3. Maintenance

Familiarize yourself with these home

maintenance tasks as proper use and

care of your cleaner will ensure contin-

ued cleaning effectiveness.

Filter bag

When to replace

Check filter bag from time to time. It is

recommended that you change the filter

bag when dirt reaches the dotted line.

If more dirt than this accumulates, your

cleaner may not operate effectively.

NOTE: Check and change the filter bag

frequently when using cleaner on new

carpet due to rapid accumulation of

carpet fluff.

CAUTION: Very fine materials, such

as face powder, cornstarch, fireplace

ashes or fireplace soot, may seal the

paper bag and may cause it to burst

even though it is only partially full of

dirt. When cleaner is used to remove

material of this nature, change the

filter bag often.

Where to buy

Filter bags may be purchased from your

local Authorized Hoover Dealer (Depot),
