HOW TO MAINTAIN
8
The paper bag and filter play a very important role in the efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the paper bag is
to trap dirt and at the same time the paper must be porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the paper bag or filter
become clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and no cleaning takes place regardless of how powerful the unit. To
keep the cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently and clean the filter as necessary.
Some fine particles can restrict airflow very quickly and will decrease performance even before the bag appears to be full.
When vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, plaster dust, or similar fine substances, clean the bag and filter more often.
HOW TO CHANGE DISPOSABLE DUST BAG
Open cleaner cover.
Pull the sliding tab to remove
dust bag.
Insert new dust bag by sliding the bag
slots into the holder. Close cover.
Use GENUINE EUREKA replacement bag, 61230. NOTE: Lid will not latch if dust bag is not installed.
HOW TO CHANGE MOTOR FILTER

Use GENUINE EUREKA replacement motor filter, 61263. The motor filter can be cleaned. Run under water and allow to
thoroughly air dry. NOTE: Lid will not latch if dust bag is not installed.

covering strip.
Important: Insert new filter into

install filter with covering strip
securely in place. Close cover.
NOTE: Turn off the power switch and disconnect electrical plug from wall socket before
changing dust bag. Never use the cleaner without a dust bag or filters.
HOW TO CHANGE HEPA FILTER AND FINAL FILTER
Open filter cover by lifting up on
latches and pulling filter cover out
and away from the cleaner.
