Vacuum emits an unpleasant musty or dusty odor during use.

Safety first: Turn OFF and remove the battery before cleaning. Wear a dust mask if you are sensitive to dust.

• 1. Deep clean dust bin: Remove the bin and empty it. Wash the bin and cyclone parts with mild soap and water if TCL allows, then dry completely.
• 2. Clean or replace filters: Tap out dust from filters. Wash if permitted and let them dry for 24 hours. Replace heavily soiled or smelly filters.
• 3. Check for wet debris: Avoid vacuuming wet materials. If you did, clean and dry the bin and filters thoroughly.
• 4. Ventilate: After cleaning, run the vacuum briefly in a well‑ventilated area to clear residual odor.

Maintenance: Regularly cleaning the bin and replacing filters as recommended by TCL will prevent odors.
