When to replace 

Check the bag when the “CHECK BAG”
indicator shows red.  When bag is filled
with dirt, the cleaner will not operate effi-
ciently.  Discard used bag.

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 the cleaner is used to
remove material of this nature,
change the bag often.
