particles. Use only BISSELL replacement filters
in your Zing Bagged canister vacuum.

vacuum from electrical outlet.

hose cuff counterclockwise.
3. To locate the pre-motor filter, open the dust

the dust bag from the dust bag folder.
4. Locate the circular pre-motor filter in the dust
bag compartment. To remove the pre-motor

the filter in-place during use. Do not remove
the pre-motor filter without first removing the
pre-motor filter clip.

remove the circular pre-motor filter and clean
by hand washing in warm water. A mild

bag compartment. With the filter in-place,
insert the pre-motor filter clip in the hole
located in the center of the filter. Replace
the vacuum bag per the instructions on

door and reconnect the flex hose.

vent underneath the Variable Suction Power
Control knob and next to the power switch
and cord rewind button. Remove the vent
grate by pushing up on the grooves at the
bottom of the grate.
8. With the vent grate removed, locate the
post-motor foam filter attached to the grate.
Remove the foam filter and clean by hand
washing in warm water. A mild detergent
