Change of dust bag and filtersThe size and quality of the dust bag and filters affect the machine efficiency. Use of non original dust bags or non original filters can cause restricted air flow which may lead to machine overload. Using non-original dust bag or filters will void the warranty.

The machine is a completely air tight construction. This ensures that air and dirt going into the machine, can only get out through the HEPA filter in the end.
