Safety Information

Before operating the appliance, please read this manual thoroughly and retain it for your reference. It is designed for indoor use only.

Handling the Plug

Hold the plug when rewinding onto the cord reel. Do not allow the plug to whip when rewinding to avoid damage.

Cleaning the Dust Pack

If suction is reduced or the vacuum overheats, clean the dust pack. The lamp turns red when cleaning is needed.

Cord Care

When removing the plug, grasp the plug, not the cord. If the cord does not rewind fully, pull it out 2-3m and push the cord rewind button.

Safety Precautions

Do not use the vacuum without the dirt cup and/or filters in place, or in spaces with flammable or toxic materials.

Maintenance

Check out our tips to prevent many common issues and extend the life of your Samsung Vacuum Cleaner.

Regularly Clean the Filters

To ensure optimal performance, regularly clean the HEPA filter and the outlet filter. If the filters are clogged and cannot be cleaned adequately, replace them with new ones. This helps maintain strong suction power and prevents overheating.

Empty the Dust Bin Frequently

Once the dust reaches the full mark, empty the dust bin to prevent blockages and maintain suction power. Ensure the dust bin is properly reassembled by aligning the dust pack cover correctly and listening for a 'click' sound when returning it to the vacuum.

Inspect and Clean the Rotating Floor Brush

Regularly check the rotating floor brush for strings, hair, and carpet fibers, which can cause tangling and reduce effectiveness. Also, inspect the drive belt for wear or damage and replace it if necessary.

Check for Blockages

If you notice reduced suction or overheating, check the hose, air passageway, and inlet for obstructions. Remove any debris to ensure smooth operation.

Handle with Care

When rewinding the power cord, hold the plug to prevent it from whipping. Avoid using the vacuum cleaner to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, or in areas where these substances may be present.
