What to Check First
- If the pre-filter and the large dust separator are not fully assembled, the internal parts may not align properly.
- If the dust bin is not assembled in the correct direction (with the lever visible), the charging terminals may not make contact.
- If you do not hear a click during assembly, the parts may not be fully locked in place.
- 1. Remove the pre-filter and large dust separator Turn the pre-filter and large dust separator as shown in the image and pull them down to remove them.
- 2. Remove the dust bin Hold the dust bin and turn it to the left to remove it.
- 3. Assemble the pre-filter and large dust separator Insert the crevice tool into the large dust separator and turn it clockwise until it clicks into place.
- 4. Assemble the dust bin Align the dust bin in the correct orientation and turn it counterclockwise until it clicks into place.
- If you do not hear a 'click' sound, the assembly is incomplete. Be sure to reassemble it before use.
- If the dust bin is facing the wrong direction, the lid may not close or the vacuum may not charge.
- Always check that the parts are assembled correctly before charging.
