a) If the dust bag change indicator is completely yellow when
the floor tool is lifted from the floor and the highest suction
power is selected, the dust bag must be changed, even if it
is not yet full. In this case it is essential to change the dust
bag due to the type of material it contains.
First check that the nozzle, suction pipe and flexible hose
are not blocked, as this would also lead to the dust bag
change indicator being triggered.
b) The handle can easily be detached from the hose to remove
blockages.
