Frequently Asked Questions - VS5PT24WET Profilo

How do I know when to change the dust bag?

The dust bag change indicator turns completely yellow when the floor tool is lifted and suction is at maximum. Replace the bag even if not full.

Can I vacuum liquids with this vacuum cleaner?

No, this vacuum cleaner is not designed for wet vacuuming unless your model includes the optional integrated wet vacuum cleaning system. Check your manual.

How often should I clean the motor protection filter?

Clean the motor protection filter regularly by tapping out dirt. If very dirty, rinse and let dry for at least 24 hours before reinserting.

Can I use the vacuum cleaner without a dust bag?

No, never operate the vacuum cleaner without a dust bag. This can damage the appliance. The cover will not close without a bag.

What type of filter does my VS5PT24WET use?

It uses a motor protection filter and either a hygiene microfilter or a HEPA filter. If equipped with HEPA, replace it once a year.

How do I store the vacuum cleaner?

Use the storage aid on the underside: stand the vacuum upright and slide the floor tool catch into the groove on the bottom.

What should I do if the power cord does not rewind?

Unplug the vacuum, gently pull the cord again and release. If it still does not rewind, contact after-sales service. Do not force it.

Can I use non-Profilo accessories?

Only use original Profilo accessories to ensure optimal performance and safety. Non-original parts may cause damage.

How do I adjust the suction power?

Turn the on/off button in the direction of the arrow to adjust suction electronically. The lowest setting is recommended when starting to avoid blowing fuses.

What does the yellow indicator on the dust bag mean?

The yellow indicator shows that the dust bag is full or airflow is blocked. Change the bag and check that nozzles and hose are not clogged.

Disposal information

Packaging

Dispose of packaging that is no longer required at an appropriate recycling point.

■ Used vacuum cleaners

Used vacuum cleaners still contain many valuable materials. Therefore, please take your used vacuum cleaner to your retailer or recycling centre to be recycled. For current disposal methods, please enquire at your retailer or your local council.

■ Disposal of filters and dust bags

Filters and dust bags are made from environmentally friendly materials.

As long as they do not contain substances that are not permitted to be disposed of in the household rubbish, you can dispose of them with your normal household rubbish.

Please note

- The mains socket must be protected by at least a 16 amp fuse.

If a fuse should blow when you switch on the appliance, this may be because other electrical appliances which have a high current draw are connected to the same power circuit.

To prevent the fuse from blowing, select the lowest power setting before switching the appliance on, and increase the power only once it is running.

If the dust bag change indicator is completely yellow when the floor tool is lifted from the floor and the highest suction power is selected, the dust bag must be changed, even though it may not yet be full.

The nozzle, suction pipe and flexible tube must not be blocked, as this would also lead to dust bag change indicator being triggered.
