Cleaning and replacing the pre-motor and post-motor filter

Filters protect the motor from dirt and dust particles. Use only BISSELL replacement filters in your Zing Bagged canister vacuum.

1.Turn the power OFF (). Unplug the vacuum from electrical outlet.

2.Disconnect the flex hose by turning the hose cuff counterclockwise.

3.To locate the pre-motor filter, open the dust bag compartment by lifting up on the latch located underneath the carry handle. Remove the dust bag from the dust bag folder.

4.Locate the circular pre-motor filter in the dust bag compartment. To remove the pre-motor filter, first remove the clip located in the center of the pre-motor filter. This clip holds the filter in-place during use. Do not remove the pre-motor filter without first removing the pre-motor filter clip.

5.After removing the pre-motor filter clip, remove the circular pre-motor filter and clean by hand washing in warm water. A mild detergent may be used if desired. Allow the filter to air dry completely before replacing.

6.Position the pre-motor filter inside the dust bag compartment. With the filter in-place, insert the pre-motor filter clip in the hole located in the center of the filter. Replace the vacuum bag per the instructions on page 7. Close the dust bag compartment door and reconnect the flex hose.

7.To locate the post-motor filter, first locate the vent underneath the Variable Suction Power Control knob and next to the power switch and cord rewind button. Remove the vent grate by pushing up on the grooves at the bottom of the grate.

8.With the vent grate removed, locate the post-motor foam filter attached to the grate. Remove the foam filter and clean by hand washing in warm water. A mild detergent may be used if desired. Allow the filter to air dry completely before replacing.

9.Replace the post-motor foam filter in the vent grate and attach the vent grate to the vacuum.
