HOW TO MAINTAIN

The instructions given in this booklet serve as a guide to routine maintenance. To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the bag, belt, and brush roll often. Change the bag if it is full; replace the belt if it is stretched or cracked, and clean the brush roll bristles if they are wrapped with thread and hair.

DUST BAG (Style SL)

The dust bag plays a very important role in the efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. The bag traps the dirt and allows the air to pass through. If the bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and no cleaning can take place, regardless of how powerful the unit is. To keep the cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently. Some fine particles can restrict air flow very quickly and will decrease performance even before the bag appears to be full. For that reason, when vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, powder, plaster dust, or similar fine substances, the bag may need to be changed more often.

NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before servicing the bag. Never operate the vacuum cleaner without the dust bag.

NOTE: When cleaning new carpet for the first time, bag will fill quickly. Check often.
