The vacuum cleaner bag is not fitted properly or the lid cannot close

Issue

• The vacuum cleaner is dirty in the bag compartment
• The vacuum cleaner bag jumped on my vacuum cleaner
• The lid of my vacuum cleaner can't close

Applies to

• Bagged Vacuum

Solution

Check the bag location and always use only original vacuum bags for best results and durability.

• If there is dust in the bag compartment, the vacuum bag is placed incorrectly in the holder or an incorrect bag is used (not the original bag).
• This can be checked by removing the hose, and then you should be able to see all the way into the bag otherwise it is not sealed properly.
• Normally, the bag lid will be difficult to close if no bag is fitted or if it is not sealed properly.
  
  Here is an example where the bag is fitted incorrectly:

Bag issue:

If the vacuum cleaner bag breaks or has been in the wrong position for a long time, the machine should be inspected by a technician, otherwise, there is a risk that the motor will wear out in a short time due to dust ingression.
