Check Bag Indicator - Kenmore Elite 116.31150 Use & Care Manual

When the vacuum cleaner is running with
normal air flow, the light on the CHECK
BAG indicator is off.
NOTE: It is normal for the CHECK BAG
indicator to come on when using certain
attachments, due to reduced airflow
through attachment. No maintenance is
required.
The light comes on when:
• Bag is full. See CHANGING DUST BAG
(Page 16)
• The airflow is blocked. Check motor
safety filter and other possible clog
locations shown in REMOVING CLOGS.
(Pages 19-20)
• When using some attachments.
CAUTION
DO NOT use the hose when the vacuum
cleaner is in the use position.
Always return the vacuum cleaner to the
upright position before using the hose
and attachments.
1. Place the
vacuum cleaner in
the upright lock
position.
2. Remove the
hose from the
hose holder.
