Replacing the Vacuum Bag and Filters
Replacing the Vacuum Bag
Change the vacuum bag when the full bag indicator
changes from green to red or when the suction power
is weak. The bag compartment will not close without a
bag in the vacuum or if the bag is not properly installed.
1. Open the bag compartment.
2. Pull the tab on the bag collar, which closes the
bag while removing it from the bag holder.
3. Remove and discard the used bag.
NOTE: The HEPA media bag cannot be reused.
4. Slide a new bag into the bag holder until it
clicks into place.
5. Close the bag compartment.
Replacing the Secondary Filter
1. Open the bag compartment and locate
the filter behind the vacuum bag. For
better access to the secondary filter,
remove the bag.
2. Pull the filter holder up.
3. Remove the used filter and replace it with
a new filter.
4. Slide the filter holder back into place and
replace the bag.
Replacing the HEPA Media Filter
1. Open the bag compartment and locate the
filter behind the vacuum bag. For better access
to the HEPA media filter, remove the bag.
2. Grasp the tab with two fingers and pull the filter
out towards you. Replace with a new filter by sliding
the filter in and pushing down on the top of the tab
until it clicks into place.
NOTE: The HEPA media filter cannot be washed
and reused.
At a minimum, it’s recommended to replace the HEPA media and secondary filters after
using 12 vacuum bags.
If someone in your household is sensitive to airborne allergens, it is recommended to
change the filter set after every six vacuum bags.
