Dust bags are disposable items. They
must not be used several times because
clogged pores will reduce performance.
How to check:
• Put on the floor nozzle. All other nozzles
will affect the function of the dust bag
exchange indicator.
• Switch on the vacuum cleaner and set
the vacuum power control (if included)
to full cleaning power.
• Lift the floor nozzle a little off the floor. If
the dust bag exchange indicator now
shows that the dust bag is full, you need
to exchange the bag.
Important information on the function of
the dust bag exchange indicator
The function of the indicator is set for mixed
dust which mainly occurs in households:
dust, hairs, carpet fluffs, threads, sand etc.
However, if you take up a lot of fine dust
such as drilling dust, sand or possibly gyp-
sum or flour, the pores will get clogged. The
dust bag exchange indicator will display
„full“ in such a case, even though the dust
bag may not be completely full yet. The dust
bag must be exchanged in this case
because the cleaning performance will be
reduced due to the clogged pores.
However, if you take up a lot of hairs or fluffs
from carpet or wool etc., the dust bag
exchange indicator will react only after the
dust bag has been filled taut.
Press the unlock key and swing open the
lid of the dust compartment until it locks
into position.
Close filter bag by pulling the strap. This
serves to cleanly seal the full paper filter.
Lift out filter bridge using the carrying lever,
and dispose of paper filter, pulling out filter
bag by the cardboard disk.
Insert new paper filter into filter bridge (see
imprint on filter). Make sure that the air
intake opening of the paper filter is not
closed. Do not damage filter paper when
inserting filter! Close lid of dust compart-
ment.
IMPORTANT:
The filter lock (according to the set of com-
ponents included) prevents the lid of the
dust compartment from being closed with-
out a paper filter.
