Frequently Asked Questions - VS4PT2200 Profilo

How do I replace the dust bag?

Open the lid by moving the locking lever. Seal the full bag by pulling the sealing strip, then remove. Slide a new original Profilo dust bag into the holder until it stops. Close the lid.

How do I clean the motor protection filter?

Open the dust bag compartment and pull out the filter. Tap it clean or rinse under water. Let it dry for at least 24 hours before reinserting.

Can I vacuum liquids?

No. The vacuum cleaner is not designed for damp or liquid substances. Vacuuming liquids can damage the appliance.

What accessories are compatible with the VS4PT2200?

Only use original Profilo accessories. Optional accessories include a hard floor nozzle, TURBO-UNIVERSAL® upholstery/floor brushes, and HEPA filter.

Why is the suction power reduced?

Check if the dust bag is full (indicator yellow). Also inspect the motor protection filter, hose, and nozzles for blockages. Clean or replace as needed.

How do I store the vacuum cleaner?

Use the storage aid on the underside. Stand the vacuum upright, slide the floor tool catch into the groove on the bottom. Alternatively, use the parking aid on the rear for brief pauses.

How do I adjust the suction power?

Turn the on/off button (which also serves as a rotary dial) in the direction of the arrow to adjust suction from min to max.

Is the vacuum suitable for pet hair?

Yes, especially with the optional TURBO-UNIVERSAL® upholstery or floor brush, which uses suction to drive a roller for effective pet hair removal.

How often should I replace the HEPA filter?

The HEPA filter (optional) should be replaced every year for optimal exhaust air quality, especially for allergy sufferers.

What should I do if the power cord is damaged?

Stop using the appliance immediately and contact an authorized after-sales service for repair. Do not attempt to replace the cord yourself.

Replacing the dust bag

Figure 15\*

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. In this case it is essential to change the dust bag due to the type of material it contains.

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