6 Rinse to remove the soap, and air dry before using them.
hose
7 Wipe with a damp cloth. You can use a dab of washing-up liquid to remove stubborn stains.
Clean off all trace of the washing-up liquid, and check it’s dry before refitting.
brush roller
8 String and the like may wind round the brush roller. Upend the cleaner, and snip any string,
etc. carefully with scissors. Take care not to cut the bristles.
turbo brush
9 Threads and hair may block the turbine.
10 Gently prise the sides of the turbo brush apart with your fingers, to release the holes from the
tabs in the body of the brush, and lift the top forwards.
11 Remove any threads from the belt or turbine.
12 Engage the front of the top part with the front of the bottom part, then push gently down to
engage the tabs in the holes.
blockages
No matter how careful you are, sooner or later you’re going to block the cleaner.
Don’t worry, we thought of that, we’ve fitted the motor with a temperature cut-out. A blockage
will trigger the cut-out , and the motor will stop.
don’t panic!
If the motor cuts out while you’re vacuuming, don’t panic, it’s not the end of the world, you’ve
probably just blocked it up.
13 Switch off, unplug, and leave the cleaner for half an hour to cool down fully. This’ll also reset
the cut-out.
14 Spread a newspaper on the floor, you’re going to make a mess.
suction blocked
15 If you’re using one of the tools, remove and check it first.
16 Remove and check the hose.
17 Check the bin, bin lid, HEPA filter, and mesh filter.
18Check the base tube – this runs down to the brush roller. Don’t use anything sharp. The blunt
end of a ball-point pen will do nicely.
19 If the blockage isn’t clear by now, try again, as there’s nowhere left to check.
20 Still not clear? – Ring the help line (back page).
