IMPORTANT: Always switch off and unplug the machine before performing maintenance or
troubleshooting checks. Switch the machine off before connecting or disconnecting the lift-out, hose and
accessories or before emptying the dirt container.
The motor is equipped with a thermal cut-out. If for any reason the machine should overheat, the
thermostat will automatically turn the machine off. If this happens switch off and unplug the machine.
Remove and empty the dirt container. Check the machine for blockages and clean the filters if required.
Allow the machine to cool for approximately 1 hour. If you have washed the pre-motor filter, wait 24
hours or until fully dry before putting it back into the machine.
IMPORTANT: Don’t over fill the dirt container to avoid blocking the air flow through the machine.
IMPORTANT: Wash the pre-motor filter with warm water (40°C max) and leave for 24 hours or until
fully dry before replacing into the machine. For best cleaning results, filters should be tapped over a
bin every 4-6 uses to remove dirt/debris, washed every 3 months (depending on the level of use)
and replaced every 9-12 months. Ensure all filters are in place before using the machine.
