the vacuum cleaner and check it's assembled correctly, refi t ensuring it's locked
into place.

• The fi lter may be clogged, clean the fi lter. Go to 'Taking care of your machine'.
• The dirt container may be blocked, empty the dirt container. Go to 'Taking care
of your machine'.
• There may be a blockage in the hose/tube. Disconnect from the vacuum cleaner
and carefully remove any blockages. Go to 'Let's talk technical'.
• The plug may not be fully pushed into the electrical socket.
• Check the fuse in the plug if this needs replacing, always replace with a British

vacuum cleaner. Remove and empty the dirt container and check the hose
for blockages. Clean the fi lters and allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for
approximately 1 hour (if you have washed the fi lters you will need to wait
24 hours for the fi lters to fully dry before putting them back into the vacuum
cleaner).
