Turn off the vacuum.
Disassemble the unit. Remove the handheld vacuum from wand, the wand from the floor nozzle.

Inspect the connection points on handlheld, both ends of the wand and the nozzle for debris, damage, or burns. Remove any dust or debris.

Smell the nozzle, handheld vacuum and wand separately to ascertain where the smell is coming from.

Often, smells come from improper maintenance / not cleaning the unit.
Follow Instructions to clean the unit below.
If a particular component smells strongly, steps for cleaning other components can be skipped

My vacuum has shorter run time than expected

To get the most run time, ensure that the battery is fully charged before use. You can check this by powering on the unit and reading the UI screen or by plugging the unit into the charger. If UI is 100% or all 3 battery LEDs are solidly illuminated when on the charger, the battery is fully charged.
Note: The unit can take up to 3.5 hours to fully charge.

Run time depends heavily on cleaning mode and floor type.

Disconnect the Wand from the floor Nozzle and Handvac

Drop a small coin (penny, pence, etc.) in one end of the Wand. If the coin doesn’t fall through, then there is a clog that must be cleared. Clear any debris or clogs.

To access the brushroll, turn the nozzle upside down. Use a coin to turn the locks on the bottom cover counter clockwise to open the bottom cover and access the brushroll.

Clear away any clogs or debris around the brushroll. Cut away any hair or string. Reattach the bottom cover, pressing down firmly along all sides.
Turn the locks clockwise to close.
