. It must be cleaned or replaced with a new one.
Check each of these options and fix the problem before using the appliance again. If you are unable to identify the cause
of the problem, take the appliance to your nearest service centre. Never use the appliance if the suction power is low, as
this could irreparably damage the motor.
MAINTENANCE
It is recommended to empty the dust container and clean the vacuum cleaner filters after each use of the vacuum
cleaner.
EMPTYING THE DUST CONTAINER
