Clearing Blockages
Disconnect cleaner from electrical outlet.
The hose on the back of the vacuum cleaner that carries the dirt from the nozzle to the Dirt Cup can
sometimes become clogged. If you notice a change in the sound of the vacuum motor, check for blockages.
Check this list of possible problems and solutions before bringing your vacuum to a service center.
Remove the Hose and disconnect
the Wand.
Check for clogs in the vacuum
base, the wand, the hose and the
suction inlet.
If the blockage persists, turn the
vacuum cleaner off and unplug it.
Remove the bottom plate. Lift up
the short hose in the base of the
vacuum. Inspect the hose for clogs
and remove any obstructions.
Replace the short nozzle hose and
the bottom plate.
Remove Dirt Cup and check Upper
Tank and Louvers.
Check to make sure Louvers are
Installed correctly. To unlock the
Louvers, grasp the rim and turn
Toward the left. Pull straight down
to remove. If the Louvers are
missing or not locked into place,
check and clear the tube in the
center of the Dirt Cup.
