How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Immediately switch OFF the vacuum, remove the battery, and allow the unit to cool. Do not continue using it until inspected.

  • Inspect floor head: Remove the motorized floor head and check for jammed brushroll or melted plastic. Clear any obstructions.
  • Check filters and airflow: Clean filters and ensure all air paths are clear to prevent overheating.
  • Smell source: Determine whether the smell comes from the floor head or main body. This helps identify whether the brush motor or main motor is affected.
  • Replace damaged parts: If you see scorch marks, melted plastic, or the smell persists on next use, replace the affected motorized floor head or main motor assembly and inspect the PCB for damage.
