Frequently Asked Questions - Coupe Special NILFISK

How do I change the dust bag of the Nilfisk Coupe Special vacuum cleaner?

When the fill indicator turns fully red, it is time to change the bag. Stop and unplug the appliance, open the container, remove the full bag and replace it with an original Nilfisk bag. Close the container.

What should I do if the vacuum cleaner does not start?

Check that the plug is properly inserted and that the building fuse has not blown. If the cable or plug are damaged, have them repaired by an authorized service center.

Why is the suction power decreasing?

This may be due to a full bag, a saturated pre-filter or HEPA filter, or a blockage in the curved tube, hose, tube or nozzle. Check and replace filters or clean the ducts.

How do I adjust the suction power?

Use the regulator located on the appliance or on the curved tube. Closed = maximum power, open = minimum power.

When should I replace the pre-filter?

The pre-filter should be replaced every four dust bag changes. It is located behind the bag.

Can the HEPA filter be washed?

No, the HEPA filter cannot be brushed or washed. It must be replaced when it is saturated.

What should I do if the vacuum cleaner stops during use?

The thermal fuse may have blown. Stop and unplug the appliance, check that no blockage is hindering the airflow, let it cool down, then plug it in again and try again. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center.

Can I vacuum water with this vacuum cleaner?

No, the appliance is not designed to vacuum water or other liquids. This could damage the appliance and pose a risk.

What accessories are supplied with the vacuum cleaner?

Depending on the model, you have a round brush, a hard floor nozzle, a combination nozzle and possibly a Turbo nozzle. Consult the manual for the exact accessories.

Where can I buy original dust bags and filters?

You can order the original Nilfisk bags and filters from your local dealer or on the manufacturer's official website.

Change of dust bag and fi Iters

The size and quality of the dust bag and fi Iters affect the machine effi cien-cy. Use of non original dust bags or non original fi Iters can cause restricted air flow which may lead to machine overload. Using non-original dust bag or fi Iters will void the warranty.

3 Changing the dust bag

The dust bag indicator shows completely red when to change the dust bag.

Always use original dust bags.

4 Changing the prefi Iter

The prefi Iter protects the motor by absorbing micro-particles that the dust bag can not keep. Change the prefi Iter with every fourth dust bag. The prefi Iter is located behind the dust bag. Always use original fi Iters.

5 Changing the HEPA fi Iter

The HEPA fi Iter cleans the exhaust air from micro particles the dust bag can not keep. The HEPA fi Iter can not be brushed or washed clean.

Adjust the suction power

6 Parking the tube and nozzle

There are two grooves for parking. One located on the underside to use when machine stands on the back, and the other on the back to use when the machine is standing on its wheels.

Restart
