Replacing the dustbag

^

Press the release button for the dust
compartment lid and raise the lid as
far as it will go.

^

To remove the dustbag hold the bag
by the collar and pull it out of its
holder.

The dustbag has a closing flap which
closes automatically when the dustbag
is removed to prevent any dust
escaping.

^

Fit the new dustbag into the holder as
far as it will go. Leave it folded up
when you take it out of the box.

^

Close the dust compartment lid
securely, making sure it clicks into
position. Take care not to trap the
dustbag when doing so.

Warning: The lid will not close
without a dustbag in place, or if the
dustbag is incorrectly fitted. Do not
use force!
