Insert the filter cylinder case with the filter cylinder.
 The suction power is insufficient.

- Perhaps the batteries have not been inserted properly or are empty. Insert the batteries
properly or replace them.
- Remove the lid of the battery compartment (1) and insert two new AAA 1.5-volt batteries (2).
Make sure that the - and + poles point in the right direction. Reattach the lid of the battery
compartment (3) (Fig. 14).
