Brush Roll
The brush roll turns to sweep and comb the carpet nap. Keep
the brush roll free from hair and threads so it will continue
cleaning. When the bristles of the brush roll no longer touch
a piece of cardboard held across the bottom plate, the brush
roll is ineffective because the bristles no longer touch the
carpet nap. To maintain the most effective cleaning, install a
new brush roll.

HOW TO MAINTAIN
The paper bag and filters play a very important role in the
efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the paper
bag is to trap dirt and at the same time the paper must be
porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the paper bag
or filters become clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner
and no cleaning takes place regardless of how powerful the
unit. To keep the cleaner operating at maximum efficiency,
change the dust bag frequently and clean the filters as
necessary.
Some fine particles can restrict airflow very quickly and will
decrease performance even before the bag appears to be
full. When vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, plaster
dust, or similar fine substances, clean the bag and filters
more often.
Bare Floor Brush: (on some models) For any type
of hard surface floor.
Turbo Brush: (on some models) For upholstery
and for stairs.

Empty Bag
Bag Change Indicator
The bag change indicator bar fills as the airflow through the
bag decreases. Certain types of fine particles like powder,
plaster dust, or carpet fibers can restrict airflow very quickly
and will decrease performance even before the bag appears
to be full. When the warning appears, change the disposable
dust bag to restore maximum performance. If a clean dust
bag does not restore maximum performance, clean the filters
and check the hose and wands for obstructions.
