Your SEBO essential G series vacuum cleaner is the most technically advanced upright vacuum cleaner in
the world. Along with its excellent filtration system (99.9% to 0.3 microns), the machine has warning systems
and automatic shut-off capabilities that are designed to alert the user to machine problems that, if ignored,
will damage the machine or diminish performance. Some of your SEBO essential’s most
unique features are:
1.
S-Class Filtration. Certified by leading Allergy foundations in Europe, the essential
G-Series vacuum provides the user with S-Class filtration of 99.9% of particles to 0.3
microns. This is accomplished by the SEBO three-step filtration system. First, the
three-layer full-size filter bag (a) collects the vast majority of the debris. Then, the
remainder of the particles are collected by the hospital-grade microfilter (b). Finally,
the micro-exhaust filter (c) cleans the exhaust air that the vacuum emits. SEBO’s
unwavering attention to the complete sealing of the machine ensures no dust or dirt
escapes around the microfilters. If the microfilters are changed regularly (every 10-
20 bags), the essential G is perfect for allergy or asthma sufferers.
2.
Brush Roller Obstruction – Auto Shut-Off. If the brush roller is obstructed, the
machine will shut off in 3 seconds and the red “CHECK BRUSH” light located on top
of the power head will flash. The user should turn the switch off, unplug the machine
and immediately remove the obstruction. If the user restarts the machine without
removing the obstruction, the machine will again shut off in 3 seconds and the
“CHECK BRUSH” light will flash.
3.
Brush Roller Deterioration Warning. If the red “CHECK BRUSH” light is illuminated continuously
while the head is in position 1 (after a 10 second delay) it is signalling the user that the brush roller is
too worn and, therefore, should be replaced. The light will remain illuminated until the worn brush roller
is replaced, but the machine will continue to operate in the meantime.
4.
Stationary Use Warning. When the machine has its handle in the upright-locked position, it is
designed to disengage the brush roller from the floor by raising the height of the power head. If the
power head is in position 1 (the highest setting) but is still engaged in the carpet, the “CHECK BRUSH”
light will slowly flash to alert the user. This can occur on extremely high-nap carpet, such as loose-pile
shag, or on carpets with extraordinarily thick padding underneath. However, it is typically caused by the
user pulling forward on the machine while using the attachment hose or active wand. This feature was
designed to be an alert to the user to “take care” while the machine is stationary. An operating machine
should not stand stationary on the floor for inappropriate periods of time.
5.
Bag Full or Clog Warning – Auto Shut-Off. If the vacuum’s air flow pathway becomes restricted
due to a full bag or the existence of a clog, the red “BAG FULL OR CLOG” light located on top of the
power head will illuminate. If the user ignores this warning for approximately 30 seconds, the machine
will shut off and the “BAG FULL OR CLOG” light will flash. The user should turn the switch off, unplug
the machine and immediately insert a new bag or remove the clog (to remove a clog, refer to the Clog
Removal section on page 9). If the user restarts the machine without having solved the problem, the
“BAG FULL OR CLOG” light will again illuminate and the machine will shut off in 30 seconds.
