TROUBLE SHOOTING

 

 

CLEANING THE HOSE AND NOZZLE

Tubes And Hose

Use a flexible hose or similar item to clear the tube and the hose. It is sometimes possible to clear the blockage in the hose by “massaging” it. However, be careful in case the obstruction has been caused by glass or needles caught inside the hose.

Note: the warranty does not cover any damage to hoses caused by cleaning them.

Cleaning The Floor Nozzle

It is recommended to frequently clean the dual purpose floor nozzle, this will avoid the reduction of suction and prevents the lever for changing from hard floors to soft floors being difficult to activate. The easiest way to clean the nozzle is by connecting the hose to the vacuum cleaner and use the hose bent end handle.

The vacuum cleaner does not start

1.Check that the power cord is connected to the mains power outlet.

2.Check that the plug and power cord are not damaged.

3.Check for a faulty / blown fuse or that the circuit breaker has not been switched off.

The vacuum cleaner stops

1.Check whether the dust bag is full, if so empty it.

2.Is the nozzle tube or hose blocked?

3.Are the filters blocked?

Water has entered the vacuum cleaner

It will be necessary for the Fan Unit / Motor to be checked and if required replaced by an Authorised Electrolux service centre.

Damage to the Fan Unit / Motor caused by penetration of water is not covered by warranty.
