• Check if the operation procedure is correct according to the instructions within this manual. Odor comes out of the cleaner?

• Some odors are normal when the product is first operated and will diminish within 3 months of normal operation.

• Odors can also be caused by old dust in the dust bin and filters that has not been cleaned for some time. Empty, clean and wash the dust bin and filters thoroughly before reusing the appliance. Hot air comes out, and main body is hot?

• The air coming out of the outlet holes may be warm because it is coming out after cooling the motor. This is normal. It only vibrates, and there is no suction.
