Replacing the dust bag (D)
We recommend always using Hotpoint-
Ariston's original dust bags, because their
special material allows optimum air ltration,
maximum dust/powder retention, high
performances and a long motor life.
We recommend replacing the bag when the
full-bag red indicator lights up. In any case
change it at least once a year to be always sure of
the best efciency of your appliance. The pores of
a bag clogged with dust/powder particles reduce
the motor's suction power and can even damage
it.
1. Make sure the appliance is disconnected from
the electrical outlet.
