troubleshooting
1 The suction power is insufficient.
A The dust container may be full. Empty the dust container.
B The filters may be dirty. Clean or replace the filters.
C The nozzle, tube or hose may be blocked up. To remove the obstruction, disconnect the
blocked-up item and connect it (as far as possible) the other way around. Switch on the vacuum
cleaner to force the air through the blocked-up item in opposite direction.
2 When I use my vacuum cleaner I sometimes feel electric shocks.
A Your vacuum cleaner builds up static electricity. The lower the air humidity, the more static
electricity the appliance builds up. Discharge the appliance by frequently holding the tube against
other metal objects in the room (for example the legs of a table or chair, a radiator etc.). You
can also raise the air humidity level in the room (for example by placing bowls filled with water
on or near radiators).
