For best results, change disposable filter bag regularly even if it is not
completely full. An extremely dirty bag or a bag close to full will affect
the suction of the cleaner and can create excessive motor heat that
could damage the motor. A good practice is to change filter bag every
30 days even if it is not full.

Do not pick up moist material or liquids.

If fine materials such as soot, cement, plaster dust, copy machine
powder, etc. are picked up, the bag surface may seal and suction will
be reduced. Change bag when this occurs.
