The clean filter indicator tells you when the air flow in your vacuum is reduced due to dirty filters or a clog in the hose. The clean filter indicator will remain green while the unit is running until the airflow is reduced by a clog or dirty filter. At that time, it begins to change to red or black. When it is fully red, the airflow is significantly reduced or clogged by a dirty filter. Follow the steps on page 11 to clean your filters. All filters in the vacuum should be cleaned or replaced when the clean filter indicator turns red.

If the indicator turns black, it means you have a clog in your hose. To check and remove the clog, remove the hose from the unit by turning the Twist ‘n Snap hose to the right. Try to visually locate the clog. Once you have done this, use a blunt long object such as a broom handle to loosen and remove the debris. Once this is completed, reassemble the hose to the unit.

If the indicator remains red or black with the vacuum running, follow the steps on page 15 to check for and clear clogs.

NOTE: When your vacuum is turned off, the clean filter indicator will go to the red color setting. The clean filter indicator only detects reductions in airflow when the vacuum power is on.
