Maintenance
The following sections are concerned with proper maintenance of
the cleaner. Familiarize yourself with these home maintenance tasks
and keep this owner’s manual in a convenient place where you can
refer to it when needed. Proper use and care of your cleaner will
ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.
The bag
When to replace
Check bag from time to time. It is recommended that you change
the bag when it is filled to the dotted line. If more dirt than this
accumulates, your cleaner may not operate effectively.
NOTE: Check and change bag frequently when using cleaner on
new carpet due to rapid accumulation of carpet fluff. The check
bag indicator (some models only), may not register if the bag is
full of fluff from new carpet.

The tools are attached to the
hose or the wand in the same
manner.
If your cleaner was originally equipped with a micro filtration bag, it
is important to use only Genuine HOOVER® Micro Filtration Type
Z disposable bags in order to assure that the original cleaning
effectiveness is maintained.
What to buy
Where to buy
Bags may be purchased from your local Authorized Hoover Dealer
(Depot) or from a Hoover Factory Service Center or use the mail
order form packed with your cleaner. When ordering bags, be
sure to give the model number of your cleaner.
CAUTION: Very fine materials, such as face powder, corn-
starch, fireplace ashes or fireplace soot, may seal the paper bag
and may cause it to burst even though it is only partially full of
dirt. When cleaner is used to remove material of this nature,
change bag often.

How to attach tool
cover
The tool cover is designed with
a “break-away” feature which
allows it to snap off if it is
pushed open too far. To re-
attach, align hinges of cover
with slots on front of tool stor-
age area; press cover back into
place.
To clean the hose, wipe off dirt with a cloth dampened in a liquid
detergent. Rinse with a damp cloth. Cleaning tools may be washed
in warm water with a detergent. Rinse and air dry before using.
How to clean tools
CAUTION: Agitator continues to rotate while cleaner handle is
in the upright position. Avoid tipping cleaner or setting it on
furniture, fringed area rugs, or carpeted stairs during tool use.
Avoid leaving the cleaner in one place for an extended period of
time particularly on thick carpet.
Use tools with cleaner handle
in upright position.
It is important that the tools and
wands are twisted to ensure a
firm connection.
Push tool firmly onto hose; twist
tool slightly to tighten or loosen
connection.
