To empty dust and debris, hold the dust cup over the bin, then slide the CleanTouch Dirt Ejector slider forward.
To clean the interior of the dust cup, rinse it with water. Place it on its side with the lid open to air-dry for at least 24 hours before reinstalling.

CLEANING THE FILTERS
Regularly rinse and reinstall the filters to maintain your vacuum's suction power.
To clean filters, rinse them with water only. Allow all filters to air-dry completely before reinstalling to prevent liquid from being drawn into electric parts.
Clean the pre-motor filters at least once a month and post-motor filter at least once a year. Tap off loose dirt between washes when needed. More frequent cleaning may sometimes be necessary with heavy use.

DO NOT use soap when cleaning the filters. Use water only. The vacuum will not have suction if the post-motor filter is not installed. Ensure that all filters are installed before using.

CLEANING THE FILTERS - Step 1
Press the dust cup release button and remove the dust cup. Pull the foam and felt filters out of the back of the dust cup.

CLEANING THE FILTERS - Step 2
Remove the dust cup. Pull the post-motor filter out of the handheld vacuum.

Post-Motor Filter

FLOOR NOZZLE
If any hair is wrapped around the brushroll, continue cleaning using the Carpet setting on a bare floor surface, a low-pile carpet, or a small area rug. If some fibres remain wrapped around the brushroll after continued use, carefully remove them. If you run over a hard or sharp object or notice a noise change while vacuuming, check for blockages by following the steps under 'Checking for Blockages in the Floor Nozzle' on the bottom right of this page.

CLEANING SOFT ROLLER

1 To remove Soft Roller from nozzle, pull the Soft Roller out by the tab.
Tap loose debris off the Soft Roller. Use a dry towel to wipe the Soft Roller clean and to remove any debris caught in the teeth behind the Soft Roller.
Hand wash the Soft Roller as needed. Use only water, and let air-dry completely, which should take at least 24 hours.
Reinsert the Soft Roller.

CHECKING FOR BLOCKAGES
Checking for Blockages in the Handheld Vacuum:

Turn off vacuum.
Remove the handheld vacuum from the wand.
Check all intake openings on the dust cup and remove any debris or blockage.

Checking for Blockages in the Wand:

Turn off vacuum.
Remove the handheld vacuum and floor nozzle.
Check intake openings for blockages and debris.
Clear away debris and blockages.

MultiFLEX^® Wand:

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

To reduce the risk of shock and unintended operation, turn off power and remove the Lithium ION Power Pack battery before servicing.

Vacuum is not picking up debris. No suction or light suction. Nozzle light is red.
(Refer to Checking for Blockages section for more information.)

Check filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow instructions for rinsing and completely air-drying the filters before reinserting in the vacuum.
Dust cup may be full; empty dust cup.
Check floor nozzle for blockages; clear blockages if required.
Remove any string, carpet fibres, or hair that may be wrapped around the brushroll.
Check connection between handheld vacuum and wand for blockages; clear blockages if required. If the issue persists, please contact Customer Service.
Check clog access in wand for any blockages and clear any debris.

Vacuum lifts area rugs

Make sure you are not engaging Boost mode as this can be too much suction for lighter rugs. Take care when vacuuming area rugs or rugs with delicately sewn edges.
Turn off the unit to disengage the brushroll and restart with the power/selector switch.

Brushrolls do not spin

Immediately turn off the vacuum. Remove any blockages before turning the vacuum back on. Make sure the handheld vacuum is tilted back far enough for the brushrolls to engage. If the brushrolls still do not spin, please contact Customer Service.
If the floor nozzle has headlights and they are not illuminated, there is a connection issue between the handheld vacuum, wand, and nozzle. Try disconnecting and reattaching the pieces. If the headlights still do not illuminate, please contact Customer Service.

Vacuum turns off on its own

There are several possible reasons for the vacuum turning off on its own, including blockages, battery issues, and overheating. If vacuum turns off on its own, perform the following steps:

Turn on the vacuum and check the battery indicator lights located on the handheld vacuum. If recharging is needed, make sure power is turned off before connecting to the charger.
Empty dust cup and clean filters (see Emptying the Dust Cup and Cleaning the Filters section).
Check wand, accessories, and inlet openings and remove any blockages.
Allow unit and battery to cool for at least 45 minutes, until they return to room temperature.
Press power button to restart the vacuum.
NOTE: If vacuum still does not operate properly, contact Customer Service at AUS 02 8801 7666 or NZ 0800 112 660
