BRUSHROLLCLEAN® FUNCTION
Use the BRUSHROLLCLEAN® function to keep the brush roll clean and
free from hair and fibres. For best results use the BRUSHROLLCLEAN®
function when ERGORAPIDO® is fully charged.
10
Place ERGORAPIDO® on a hard and flat surface. Do not use the
BRUSHROLLCLEAN® function on carpets.
Press the BRUSHROLLCLEAN® pedal with your foot while the cleaner is
on. Hold for 5 seconds until hairs and fibres are removed. There will be
a cutting noise during this process, this is normal. If hairs remain on the
brush roll, repeat the process.
The BRUSHROLLCLEAN® function is equipped with an overheating
protection. If the BRUSHROLLCLEAN® function has been used for more
than 30 seconds (constant or interrupted) it will deactivate the brush
roll and turn off the nozzle front lights. The vacuum cleaner can still
be used, even when the BRUSHROLLCLEAN
®
function is deactivated.
To reactivate the BRUSHROLLCLEAN® function, place ERGORAPIDO
®
on
charge and charge for 15 minutes.
Please note that the BRUSHROLLCLEAN® function might not be able to
remove thicker threads or wires that are caught in the brush roll.

ing performance. Take out the filters by pressing the release buttons.

remove excess water and leave to dry minimum 12h before putting
them back into the cleaner.
CLEANING THE HOSE AND NOZZLE WHEELS
15
Loosen the hose behind the nozzle from its upper connection. Remove
any object or debris that can be blocking the airflow in the hose or in
the air channel to the dust cup, and put the hose back.

If the wheels need to be cleaned or get jammed, remove them carefully
by using a flat screwdriver.
REMOVING AND CLEANING THE BRUSH ROLL

If the brushroll gets blocked ERGORAPIDO® will stop. Open the cable
protector grill and the brush roll hatch cover and remove the brush roll.

Use a pair of scissors to remove threads etc. Reassemble the brush roll,
making sure it can spin freely.
