The dustbag is full. Empty the reusable dustbag or replace

the disposable dustbag.

The filters are dirty. Clean or replace the filters.

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.

When I use my vacuum

cleaner I sometimes feel

electric shocks.

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.

Specific types only: The

infrared remote control

does not function.

The batteries do not make

full contact or have not been

inserted properly.

Remove the lid of the battery

compartment and insert the batteries

correctly. Make sure the - and + poles

point in the right direction.

The batteries are empty. Replace the batteries. You can continue

to vacuum but you cannot use the

remote control to increase or decrease

the suction. power or to switch off the

appliance. To switch off the appliance,

press the on/off button on the
