5. Operating Instructions
Learn how to effectively use your Emerio vacuum cleaner for various cleaning tasks.
5.1 Powering On and Off
- Plug In: Extend the power cord from the rear of the unit and plug it into a suitable electrical outlet. The cord has a maximum length of 4.5 meters.
- Power On: Press the power button (usually a large foot pedal on the main unit) to start the vacuum cleaner.
- Power Off: Press the power button again to turn off the vacuum cleaner.
- Cord Rewind: After use, unplug the vacuum cleaner. Press the cord rewind foot pedal to automatically retract the power cord into the unit.
5.2 Adjusting Suction Power
The suction power of the high-performance nozzle can be regulated. Look for a speed setting or air flow control on the handle of the flexible hose or on the main unit. Adjust this control to suit the surface you are cleaning (e.g., lower suction for delicate fabrics, higher for hard floors).
5.3 Cleaning Different Surfaces
- Hard Floors: Use the high-performance floor nozzle. For optimal results, ensure the brush setting on the nozzle is engaged (if applicable) to prevent scratching and improve dust collection.
- Carpeted Floors: Use the high-performance floor nozzle. Adjust the nozzle setting for carpets (if applicable) to allow for better airflow and deeper cleaning.
- Upholstery and Curtains: Use the combination joint brush (dusting brush attachment). Reduce suction power if necessary to avoid damaging delicate fabrics.
- Crevices and Corners: Use the combination joint brush (crevice tool attachment) for narrow spaces and edges.

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your vacuum cleaner.
6.1 Replacing the Dust Bag
The vacuum cleaner uses 2.0-liter dust bags, compatible with Swirl Y05 type bags. Replace the dust bag when the dust bag full indicator (if present) illuminates, or when suction power noticeably decreases.
- Ensure the vacuum cleaner is unplugged from the power outlet.
- Open the dust bag compartment cover.
- Carefully remove the full dust bag from its holder. Dispose of it hygienically.
- Insert a new compatible dust bag into the holder, ensuring it is fully seated and the opening aligns with the suction inlet.
- Close the dust bag compartment cover until it latches securely.
6.2 Cleaning Filters
Your vacuum cleaner is equipped with a HEPA filter and potentially a motor protection filter. Refer to the diagrams inside the vacuum cleaner for exact locations.
- HEPA Filter: This filter is typically located at the exhaust of the vacuum cleaner. It should be checked and cleaned or replaced every 6-12 months, or more frequently with heavy use. Tap out loose dirt over a waste bin. If washable, rinse under cold running water and allow to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Motor Protection Filter: This filter is usually located near the dust bag compartment, protecting the motor from fine dust. Check and clean this filter regularly (e.g., every 3-6 months) by tapping out dirt. If washable, follow the same procedure as for the HEPA filter.
Important: Always ensure filters are completely dry before reinserting them into the vacuum cleaner. Operating the vacuum with wet filters can cause damage.
6.3 Cleaning the Nozzles and Attachments
Periodically check the floor nozzle and other attachments for blockages, tangled hair, or debris. Remove any obstructions to maintain effective suction.
7. Troubleshooting
