Filter bag
When to replace
Check filter bag from time to time.
Change the filter bag when dirt reaches
the dotted line. If more dirt than this
accumulates, your cleaner will not oper-
ate effectively.
Note: All new carpet has loose fibers
which can fill the bag quickly while
vacuuming. This type of debris does
not activate the “Check Bag” indicator,
available on some models.
So, if you are using the cleaner on
new carpet, be sure to change the fil-
ter bag often, even if you have a
“Check Bag” indicator and it does not
show red.
CAUTION: Very fine materials, such
as face powder or cornstarch, may
seal the filter 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 filter bag often.
It is imperative that you use only gen-
uine HOOVER filter bags made by The
Hoover Company to assure your clean-
er operates at peak performance.
