The filter bag
When to replace
Check bag from time to time. It is
recommended that you change the
paper bag when dirt reaches the dotted
line. If more dirt than this accumulates,
your cleaner may not operate effectively.
CAUTION: Very fine materials, such as
face powder, cornstarch, 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.
