How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning the floorhead.

  • Clean spray jets: Remove the floorhead and clean each spray nozzle with a pin or soft brush. Flush with warm water.
  • Inspect brushbar: Check for missing or heavily worn bristles. Replace the brushbar if bristles are uneven or flattened.
  • Clean nozzle edge: Wipe the suction nozzle edge and squeegee to remove any build-up that could drag dirt.
  • Overlap passes: When cleaning, overlap each pass slightly to avoid uncleaned strips between passes.
