Why is the suction performance inadequate on my Kärcher DS 5500?
- A
  Alexandra SummersJul 28, 2025
  If the suction performance of your Kärcher Vacuum Cleaner is inadequate, several factors could be responsible. Ensure the intermediate filter is correctly inserted and not dirty; clean or replace it if necessary. A dirty HEPA-Plus filter may also be the cause, so replace it if needed. Check for blockages in the accessory or deposits in the suction manifold and remove them. Verify the water container is correctly inserted and the false air slide on the handle is closed.

  If you notice the suction performance of your Kärcher Vacuum Cleaner decreasing, there might be a few reasons. Check that the baffle plate is correctly inserted. Also, too little or too much water in the water container can cause this, so check the MIN/MAX mark on the container. If the intermediate filter in the container cover is wet, wash and dry it, or replace it with a new filter.
