Dust bag indicator
When the cleaner is switched on, if the
dust bag condition indicator is continuously
showing red (or if the suction is reduced) the
bag must be replaced and the filters
cleaned.
If it is still showing red after emptying the
dust bag and cleaning the filters, check to
see if the hose is blocked.

1 Unplug the power cable from the socket.

lever at the top.

cardboard tab and pull towards you.
Remove carefully to avoid dust/dirt
spilling from the dust bag and dispose.

top tab at the crease. Holding the
cardboard tab, push the bag over the
opening of the dirt discharge tube until it
is seated against the rear of the
enclosure.

dust bag is correctly fitted due to the
safety bag interlock. Í Always check

6 Once the new dust bag is in place,
replace the front panel by aligning the
bottom locking tabs with the slots in the
body, close cover slowly allowing the
front panel to snap in place. The latch will
self lock.
Cleaning the pre-motor filter
Everytime a new bag is fitted, the filter
should be taken out and cleaned. Failure to
clean the filter will reduce suction and will
damage the motor if used for prolonged
periods. This may invalidate the guarantee. If
the filter becomes damaged it must be
replaced.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the cleaner
without the filter in place.
1 Remove the front cover of the cleaner.
2 The pre-motor filter is located below the
bag.
3 To remove the filter, slide the holder out of
the machine.
4 Remove the filter from the holder by
unclipping. To clean shake vigorously
over a dustbin.
* The pre-motor filter may also be washed
in warm water.
* Do not use detergents. The filter must be
completely dry before refitting. Allow the
filter to dry naturally, do not overheat.
5 Replace front cover.
