Troubleshooting Guide
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).
Because the suction is powerful, take care when vacuuming
scatter-type rugs or rugs with delicately sewn edges.
Airflow is restricted.
No suction or light
suction.
Check Filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow
