Installing filter bag
CAUTION:
Do not use a damaged filter bag.
Always use the vacuum cleaner with the filter bag
properly installed. Otherwise the vacuumed dust
or particles may be exhausted from the cleaner
and they may cause respiratory disease to the

When the filter bag is already full, replace
with new one. Continuous use with the filter bag full
results in reduced suction power.
