General Questions

How do I assemble the vacuum?

Slide the wand onto the neck of the floor nozzle until it clicks into place.

Align the hand vacuum nozzle opening with the top of the wand and slide the hand vac on until it clicks into place.


For proper operation, ensure all parts are firmly clicked into place.

How do I clean above floors with or without accessories?

To clean with the hand vacuum, detach it from the wand. Press the release buttons on both sides of the handle and lift the hand vac off the wand.

For more cleaning reach, leave the hand vacuum attached to the wand, and detach the wand from the floor nozzle. Press the nozzle release button on the bottom of the wand, then gently pull up on the hand vac to remove the nozzle.

Attach an accessory to the nozzle opening on the hand vacuum or the wand opening and begin cleaning. To detach accessories, use the one-touch release buttons, or the nozzle release button.

How do I store my vacuum?

Wandvac System technology allows you to store this vacuum in an upright position, or a compact, side-by-side position.

-Place the unit on the charging dock, with the hook on the back of the wand hanging on the charging post.
-Make sure the contacts on the wand are aligned with the contacts on the charging post.
-Another option is side-by-side storage and charging. Detach the hand vacuum from the wand, then slide the hand vacuum nozzle opening over the post on the storage arm.
-A third option is to plug the charging port directly into the hand vacuum. Unplug the cord from your charging dock and connect it to the port in the hand vac nozzle.

How long does it take to fully charge the battery?

The battery should take approximately 3.5 hours to reach a full charge.

What is the runtime of the battery on a full charge?

That battery runtime is affected by the type of cleaning the vacuum is used for. Vacuuming on high pile carpet while using Boost will reduce battery runtime quicker than vacuuming bare floors.

Hand Vac – extended  - 17 Minutes
Hand Vac – boost  - 8 Minutes              
Bare Floor – extended  -  12 Minutes    
Bare Floor – boost  - 8 Minutes


 

Cleaning and Maintenance

How do I can the filters and how often?

Filters may need to be cleaned if the vacuum stops picking up dirt, if airflow is restricted, or if you notice lighter or no suction. For optimal performance, clean filters regularly. Between cleanings, lightly tap filters over a trash receptacle to remove dust and debris as needed.

Rinse the fabric filter once monthly, or as needed.
-To access the fabric filter, first eject the dust cup, then press the filter release latch to remove the filter housing.

How do I empty the dust cup and how often?

How do I maintain the brushroll?

To clear hair wrap from the self-cleaning brushroll, turn the vacuum on and try cleaning in place on a carpet or area rug for 2 minutes.
