Frequently Asked Questions - VS04G2200 SIEMENS

How to change the dust bag?

To change the dust bag, open the compartment by pressing the unlock button. Remove the full bag and insert a new compatible bag (Model Z). Close the compartment until it clicks.

How to clean the HEPA filter?

Remove the HEPA filter by turning it counterclockwise. Wash it with lukewarm water (without detergent) and let it dry completely for 24 hours before reinstalling. Do not use in an oven.

What to do if the vacuum loses power?

First, check if the bag is full. Inspect the HEPA filter and clean it if necessary. A loss of power can also be caused by a blockage in the tube or hose. Disassemble and remove obstructions.

How to use the hardwood floor nozzle?

The hard floor nozzle has soft brushes. Attach it by clipping the end onto the tube. Set the power to minimum position to avoid scratching the floor. For carpets, use the provided carpet nozzle.

The vacuum stops suddenly, what to do?

This may be due to overheating. Let the appliance cool down for 30 minutes before restarting. Also check that the filter and ducts are not blocked.

How to store the power cord?

Use the automatic cord winder located at the back of the vacuum. Gently press the pedal to wind the cord smoothly. Hold the cord during winding to prevent knots.

Can I use the vacuum on hard floors?

Yes, the vacuum is suitable for hard floors (tile, hardwood, laminate) thanks to the included specific nozzle. Avoid using the motorized brush on delicate floors without checking compatibility.

How to replace the brush of the nozzle?

Unclip the worn brush by pushing the side tab. Insert the new brush aligning it with the notches and push until it clicks. Replacement brushes are available under reference Z....

Where can I buy spare parts?

Spare parts (bags, filters, brushes) are available from authorized Siemens dealers, online on the official website, or in home appliance stores. Use the model number VS04G2200 to find the correct parts.

What is the lifespan of the filter?

The washable HEPA filter can last up to 2 years with regular maintenance (cleaning every 3 months). Replace it earlier if you notice a drop in performance or odors.

Please note

● The mains socket must be protected by a 16 amp fuse.

If a fuse is be tripped when you switch on the vacuum cleaner, this may be because other electrical appliances which have a high current draw are connected to the same power circuit.

You have purchased a floor vacuum cleaner which can vacuum up any type of dry dirt using the dust collector or dust bag.

We recommend that you use:

• the dust collector, in particular for your hobbies, e.g. to remove wood shavings, etc.
• the dust bag principally for everyday household cleaning.

Using the dust collector

Figure 15

Set the power setting to maximum for the best results when vacuuming.

We recommend that you reduce the setting only when vacuuming very delicate materials.

■ Attention: The dust bag change indicator

- only functions correctly in conjunction with a dust bag.

Emptying the dust collector

To achieve an optimal result when vacuuming, the dust collector should be emptied each time the vacuum cleaner is used.

Figure 16

Turn the dust compartment locking lever in the direction of the arrow to open the dust compartment cover.

Figure 17

Remove the dust container from the appliance.

Figure 18

■Release the two snap locks on the bottom flap in the direction of the arrow, open the flap until it clicks into the stop position and the container will then empty the dirt in a downwards direction.
■If the bottom flap is very dirty, (thick dirt) clean it before closing, by vacuuming it with the crevice nozzle, for example.
(You must fit the dust bag in the vacuum cleaner when you do this - see Figure 23)
■Close the bottom flap so that it can be heard snapping into position.

Figure 19

Put the dust bag back into the vacuum cleaner and close the dust bag compartment lid.

Caution: The inside of the dust container may become scratched with use and start to look opaque. This does not, however, affect the performance of the vacuum cleaner in any way, i.e. it will continue to function as normal.

Cleaning the permanent filters and micro filters in the dust container

The filters must be cleaned:

■After any operating malfunctions, i.e. after a blockage is cleared.
■At least every six months.

Figure 20

■Press the fastener on the rear side of the container and remove the micro filter from the bottom of the container.
■Remove the permanent filter from the bottom plate of the container.

Figure 21

■ Wash the micro- and permanent filters. The filter must then be left to dry for at least 24 hours.
■ After cleaning, place the permanent filter on the bottom plate of the container.
Put the micro filter onto the container and fix it in place by pushing in the direction of the arrow. You will hear the flap snap shut.

Blockages

Removing a blockage in the dust container.

Figure 22

■Empty the container (see figure 18)
■Loosen the blockage, e.g. with a screwdriver, and tap or vacuum it out.
(You must fit a dust bag in the vacuum cleaner before vacuuming it out - see Figure 23)
■Close the bottom flap so that it can be heard snapping into position.

■ Caution: The micro- and permanent filters
- must be cleaned following any operating problem (see Figure 20 and 21).

Using dust bags

If necessary, a dust bag may be used instead of the dust collector.

Part number on the spare filter packaging:

VZ52AFG1

Figure 23

■Open the vacuum cleaner lid (see Figure 16)
■Remove the dust collector and insert a dust bag.
■Close the vacuum cleaner lid.

You have bought an extremely powerful device. The highest suction setting is therefore only recommended for heavily soiled, short-pile carpets and hard floors.

The required suction power can be selected by adjusting the suction regulator (see Figure 8).

■Low suction range:
For vacuuming delicate fabrics, e.g. curtains.
■Middle suction range:
For daily vacuuming of lightly soiled floors.
■High suction range:
For vacuuming durable floor coverings, hard floors and for heavily soiled surfaces.

Replacing the dust bag

Figure 24*

If the dust bag change indicator is completely yellow when the floor tool is lifted from the floor and the highest suction power is selected, the dust bag must be changed, even though it may not yet be full. In this case it is essential to change the dust bag due to the type of material it contains.

The nozzle, suction pipe and flexible tube must not be blocked, as this would also lead to dust bag change indicator being triggered.

Attention: The dust bag change indicator - only functions correctly in conjunction with a dust bag.

Figure 25

Open the lid by moving the locking lever in the direction of the arrow.

Figure 26

Seal the dust bag by pulling the locking tab and then remove it.

Figure 27

Place a new dust bag in the holder and close the vacuum cleaner lid.

Caution: The dust bag compartment lid will only close when the dust bag, textile filter or dust collector are inserted.

Cleaning the motor protection filter

The motor protection filter should be cleaned regularly by knocking out the dirt and rinsing.

Figure 28*

■ Open the dust bag compartment lid (see Figure 16).
■ Pull out the motor protection filter in the direction of the arrow.
■ Clean the motor protection filter by tapping it.
■ If it is very dirty, the motor protection filter should be rinsed.
The filter must then be left to dry for at least 24 hours.
■ After cleaning, slide the motor protection filter into the vacuum cleaner and close the dust bag compartment lid.

Care

Always switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect the power cord from the mains before cleaning the appliance.

The vacuum cleaner and plastic accessories can be cleaned with a commercial plastic cleaner.

Do not use a scourer, glass-cleaning agent or multipurpose cleaning product.

Never immerse the vacuum cleaner in water.

If necessary, the dust compartment can be cleaned with a second vacuum cleaner or simply wiped with a dry cloth or dusting brush.

Subject to technical modifications.
