How often should I clean the filter?

How do I know when the battery is low?

Troubleshooting
Vacuum will not turn on or is not charging.
Ensure the charging adapter is securely plugged into a working wall outlet and fully inserted into the vacuum's charging port. Check for any visible damage to the charging cable or adapter. Allow sufficient time for the battery to charge.
Poor suction or debris is not being picked up effectively.
Check if the dust cup is full and empty it. Ensure the washable filter is clean and completely dry before reinserting. Look for any blockages in the nozzle, dust cup, or accessories, and clear them carefully. Ensure accessories are correctly attached.
Battery life seems shorter than expected.
Confirm the vacuum has been fully charged. Battery run-time can vary slightly based on usage (e.g., continuous use of the Motorised Pet Tool might consume power faster). Ensure the filter is clean, as a dirty filter can make the motor work harder, draining the battery faster.
Dust cup will not close properly after emptying.
Check for any debris or obstructions around the hinge or latch mechanism of the dust cup. Ensure the dust cup is properly aligned before attempting to close it securely until it clicks into place. Make sure the filter is correctly seated inside.
