Frequently Asked Questions - RCT 109 Cyclonic FAKIR

How do I empty the dust container?

Press the release button on the dust container and lift it out. Hold it over a trash bin, press the bottom release to empty, then close and reattach.

How often should I clean the filters?

Clean the HEPA filter every 3 months. Tap off excess dust or rinse with water (let dry completely before reinserting). Replace every 6-12 months.

Can I use this vacuum for liquids?

No. The RCT 109 Cyclonic is designed for dry vacuuming only. Using it for liquids can damage the motor and void warranty.

What is the advantage of a cyclonic vacuum?

Cyclonic action separates dust from air using centrifugal force, maintaining constant suction and reducing filter clogging compared to bagged models.

How do I change the belt on the brush roller?

The RCT 109 does not have a belt-driven brush roller. Suction is used for floor cleaning. If you have a power nozzle, refer to the manual.

Why is the suction reduced?

Check if the dust container is full, or if filters are clogged. Also inspect the hose for blockages. Clean or replace filters as needed.

Where can I buy spare parts?

Spare parts such as filters and nozzles are available on the Fakir website or authorized dealers. Use original parts for best performance.

How do I store the vacuum cleaner?

Detach the hose and accessories. Store the unit in a dry place, with the cord wrapped around the cord hooks. Keep away from heat sources.

What does the red indicator light mean?

A red light may indicate a full dust container or clogged filter. Empty and clean accordingly. If light persists, check for blockages.

Is the vacuum suitable for pet hair?

Yes, the cyclonic design and included upholstery tool help pick up pet hair. Clean the brush and filter regularly to prevent tangles.
