Fault
The LED display lights up yellow when
the cordless vacuum cleaner is on.
The LED display on the cordless
vacuum cleaner flashes red.
The charging process takes too long
or the cordless vacuum cleaner does
not start after a short charge.
Transport mode cannot be switched
on.
The filter area on the cordless vacuum
cleaner is damp; moisture has got in.
Possible cause and solutions
The premium filter bag may be full.
•
Insert a new premium filter bag as described in chapter
"5.2.1 Replacing the Kobold FP100
Premium Filter Bag" on page 30.
The carpet may be too dense.
•
Try vacuuming a different floor and check the LED dis-
play again.
•
Try vacuuming on a lower suction power level.
The suction channels may be blocked.
•
Check and clean the suction channels.
•
Contact your Vorwerk Customer Service Centre (see
chapter "9 Service" on page 44).
High temperatures can slow down the charging process.
•
Do not charge the device or the individual battery pack
(when removed from the cordless vacuum cleaner) in
the sun.
Charging may take longer after intensive use of the cord-
less vacuum cleaner or at high temperatures. The charging
process can be accelerated by removing the battery pack
from the device and charging it directly on the AC charger.
Your cordless vacuum cleaner may already be connected
to the power supply and fully charged. If this is the case,
the LEDs will no longer be lit.
•
Disconnect your cordless vacuum cleaner from the pow-
er supply.
•
Then proceed as described in chapter "3.6 Moving the
Kobold VB100 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner" on page 26.
Dampness in the filter area can damage the device.
•
Should the filter area be damp, make sure to dry it be-
fore using the
device any further.
•
Replace the Kobold FP100 Premium Filter Bag and the
motor protection filter of the Kobold VB100.
