Checking the airflow indicator
^ Attach the standard floor brush
(depending on model) to the vacuum
cleaner. Perform this test with the
floor brush only, other attachments
can affect the function of the airflow
indicator.
^ Turn the vacuum cleaner on and
select the highest power setting.
^ Lift the floor brush slightly off the
floor. If the marker completely fills the
indicator window, the FilterBag needs
to be changed.
How the airflow indicator works
The airflow indicator is designed to show
when the bag is full of common house-
hold dust and measures the amount of
air flow through the FilterBag. 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 FilterBag may become
blocked. The marker will indicate that
the bag is "full" even when it is not. The
FilterBag should be changed as the
suction power is greatly reduced.
If the bag is bulging with pet fur, hair,
carpet fluff, etc. the indicator may not
register "full". This is because the air
flow of the FilterBag may still be high
enough not to activate the marker to
show maximum. The FilterBag should
still be changed.
