Poor Pickup / Floor Head Performance
Vacuum leaves debris behind and does not pick up well from carpets or hard floors.

Possible Causes
Worn brush bristles, Incorrect floor setting, Blocked floor nozzle air channel, Damaged or missing floor head seal
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery before inspecting the floor head.
- Inspect brush bristles: If bristles are worn down or uneven, they may not agitate carpet effectively. Replace the brush roll.
- Check floor setting: Ensure any carpet/hard floor selector is set correctly for the surface.
- Clear nozzle: Look into the suction opening of the floor head and remove any obstructions.
- Inspect seals: Check the rubber strip or seal at the front/rear of the nozzle. Replace if torn or missing.
Restoring brush condition and nozzle airflow usually resolves poor pickup issues.
