Why won't the motor of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 start despite the lights being on?
Frequently Asked Questions - 10 j
Response Notice-Facile

Warning: the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 only starts the motor if it is tilted backwards. If you press the power button while the device is upright, it will automatically turn off even if the lights come on. This means that the illumination of the LEDs does not indicate that the motor is ready to operate.

Before concluding that there is a motor failure, check these points in order:

  • Is the device properly tilted? Press the power button, then tilt the FLOORWASHER FL5 backwards to start cleaning. This is the essential condition for the motor to start. Do not tilt the device more than 150 degrees to avoid water leaks.
  • Insufficiently charged battery Even if the lights come on, a partially charged battery cannot power the motor. Charge the device on its base for at least 6 hours (6 ± 0.5 h according to specifications) before any use. The LED illumination starts after a few minutes, but a full charge is mandatory for the motor to operate.
  • Poorly engaged tanks Both tanks must be inserted until you hear a click. A poorly positioned tank interrupts the electrical circuit and prevents the motor from starting. Check the clean water tank (850 ml) and the dirty water tank (750 ml) by pressing them firmly until you hear the characteristic click.
  • Dirty water tank full When the dirty water tank reaches its capacity of 750 ml, the device automatically stops and the corresponding light comes on. Completely empty the tank and clean the lid with a dirt separator before restarting.
  • Blocked cleaning roller Open the release lever located on the left side to access the roller. Check that no hair, debris, or object is wrapped around the shaft. The roller must turn freely. Use the hook of the provided brush to remove tangled hair.
  • Clogged HEPA filters Remove the two HEPA filters from the dirty water tank and rinse them thoroughly under running water. Let them air dry before reinstalling them. A saturated filter limits the motor's ability to create the necessary suction and may prevent starting. This is a common cause of motor problems.
  • Blocked suction tube or nozzle Inspect the aluminum tube and the suction nozzle to ensure that no debris is blocking them. A blockage reduces suction and may prevent the motor from operating. Clean the nozzle with a damp cloth if necessary.

If after following these steps the motor still does not start, do not force the power button. Contact an authorized repair center for inspection, as there may be an electrical fault or an internal motor issue.

Where is the float located on the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 and how can I access it?
Frequently Asked Questions - 18 j
Response Notice-Facile

The float of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 is located in the lid of the dirty water tank (capacity 750 ml). It is a small device that detects the level of dirty water and triggers the automatic shutdown of the device when the tank is full.

How to access it: First, press the unlock button of the dirty water tank to remove it from the device. Then, while holding the tank, press the unlock button again and lift the lid with the dirt separator upwards. The float is integrated into this lid and remains attached during removal.

Float maintenance: To avoid malfunctions, we recommend rinsing the float regularly with tap water, especially when cleaning the tank after each use. In case of blockage or limescale deposits, rinse the lid, float, and dirt separator together with tap water. A dirty or defective float can cause false detection of the water level, leading to either premature shutdown of the device or failure to automatically shut off when the tank is full.

Reinstallation: After cleaning, allow the lid with the float to air dry before replacing it on the dirty water tank. Then, reinsert the complete tank into the main part of the device by pushing it in until you hear a click.

How to reduce the amount of water when washing with the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5?
Frequently Asked Questions - 18 j
Response Notice-Facile

If too much water is released during washing, here’s how to correct it:

1. Fill the clean water tank less

The clean water tank of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 has a maximum capacity of 850 ml. Instead of filling it to the MAX mark, pour in less water (between 500 and 700 ml depending on your needs). Less water in the tank = less water sprayed on the floor.

2. Use the appropriate mode

The device offers four cleaning modes that automatically adjust the water distribution:

  • Standard mode - Classic cleaning
  • Power mode - For stubborn stains (uses more water)
  • Water absorption mode - Reduces moisture on the floor
  • Electrolyzed water mode - Disinfection without detergent (water-saving)

Select the mode that suits your needs. For less water, prefer the absorption mode or the electrolyzed mode.

3. Do not exceed the maximum temperature

Only use tap water at a maximum of 60°C. Water that is too hot does not cause more water, but respect this limit to protect the device.

If after these adjustments water is still flowing excessively, this may indicate an abnormal flow issue (damaged valve or hose) - in this case, consult the manufacturer's technical support.

Why does my VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner emit a high-pitched whistling noise from the motor?
Frequently Asked Questions - 28 j
Response Notice-Facile

Main causes of the high-pitched whistling

A high-pitched whistling noise coming from the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 motor usually indicates a ventilation problem or an air restriction. Here are the causes and solutions to check as a priority:

  • Blocked suction nozzle - Clean the suction nozzle to remove any blockage that restricts air
  • Full dirty water tank - Completely empty the dirty water tank (capacity 750ml). Even if it doesn't seem full to the brim, a buildup of water strains the motor and causes the whistling
  • Clogged HEPA filter grid - This is the most common cause. Clean the HEPA filter grid located above the float with tap water and let it dry completely before reinstalling

Recommended procedure: Perform these three checks in order. A clean filter and an empty tank should be maintained after each use to prevent this issue.

If the noise persists after a thorough cleaning of these three elements, it may indicate an internal malfunction of the motor requiring professional repair.

What amount of detergent should be added to the water tank of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5?
Frequently Asked Questions - 20/05/2026
Response Notice-Facile

The clean water tank of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 has a maximum capacity of 850 ml. For use in standard washing mode, pour 16 ml of neutral liquid detergent into this tank, then fill up to the MAX mark with tap water at a temperature not exceeding 60°C.

Important: Only use a neutral cleaning product specifically designed for floors. Never add acids, alkaline solutions, or aggressive chemicals - they would damage the device.

You also have an alternative: the electrolysis water mode allows you to fill the tank with tap water only (up to 850 ml) for natural disinfection without chemicals. If you wish, you can even add 16 ml of diluted detergent in this mode as well.

Why is the roller of my VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner blocked and refusing to turn?
Frequently Asked Questions - 09/05/2026
Response Notice-Facile

Main cause: Hair or debris are usually tangled around the roller shaft, which blocks it. Even after surface cleaning, hair may remain wrapped around the ends of the shaft.

Unblocking steps:

  • Open the unlock lever located on the left side and pull the roller to the left to completely remove it.
  • Use the brush hook provided to remove any tangled hair around both ends of the roller shaft.
  • Rinse the roller under running water and manually check that the shaft turns freely.
  • Wipe the inside of the compartment with a damp cloth - limescale deposits can also block rotation.
  • Reinsert the roller: start with the right end in its socket, align the left end, then close the lever until you hear a click to confirm correct locking.

Maintenance tip: Clean the roller after each use to prevent hair from accumulating and completely immobilizing the device.

If after this cleaning the roller turns freely by hand but remains blocked during operation, there may be a motor or belt issue - contact the manufacturer's technical support.

Why does my VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner charge poorly and how can I resolve this issue?
Frequently Asked Questions - 27/04/2026
Response Notice-Facile

If your VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner charges poorly, several causes may be responsible. The device has a 3,000 mAh (22.2V) battery and should fully charge in 6 ± 0.5 hours. During charging, the LED indicator around the battery icon should light up and animate on the display panel.

Checking the charging dock and connectors. Start by ensuring that the vacuum cleaner is correctly placed on the charging dock, as poor contact is the most common cause. Examine the charging connectors on the device and on the dock: they should be clean and free of dust, moisture, or debris. Gently clean them with a dry cloth if necessary.

Checking the electrical outlet and cable. Test the electrical outlet by plugging in another device to confirm that it is working properly. Inspect the power cable and its connectors for signs of wear, cuts, or visible damage. Ensure that the cable is properly connected to both the charging dock and the wall outlet.

Optimal charging conditions. Place the charging dock in a dry location away from moisture. During charging, the device may emit a small noise: this is normal, as it corresponds to the cooling of the battery and helps optimize the charge. Allow the device to charge for at least 6 hours before first use.

Post-charge maintenance. Once the charge is completely finished (LED indicator off), immediately unplug the charging cable. Do not overcharge the battery as this may cause overheating or deformation.

If after checking the dock contact, cleaning the connectors, and testing the electrical outlet your device continues to charge poorly or does not charge at all, the battery may be defective. In this case, do not use the product and contact an authorized repair center for inspection and professional intervention.

What is the purpose of the electrolysis water mode on the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5?
Frequently Asked Questions - 30/03/2026
Response Notice-Facile

The electrolysis water mode of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 is a specialized cleaning mode designed to transform the water in the tank into an electrolyzed solution with disinfectant properties. Unlike standard modes, this mode generates a water electrolysis process that allows for floor cleaning with enhanced antimicrobial capabilities, without requiring the addition of extra chemical products.

To activate this mode, keep the device running and press the mode button located on the handle in succession. The FLOORWASHER FL5 offers four alternating modes: Standard mode (default), Power mode (for stubborn dirt), Water absorb mode (to absorb excess water), and finally the Electrolysis water mode for disinfection. A LED indicator lights up on the control panel to confirm that the water electrolysis process for disinfection is underway.

Recommended uses: This mode is particularly useful for cleaning and disinfecting floors in an eco-friendly manner, especially in sensitive areas where enhanced hygiene is important (kitchens, bathrooms, high-traffic areas). The process naturally eliminates bacteria and germs without relying on harsh detergents, making it more respectful of delicate surfaces such as marble, granite, or treated floors.

To effectively use this mode, fill the clean water tank with a maximum of 850ml of tap water at a temperature not exceeding 60°C. If you wish to combine this mode with a neutral floor detergent, you can add up to 16ml of product diluted in water. The electrolysis water mode operates for the entire battery life (approximately 30 minutes). After use, always empty the dirty water tank as soon as the filling indicator lights up, and regularly clean the filters to maintain the effectiveness of the electrolysis device.

How does the washing work with the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner?
Frequently Asked Questions - 16/03/2026
Response Notice-Facile

The VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner operates on a continuous cycle that combines water spraying, mechanical brushing, and suction. The process begins by filling the clean water tank with tap water (maximum temperature 60°C), ensuring not to exceed the MAX line indicated on the tank. For deep cleaning, you can add 16 ml of neutral liquid detergent for floors to the water. It is important to use only detergents specifically designed for floor cleaning, never acidic, alkaline, or polluting products.

Once the device is loaded and the water is prepared, using it is simple: press the power button to turn on the device, then tilt it backward to start cleaning. At this point, the FLOORWASHER FL5 automatically sprays water onto the floor while activating its rotating cleaning roller, which scrubs and loosens embedded dirt. The device can operate in several modes according to your needs: the Standard Mode is ideal for daily cleaning, the Power Mode is suitable for tough stains and difficult-to-remove dirt, and the Water Absorption Mode allows for recovering excess moisture on the floor after washing. An Electrolyzed Water Mode is also available for enhanced disinfection.

Simultaneously with the washing, a powerful suction system immediately collects dirty water and debris to store them in the separate dirty water tank, equipped with a dust separator and a HEPA filter. This continuous suction smooths and deeply cleans the floor in a single pass. The device automatically shuts off when the dirty water tank is full, signaling this with an LED indicator.

The FLOORWASHER FL5 is designed for all indoor hard floors, including varnished parquet, stone, rubber, marble, granite, terrazzo, solid wood, composite, bamboo, and all types of tiles. Do not tilt the device more than 150 degrees while cleaning to avoid water leaks.

After each use, immediately empty the dirty water tank and clean it with the provided brush, especially the dust separator. Also, clean the HEPA filter under running water and let it dry completely before reinstalling it. Place the device on its charging base and activate the roller self-cleaning function, which automatically cleans and dries the cleaning brush. This regular maintenance after each session keeps your vacuum cleaner's performance optimal.

What does the green light near the roller on the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner mean?
Frequently Asked Questions - 01/03/2026
Response Notice-Facile

The green light near the roller on your VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 is a built-in green LED indicator on the brush head. This technological feature has a specific practical use: it allows you to detect dust and dirt that are invisible to the naked eye while you clean. It is a technology similar to that found in high-end devices.

When the green light is on and remains lit during operation, it indicates that the device is functioning normally and the dust detection system is active. This LED light helps you see where dirt particles, dust, and microscopic residues are concentrated on the floor, allowing you to clean more effectively and thoroughly, especially in poorly lit areas.

Important: the lit green light does not signal a problem. On the contrary, it is a positive indicator that the roller is in place and the device is ready to operate correctly. However, if you see other LED indicators on the display panel (such as the low battery indicator, blocked roller, or full dirty water tank), these indicate a situation requiring action on your part.

To optimize the use of this green light, regularly clean the cleaning roller after each use and ensure that the clean water tank is properly filled before starting.

What does the flashing pictogram on the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner mean when the device stops after 3 seconds?
Frequently Asked Questions - 07/02/2026
Response Notice-Facile

When the battery pictogram flashes on your VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner and the device stops after 3 seconds, it means that there is a detected anomaly in the motor. This alert signal is a protective mechanism to prevent damage to the device. Here’s how to diagnose and resolve this issue.

The main cause is often a blockage in the suction tube that obstructs airflow and forces the motor to stop for its protection. Before any intervention, turn off the device, unplug it, and then tilt it slightly backward. You can then visually check the inside of the aluminum tube and remove any accumulated debris (hair, small objects, residues) that may be blocking the passage. This is the most important check.

Next, check that the suction nozzle is not blocked. Wipe this area with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove any sticky residue. Also, clean the cleaning roller by removing any hair or debris that may have wrapped around it. If the roller is heavily soiled, use the hook of the provided cleaning brush to remove tangled hair, then rinse the roller under running water. Ensure that the roller moves freely without resistance.

The HEPA filter is also a crucial element. Remove the dirty water tank and clean the HEPA filter by rinsing it under running water. Allow it to dry completely in the open air before replacing it. A clogged filter can create excessive air resistance that causes the motor to stop. Also, check that the dirty water tank is not full, as when it reaches its maximum capacity (750 ml), the device automatically shuts off as a safety system.

Another important point: make sure that the device is not in too vertical a position. To operate, it must be slightly tilted backward. If you hold it upright, it will stop even if you press the on/off button. Also, check that the battery is fully charged (minimum 6 hours of charging) and that all tanks (clean water and dirty water) are properly inserted and locked with an audible click.

If despite these thorough cleanings the pictogram continues to flash and the device still stops after 3 seconds, this indicates an internal malfunction of the motor or detection system. Do not use the device in this case and contact VALBERG customer service or take it to an authorized repair center for inspection and specialized repair.

How to solve the problem of the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 vacuum cleaner that stops indicating that the dirty water tank is full when it is empty and clean?
Frequently Asked Questions - 16/12/2025
Response Notice-Facile

The stopping issue with the message 'dirty water tank full' on the VALBERG FLOORWASHER FL5 is generally caused by a blockage in the dirty water level detection system, rather than a true filling of the tank. Here are the concrete steps to resolve this issue.

Cleaning the float and sensor: The detection system uses a float located in the tank lid. This float can become clogged with residues, limescale, or debris, causing a false detection. Remove the dirty water tank by pressing the release button located on the side of the device. Open the lid and gently clean the float, lid, and dirt separator with tap water. Use a soft cloth to remove deposits without damaging the parts. Allow to dry completely before reassembling.

Cleaning the HEPA filter: The HEPA filter grid above the float may also be dirty, which interferes with level detection. Remove the HEPA filter from the tank and clean it under running water. Let it air dry for at least an hour before putting it back in place. This is a common cause of this problem as the HEPA filter needs to be cleaned after each use.

Correct re-insertion of the tank: Once the components are cleaned and dry, reinsert the HEPA filter onto the lid, then replace the lid on the dirty water tank. Then insert the tank into the slot of the main part of the device, ensuring it clicks into place properly. Incorrect insertion may prevent the detection system from functioning normally. The tank has a capacity of 750 ml and the device stops automatically as soon as this maximum level is reached.

Restart: After completing the cleaning and re-insertion, unplug the device for a few minutes, then plug it back in and test it. This allows for a complete reset of the system.

If after these steps the problem persists and the device continues to stop while the tank is empty, the float or detection system may be defective. In this case, stop using the device and contact an authorized VALBERG repair center to have the device inspected and repaired.
