Disposable Dust Bag and Filters

The disposable dust bag plays a very important role in
the efficiency of a vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the
paper bag is to trap dirt. As the bag traps dirt, it must also
be porous enough to allow air to pass on through. If the
paper bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the
cleaner and no cleaning can take place regardless of how
powerful the unit. Change the dust bag and check the
filters frequently. 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, powder,
plaster dust, or similar fine substances, the bag and filters
may require more frequent maintenance.

How To Replace Bags–Style RR
Filteraire

NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical

cord before changing dust bag. Never operate
the vacuum cleaner without the dust bag or
the filter.

NOTE: Style RR Filteraire bags must be used to

maintain HEPA grade filtration and prolong the
life of the HEPA filter.

To Remove Bag:

1.

Release front cover latch by lifting up. Pivot bag cover
away from cleaner and remove.

NOTE: Bag cover will not shut if paper bag is not

properly installed.
