working as they should.
Solid Red: There is a jam in the brushroll
area. Turn off the vacuum and unplug it, then
remove any blockages in the nozzle.
Flashing Green: The vacuum is operating in
an environment that is either too hot or too
cold. This vacuum will only function properly
in temperatures ranging from 32°F (0°C) to

the room temperature. Once the temperature
has reached the operating range, turn the
vacuum back on.
Flashing Red: The motorized floor nozzle is
overheating. Turn off the vacuum, unplug it,
and remove any blockages. Let the vacuum
cool down for at least 60 minutes before
