To change the vacuum bag, open the front cover by pressing the release button. Remove the old bag by pulling it out of the compartment. Insert a new bag by aligning the collar with the inlet and pushing it firmly into place. Close the front cover until it clicks.
Loss of suction could be due to a full bag, clogged filters, or blockages in the hose. Check and replace the vacuum bag if necessary, clean or replace the filters, and inspect the hose for any blockages or debris.
The HEPA filter should typically be replaced every 6-12 months depending on usage. Check the filter regularly for signs of wear or clogging and replace it if it appears dirty or damaged.
The pre-motor filter can be rinsed with water. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting. The HEPA filter is not washable and should be replaced as needed.
First, unplug the vacuum and check for any tangled hair or debris around the brush roll. Remove any obstructions. If the problem persists, inspect the belt for damage and replace it if necessary.
To adjust the height, locate the height adjustment dial on the base of the vacuum. Turn the dial to the desired setting based on your floor type, ranging from low for hard floors to high for thick carpets.
Store the vacuum in a cool, dry place. Ensure the power cord is neatly wrapped around the hooks provided and that all attachments are secured on the vacuum. Avoid storing it in areas with high humidity or temperature fluctuations.
Check if the vacuum is plugged into a working outlet and ensure the power switch is turned on. Inspect the power cord for any damage. If these are fine, the issue may be internal, and professional servicing may be required.
Regularly check and replace the vacuum bag, clean or replace filters, inspect the brush roll and belt, and check for blockages in the hose and nozzle. Keeping the vacuum clean and free from debris ensures optimal performance.
Ensure all parts are securely attached and the vacuum bag is not overfilled. Check for blockages in the hose and nozzle, as these can increase noise levels. Regular maintenance can also help in reducing operational noise.
