PROBLEM

POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS

Vacuum is not  

picking up dirt.

Check filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow instructions 

for rinsing and drying the filters before re-inserting back into 

the vacuum. (See “Maintenance” sections for instructions.)
Dust cup may be full; empty dust cup.
Check hose and hose connections for blockages; clear 

blockages if required.
If dust cup is empty, and attachment inlets are clear, check for 

other blockages. (See “Checking for Blockages” for instructions.)

Vacuum lifts scatter rugs 

(lightweight, movable rugs).

Suction is powerful. Take care when vacuuming scatter-type 

rugs or rugs with delicately sewn edges. Open the suction 

release on the hose to decrease suction power.

Airflow is restricted. No 

suction or light suction.

Check filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow instructions 

for rinsing and drying the filters before re-inserting back into 

the vacuum. (See “Maintenance” sections for instructions.)
Dust cup may be full; empty dust cup.
Check hose, hose connections, nozzles and accessories for 

blockages; clear blockages if required.
Close the suction release on the hose to increase suction power.
If dust cup is empty, and attachment inlets are clear, check for 

other blockages. (See Checking for Blockages for instructions.) 

Motorized floor brush has 

become jammed or has 

shut off.

Immediately turn off and unplug vacuum, disconnect the 

nozzle and remove blockage before reconnecting and 

turning vacuum back on. (See “Checking for Blockages” for 

instructions.)

Vacuum turns off on  

its own.

This vacuum cleaner is equipped with a motor protective 

thermostat. If for some reason your vacuum overheats, the 

thermostat will automatically turn the unit off. Should this occur, 

perform the following steps to restart the motor thermostat:
1.  Move the On/Off switch to the “O” (Off) position.
2. Unplug the vacuum.
3.  Empty the dust cup and clean filters. (See “Maintenance” 

sections for instructions.)

4.  Check for blockages in hose, accessories and inlet 

openings. (See "Checking for Blockages” for instructions.) 

5. Allow the unit to cool for a minimum of 45 minutes. 
6. Plug in the vacuum. 
7.  Turn the On/Off switch to the “I” (On) position to restart 

the vacuum.

Note:

 If vacuum still does not start, contact Customer Service 

at: 1-800-798-7398.
