Frequently Asked Questions - VC506AC Vonroc

How to change the HEPA filter?

To change the HEPA filter, turn off the appliance and unplug it. Remove the top section, then remove the used HEPA filter from the filter cage. Carefully slide the new HEPA filter onto the cage, ensuring it covers the entire cage. Put the top section back in place and lock the clips.

Can I vacuum liquids with this vacuum?

Yes, this vacuum can vacuum liquids. For this, use the foam filter (not the HEPA filter). Do not use a dust bag. When the liquid level reaches the maximum, the float automatically cuts off suction. Empty the tank immediately after use.

How to use the blower function?

To use the blower function, remove the filter and empty the tank. Connect the hose to the blower outlet located on top of the machine. Turn on the appliance. Always wear safety goggles and keep people and pets away from the area.

What to do if the vacuum stops during wet vacuuming?

If the vacuum stops during wet vacuuming, it means the maximum liquid level has been reached. Immediately turn off the appliance, unplug it, and empty the tank. Check that the float is not obstructed.

How to clean the foam filter?

Wash the foam filter in clean water with mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and let it dry completely in the air before reinstalling. Never reuse a wet filter.

Which dust bag to use?

The recommended dust bag is the Vonroc model VC805AA or VC809AA. Use a dust bag in addition to the HEPA filter to vacuum fine dust like cement, plaster, or soot.

Can I vacuum hot ashes?

No, never vacuum hot ashes, cigarettes, or glowing materials. This could damage the filter and cause a fire.

Is the vacuum suitable for professional use?

This vacuum is designed for household use (home, workshop, garage, vehicle). It is not intended for commercial or heavy-duty use.

How to store the cable?

The vacuum has an integrated cord storage. Wrap the cord around the appliance as shown in the manual. Store the appliance in a dry place, out of reach of children.

What to do in case of loss of power?

Check that the tank is not full, that the filters (HEPA or foam) are not clogged, and that the hose is not blocked. Clean or replace the filters if necessary. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center.
