Vacuum leaves fine dust on hard floors even after multiple passes

Possible Causes
Incorrect nozzle for hard floors, Worn or missing soft roller, Gaps between nozzle and floor, Low suction due to partial blockage
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery before changing accessories.
- 1. Use correct nozzle: Ensure you are using the Panasonic soft roller or hard floor nozzle recommended for your model, not a carpet‑only head.
- 2. Inspect soft roller: Check for wear, missing sections, or heavy contamination. Clean with a dry cloth and remove hair.
- 3. Check nozzle seal to floor: Inspect the front and side squeegee strips. If they are damaged or missing, fine dust can escape.
- 4. Verify suction strength: Test suction at the wand end. If weak, clean filters and check for blockages.
- 5. Replace worn roller or nozzle: If the soft roller is worn or the nozzle housing is damaged, replace with a genuine Panasonic hard floor nozzle assembly.
