Note: Do NOT unfold the filter bag when you first remove it from the box. ^ Wait until you have inserted the filter bag into the compartment before unfolding it. ^ Now close the dust compartment lid until it clicks into place, taking care not to catch the filter bag in the lid. ,If you do not insert a replacement filter bag, the dust compartment lid is designed not to close.
