Possible Causes

Blocked nozzle suction slot, Air leak at nozzle gasket, Clogged recovery path, Worn motor reducing suction

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug before cleaning the nozzle.

  • Clean nozzle: Remove the floor nozzle and rinse the suction slot under warm water. Use a soft brush to remove lint and hair.
  • Check gasket: Inspect the nozzle-to-body gasket for damage. Replace if flattened or torn.
  • Empty tank and filters: Ensure the recovery tank is not full and that filters are clean to maintain airflow.
  • Multiple passes: Use additional dry passes (suction only, no spray) to extract more water. If suction remains weak, the motor may be worn and require replacement.
