If it catches on anything, stop pressing, and it'll stop rewinding. 27 We've tried not to make it too powerful, to avoid wrecking your home, so you may need to push the plug end into the storage area manually. 5 finished cleaning? indicator window 28 A red bar will move into the indicator window if the bag is full, or if there's a blockage. Stop, switch off, unplug, replace the bag, or clear the blockage. remove the bag 29 You don't have to replace the bag after each use, but you do have to keep an eye on the indicator, and change the bag when it's full, otherwise you'll choke the cleaner. 30 Switch off, unplug, and leave the cleaner for a minute, to let the dust settle. 31 Squeeze the locks on the hose end, and pull the hose out of the cleaner ­ this'll keep the hose out of your way. 32 Squeeze the door release towards the hose inlet, and raise the door, to expose the bag. 33 Grip the top of the cardboard mount, and slide it up and out of the bag holder, then lower the bag gently into the dustbin. . , Don't handle the bag ­ if you squeeze it, you'll eject the contents over your newly cleaned floor. 34 Don't try to empty the bag and reuse it. The bag takes quite a pounding from the suction of the cleaner, and from the dust and dirt hitting its walls. Oils from your skin will weaken it further, so it might burst inside the cleaner. check the pre-motor filter 35 While the bag's out of the way, you should check the pre-motor filter. [. . . ] 59 Wipe the extendable tube and hose with a damp cloth. Use a dab of washing-up liquid to remove any stubborn marks. Remove all trace of the washing-up liquid, and check they're dry before refitting. Don't put them in water, you'll damage them. timing 60 Clean the cleaner frequently. [. . . ]
