This article contains all the steps necessary to fix suction issues with your vacuum
TIP: If you are experiencing lower suction or if your vacuum is hard to push, try adjusting the nozzle height to the proper setting for your floor type.
Follow these steps if you're experiencing low/ no suction:
- Let's start by making sure your dirt cup is properly seated in the unit and there are no gaps.
- Empty your dirt cup by pressing the release button on the lid and rocking the cup out, once removed open the trap door by pressing the release mechanism.
- Once you have removed and emptied the dirt cup, you should remove the rinseable filter located underneath the tank in the unit. You can remove the filter by pulling it up and out.
- 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.
- After cleaning the rinseable filter, tilt the unit back and release the latch to remove the exhaust filter located between the nozzle and the dirt cup.
- Tap the filter until clean or wipe down any remaining dust with a dry cloth. Do not rinse!!
- Lastly, check your hose airpath and extension tools for any clogs. Make sure your vacuum is upright and press the hose release button, inspect your hose and clear out any clogs, then replace it back in the unit.
CAUTION: Do not replace any of the filters if they are damp
