Frequently Asked Questions - ST 19 TEAM

How to assemble the ST 19 vacuum cleaner?

Unpack the appliance and its accessories. Connect the hose end into the front opening until it clicks. Assemble the tube onto the hose handle, then attach the combination nozzle or other accessory to the other end of the tube. The combination nozzle allows cleaning all surfaces by changing the brush position: brush retracted for carpets and rugs, brush extended for hard floors.

How to use the combination nozzle for different surfaces?

The combination nozzle has two positions: brush retracted position for carpets and rugs, and brush extended position for tiles or parquet (hard floors). Simply switch the brush according to the surface to be cleaned.

When should the dust bag be changed?

The bag full indicator turns red when the bag is full and needs to be replaced. Note: if suction is blocked by an object, the indicator may also turn red; in that case, remove the object before changing the bag. If the indicator remains red after lifting the brush from the surface, the bag is full.

What to do if the bag full indicator turns red even though the bag is not full?

This can happen if suction is blocked by a large debris or if you are vacuuming a thick carpet. In that case, remove the blocking object or lift the brush from the surface. If the indicator stays red, the bag is full; otherwise, you can continue using the vacuum cleaner.

How to clean the filters of the ST 19 vacuum cleaner?

The appliance has two filters: a motor protection filter (in the dust compartment) and an air filter (at the rear). To clean them (every 3 months approximately), open the compartment, remove the filter, clean it with water and detergent, rinse and let dry completely before replacing. Close properly.

What to do if suction decreases or the appliance makes an abnormal noise?

First check for blockages in the tube or hose. If suction is obstructed, unplug the appliance and clear the duct. If the problem persists (reduced power, abnormal noise, complete stop), take the appliance to an authorized center for inspection or repair.

How to use the cord rewinder?

Pull the plug to obtain the desired cord length. A yellow mark indicates that you have almost fully unwound the cord, and a red mark is the maximum limit not to exceed. To rewind the cord after use, turn off the appliance, unplug it, then press the rewinder button; the cord will rewind automatically.

Can I vacuum liquids with this vacuum cleaner?

No, this vacuum cleaner is designed only for dry floors. Never vacuum liquids, especially flammable liquids. This could damage the appliance and pose a danger.

How to store the vacuum cleaner after use?

Turn off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF switch. Unplug it. Press the rewinder button to store the cord. Store the appliance in a dry place away from heat and humidity. You can place it vertically to save space.

Where to find replacement bags for the ST 19 vacuum cleaner?

For any replacement of bags or motor protection filter, contact the store where you purchased the vacuum cleaner or the TEAM after-sales service. Use only paper bags recommended by the manufacturer.
