cleAninG And MAintenAnce - changing the dust bag
1. Change the dust bag immediately once the ‘dust bag full’ indicator turns red, see Figure 7.
It is possible that the indicator turns red whilst the dust bag is not yet full. If so, then the nozzle, hose or
tubes may be blocked. These will then need to be cleaned.
2. Open the cover by pulling the cover release (dust bag) upwards. Remove the dust bag from the holder,
and dispose of it in a dustbin.
3. Fit a new dust bag in the holder and press into
position.
4. Close the cover, and press until it clicks into
place.
Make sure that the dust bag does not become
pinched by the cover. This could damage the
appliance and/or the dust bag.

Dust bags for this vacuum cleaner are available from every major hardware store, with a statement
of the type number Bestron D00013/D0013S
