To check for blockages in the main body of the machine, remove the bin 
following the instructions in the Cleaning your bin section and remove the 
blockage.
If you cannot clear an obstruction, you may need to remove the brush bars.
Disconnect your machine from the charger before looking for blockages. 
Be careful not to touch the trigger and be aware of sharp objects.
Leave your machine to cool down before looking for blockages.
Don't use your machine when looking for blockages as this could cause 
injury.
Clearing blockages
Remove the bin and check for blockages in the main body of your machine.
Make sure any blockages are completely cleared and all parts are fitted 
before using your machine. 
If your machine detects a blockage, the motor will pulse and you won’t be 
able to use your machine until the blockage has been cleared.
If you try to use your machine when the motor is pulsing, it will automatically 
cut out.
Refit all parts securely before using your machine.
Clearing blockages isn't covered by your guarantee.
With the bin removed, 
check for blockages, paying 
particular attention to the air 
inlet, located at on the right–
hand side of the machine just 
below the point where the bin 
joins the main body of the 
machine.
With the wand 
removed from the 
machine, check for 
blockages at both ends 
of the wand.
Turn the cleaner 
head over to check 
for obstructions on 
the brush bar and air 
inlet.
