PAPER BAG: REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM MOVING PARTS - UNPLUG BEFORE SERVICING.
NOTE: Unplug cleaner before changing paper bag. Cleaner must have paper bag in place at all times. You can
tell your bag needs replacing when you experience less suction or when the Full Bag Indicator changes to yellow or
red. Do not exceed marked fill line on paper bag. Different types of dirt may require bag replacement more often.
FULL BAG INDICATOR: When the Full Bag Indicator window changes to yellow or red, it may be time for a new
paper bag. Check the paper bag, and if full, replace as described below. If not, the cleaner may have a clogged dirt
passage (See "Trouble Shooting" Pg. 12).
