TROUBLESHOOTING

6 Troubleshooting

To prevent potential problems it is important to empty the dust container in a timely manner and to use this opportunity to check the filters and clean them according to level of contamination. However, if you have a problem with the appliance, use the following table to see whether you can solve the problem yourself.

Before troubleshooting, switch off the appliance and disconnect the power plug from the socket.

Problem Cause/Solution
Light on ON/OFF switch is blue The	filters are contaminated or the air way is clogged. Empty dust container ("Emptying the dust container" on page 21) and clean filters ("Cleaning the dual motor filter" on page 22, "Cleaning the filter screen" on page 22, "Cleaning the exhaust filter" on page 23).
The dust container has come loose while being carried	It is likely that the release button was accidentally pushed during carrying (see Quick Start Guide: "PUSH"). Make sure not to push this button during carrying.
An odour develops or dust escapes from the appliance during vacuuming	It is likely that parts removed for cleaning of filters or changing of accessories were not correctly reinstalled or closed. Check all parts for correct assembly.
The appliance suddenly stops vacuuming	The integrated overheating protection has responded (possibly due to an overfilled dust container or filter). In this case, proceed as follows: 1. Switch off appliance. 2. Disconnect plug from the socket. 3. Eliminate the cause of overheating, either by emptying the dust container ("Emptying the dust container" on page 21) or cleaning the filter ("Cleaning the dual motor filter" on page 22, "Cleaning the filter screen" on page 22, "Cleaning the exhaust filter" on page 23); it is also possible that there is a clog, which must be removed. 4. Be sure to include the hose, nozzle and telescopic tube when searching for the cause of overheating. 5. Close the appliance again and reattach all accessories. 6. Wait about 45 minutes. After the appliance has cooled down it can be switched on again.
The appliance hardly picks up any dirt and/or the suction power drops noticeably	Attached nozzle may be unsuitable for the floor to be cleaned. Select and attach correct nozzle.
	When the floor nozzle is attached, the “carpet/hard floor” selector is in the wrong position for the particular type of floor. Select correct switch position.
The appliance hardly picks up any dirt and/or the suction power drops noticeably	Suction power setting may not be appropriate for the type of floor. Set correct suction power.
	The dust container must be emptied (“Emptying the dust container” on page 21). It is recommended to use this opportunity to also clean the filters (“Cleaning the dual motor filter” on page 22, “Cleaning the filter screen” on page 22, “Cleaning the exhaust filter” on page 23).
