Check the wand and brush head for blockages and ensure the dust canister is not overfilled.
Brush head LEDs are on but the brush won't spin
Clear any hair or debris wrapped around the brush roll that may be preventing it from rotating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your U10, ensure the battery is fully charged before its first use. Setup involves snapping the wand into the main motor unit and attaching the desired floor tool. Maintenance is straightforward: after every few sessions, ensure the brush roll is free of hair or tangled fibers to maintain optimal rotation. It is recommended to empty the dust container once it reaches the 'Max' fill line to keep suction pressure high. Periodically inspect the filters; if they appear dusty, tap them against a bin or rinse with water (ensure they are completely dry before re-inserting) to keep the airflow unrestricted.
