Checking the airflow indicator ^ Attach the standard floor brush (depending on model) to the vacuum cleaner. Perform this test with the standard floor brush only, other attachments can affect the function of the airflow indicator. If the marker completely fills the indicator window, the dustbag needs to be changed. How the airflow indicator works The airflow indicator is designed to show when the bag is full of common household dust and measures the amount of air flow through the dustbag. Normal household dust is a mixture of dust, hair, carpet fluff, threads, sand, etc. However, if fine dust, such as drill dust, sand, plaster or flour is vacuumed, the pores of the dustbag may become blocked. The marker will indicate that the bag is "full" even when it is not. The dustbag should be changed as the suction power is greatly reduced. This is because the air flow of the dustbag may still be high enough not to activate the marker to show maximum. The dustbag should still be changed. 23 Maintenance and care How to change the dustbag ^ Lift the release button for the dust compartment lid and raise the lid until it clicks into place.
