Follow these steps if you're experiencing low/ no suction

  1. Let's start by making sure your dirt cup is properly seated in the unit and there are no gaps. 
  2. Empty your dirt cup by pressing the release button on the lid and rocking the cup out of the unit, then unlock the latch at the bottom to empty the tank.

  3. After emptying the dirt cup, remove the lid and the cyclonic filter (black filter basket inside the tank) and clean out any debris and dust. Once it's clean replace the filter by lining up the notches with the dirt cup, then replace the lid and lock it properly.
  4. Once you have removed and emptied the dirt cup, you should remove the rinseable filter located underneath the tank's lid. You can remove the filter by twisting open the lid and unlocking the filter.
  5. If you are currently cleaning, tap your filter until clean then replace it in the unit, otherwise rinse the filter under water until it's clear and squeeze it to remove excess water. Allow 24 hours to dry then replace it in the unit.

  9. Remember to check your brush roll and the airpath inside your nozzle for any clogs or obstructions.

CAUTION: Do not replace any of the filters if they are damp.
