Air flow indicator
Select Models Only
The air flow Indicator tells you when the air flow
in your vacuum is reduced due to dirty filters or a
clog in the hose. The air flow indicator will remain
green while the unit is running until the airflow is
reduced by a clog or dirty filter. At that time, it begins
to change to red or black. When it is fully red, the
airflow is significantly reduced or clogged by a dirty
filter. Follow the steps on page 11 to clean your
filters. All filters in the vacuum should be cleaned or
replaced when the air flow indicator turns red.
If the indicator turns black, it means you have a clog
in your hose. To check and remove the clog, remove
the hose from the unit by turning the Twist ‘n Snap
hose to the right. Try to visually locate the clog. Once
you have done this, use a blunt long object such as a
broom handle to loosen and remove the debris. Once
this is completed, reassemble the hose to the unit.
If the indicator remains red or black with the
vacuum running, follow the steps on page 15 to
check for and clear clogs.
notE: When your vacuum is turned off,
the air flow indicator will go to the red
colour setting. the air flow Indicator only
detects reductions in airflow when the
vacuum power is on.
