Replacement
Dustbag
Tip: We advise you to clean the motor protection filter every time you replace the dustbag (see chapter
'Cleaning').
Always unplug the appliance before you replace the dustbag.
Before replacing the dustbag
In some cases, the dustbag-full indicator can indicate that the dustbag is full, even though it is not.
This may occur if the pores of the dustbag are clogged (e.g. when you have vacuumed ashes, fine
sand, lime, cement dust and similar substances) or if something is blocking the nozzle, tube and/or
hose. If the pores of the dustbag are clogged, you have to replace the dustbag, even if it is not full
yet. If the dustbag is not clogged but not full either, something is blocking the nozzle, tube and/or
hose. In this case, do not replace the dustbag but remove the obstruction.
