Getting the best from your new cleaner...

If your cleaner is not picking up as well as it should, please check

Filters

It is important that the pleated filter is clicked clean each time the dust
canister is emptied to maintain suction. Regularly remove and wash the
pleated filter, thoroughly dry before re-fitting (see page 5).

Blockages

If the suction feels low, check the floor nozzle, tubes, hose and dust canister
connector for blockages (see page 7).

Safety cut-out

Both the suction and beater bar motors are protected by safety cut-outs,
see page 7 for more details. If these operate, it is important to unplug from
the mains supply before attempting any remedial action.
