Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery and empty the container before working on the flap.
- Clean hinge and seal: Remove all dust and debris from the flap hinge and sealing surfaces. Wipe with a dry cloth.
- Inspect latch hook: Check the small plastic hook or catch that holds the flap closed. If cracked or worn, it may not hold under suction.
- Check for warping: Ensure the flap aligns evenly with the container. Warped plastic may prevent proper sealing.
- Replace container: If the latch or flap is damaged, replace the entire dust container assembly.
