Problem Solving Guide
Full bag or clog indicator light
The full bag indicator light is designed to show when the bag is full or when there is a clog in the vacuum.
The system measures airflow and alerts the user when airflow is significantly reduced— most commonly from full bags and clogs.
The light could also come on when
vacuuming fine powders such as flour orYellow Warning Light drywall dust. These materials can quickly
block the bag pores, significantly reducing airflow before the bag appears to be full. The vacuum bag should still be changed.
Your vacuum belt is covered with a lifetime warranty. Should the vacuum belt break, simply bring your vacuum or the broken belt to your Authorized Riccar Retailer for a free replacement.
Annual checkup reminder
To keep your vacuum in peak operating condition, it is recommended you bring your vacuum to your Authorized Riccar Retailer for an annual checkup. Your Retailer will conduct a comprehensive examination to ensure your vacuum is in top operating condition.

Jammed brushroll
If an object, such as a throw rug or article of clothing is ever picked up into your vacuum, the vacuum will sense this “jammed brushroll” condition and turn off the brushroll. When this happens, the “brushroll warning” light on the top of the nozzle will light up in red.
• Turn off the vacuum and remove the cause of the jam. Turn vacuum back on. If the brushroll is free of any object and the “brushroll warning” light is still lit, it’s likely the clogged condition is located in the vacuum motor fan. If so, please take your Brilliance to a Authorized Riccar Retailer
for service.
