Familiarize yourself with these home maintenance tasks as proper use and care of your cleaner will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.

Filter bag

When to replace

Check filter bag from time to time. Your cleaner will not operate effec- tively if the filter bag is too full.

NOTE: All new carpet has loose fibers which can fill the bag quickly while vacuuming.

If you are using the cleaner on new carpet, be sure to change the filter bag often.

CAUTION: Very fine materials, such as face powder or corn- starch, may seal the filter bag and cause it to burst even though it is only partially full of dirt. When cleaner is used to remove material of this nature, change filter bag often.

Filter bags may be purchased from your Authorized Hoover Dealer (Depot), Leading Retailers, Hoover Sales and Service Centers or on-line at www.hoover.com, or using the reorder form at the back of this manual.

Filtration Type W2 (patent pending) disposable filter bags, part No. 401080W2. Genuine HOOVER® Allergen Filtration Type W2 disposable filter bags, part No. 401010W2 may also be used.
