Cleaning The Filters - LG VDS-ST1 Series Owner's Manual

22 MAINTENANCE
NOTE
• The dust bag door will not close without a dust
bag. Discard the dust bag and be sure to put a
new dust bag in place.
• Replace the dust bag every month to maintain
the dust emptying performance. The
replacement cycle may vary depending on the
environment, and may be especially short in
conditions with a lot of dust or pet hair.
• Replace the dust bag if it smells, even if it is not
full.
• The motor protection filter will eventually need
to be replaced. Contact an LG Electronics
customer service center.

Cleaning the Filters

Clean the motor protection filter and the exhaust
filter every 3 months or sooner if the dust
emptying function seems weaker.
• Clean the filters more frequently if the appliance
is used regularly or in areas with a lot of dust.
CAUTION
• Do not use the appliance without the exhaust
filter and the motor protection filter installed.
Doing so could result in product damage.
