My Dreame Vacuum Turns Off Suddenly

Common Signs:

  • The vacuum shuts off without warning, sometimes after just a few minutes.

  • It won’t restart immediately.

Why This Happens:

  • Overheating: Usually caused by poor airflow or a clogged system.

  • Blockage: A jammed brush or hose can trigger an automatic safety shutdown.

  • Battery issues: A worn-out or faulty battery may no longer hold a charge properly.

  • Temporary software glitch: Less common, but sometimes the vacuum needs a reset.

How to Fix It:

  • Let the vacuum cool down for at least 30 minutes before trying to use it again.

  • Clean all filters, brushes, and air pathways to ensure proper ventilation.

  • If the vacuum keeps shutting off, consider replacing the battery (make sure it’s compatible).

  • Check for firmware updates via the Dreame app and install the latest version if available.
