What should I do if the I notice a change of suction?

If you should detect a change of suction in your vacuum, you should first check to make sure your filters are clean.

• Start by opening the dust cup and locating the screen or mesh filter inside. Ensure that all dirt, debris and hair is removed from that screen.
• Next, remove the filters and knock all dirt and dust loose. You may want to do this outside. Now, replace your filters and close the dust cup. Test the vacuum’s suction against your hand.

If the filters are clean, but suction continues to fail, this may indicate that you have a clog between the wand and the floor brush.

• First, you’ll want to remove and inspect the wand to make sure there are no obstructions.
• Next, check the floor nozzle to make sure there are no blockages in the airpath or that there is not excess hair or fibers around the brushroll.
• Lastly, check all dust cup intake openings to make sure they’re clear. Once you remove any obstructions, you should be good as new to start cleaning again.

What should I do if the brush roll stops spinning?

If the brushroll indicator light on the floor nozzle turns red, the brush roll has stopped spinning. Immediately turn off and unplug the vacuum, disconnect the nozzle and remove blockage before reconnecting and turning vacuum back on.
