How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery before accessing internal Bluetooth components.

  • 1. Check remote battery: Replace the coin cell or internal battery in the Festool Bluetooth remote or tool module.
  • 2. Re-pair devices: Follow the Festool pairing procedure to clear old pairings and re-pair the remote or tool module with the vacuum.
  • 3. Reduce distance and interference: Operate within the recommended range and avoid large metal obstacles between devices.
  • 4. Test receiver: If pairing fails or the remote still does not start the vacuum, the Bluetooth receiver module in the vacuum may be defective and should be replaced.
