Possible Causes

Worn or missing bristles, Brushroll not contacting the carpet properly, Incorrect height for the carpet, Weak brushroll motor.

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off and remove the battery before inspecting the nozzle.

  • Inspect bristles: Check if the bristles are worn down, uneven, or missing. They should extend sufficiently to contact carpet fibers.
  • Clean brushroll: Remove hair and debris that may reduce bristle effectiveness.
  • Check nozzle wheels: Ensure the wheels are not worn or stuck, as this can change the brush height.
  • Replace brushroll: If the bristles are significantly worn, install a new, genuine Electrolux brushroll designed for your model.
