TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
TROUBLESHOOTING
IF YOUR VAX SUDDENLY STOPS :
The fuse may have blown. Disconnect your VAX from
the mains, empty the machine and clear any
blockages. Replace the 13 amp fuse and try again.
If it still does not work, contact your nearest
service agent.
IF YOUR VAX DOES NOT SUCK UP PROPERLY :
●
Check to see if the dust bag is full.
●
Ensure there are no blockages in the hose.
●
Clean/change the filters. See pages 12/ 13/ 14.
IF YOUR VAX DOES NOT WASH PROPERLY:
●
Check to see if the dirty water bucket is full. If
it is, empty it. See page 8, picture no. 1.
●
Make sure the solution tube is at the bottom of
the water/washing solution.
See page 5, picture no. 3.
●
Ensure that the connector on the end of the
water delivery tube is fitted properly.
See page 6, picture no. 8.
●
As your VAX is very powerful, you may find that
the dust bag fills up quickly the first time that
you use your VAX.
●
WHEN WASHING CARPETS, ALWAYS TEST FOR
COLOUR FASTNESS, WITH SOME UNDILUTED
CLEANER ON A HIDDEN AREA.
●
When washing deep pile carpets, move the washing
tool in the same direction as the pile lays.
●
Start from the furthest corner of the room and
work backwards towards the door.
●
If you are washing very dirty carpets, you may
have to wash them several times over a period of
time to bring the dirt to the surface.
●
Metal or wooden furniture legs may mark a wet
carpet, wait until the carpet is dry before replacing
furniture or cover legs with aluminium foil.
●
Do not allow children or animals onto your
carpet until it has had time to dry.
