4. Installation (Setup)

Follow these steps to replace your vacuum bag:

1. Safety First: Always unplug your vacuum cleaner from the electrical outlet before attempting any maintenance or bag replacement.
2. Access Bag Compartment: Locate and open the vacuum bag compartment on your Regina vacuum cleaner. Refer to your vacuum cleaner's user manual if you are unsure of its location.
3. Remove Old Bag: Carefully remove the full or old vacuum bag. Dispose of the old bag according to local waste disposal guidelines.
4. Insert New Bag: Take a new 3M Filtrete Style P vacuum bag. Align the bag's collar with the vacuum's bag inlet and firmly push it into place until it is securely seated. Ensure there are no gaps.
5. Install Filter (if applicable): If your vacuum uses a separate filter and you are replacing it with the bonus filter, install it according to your vacuum's instructions.
6. Close Compartment: Close the vacuum bag compartment securely. Ensure it latches properly to prevent dust leakage during operation.

5. Operation

Once the new vacuum bag is securely installed, you can resume normal operation of your Regina vacuum cleaner. The micro allergen filtration material helps to capture common household allergens such as dust mite debris, pollen, and pet dander, improving indoor air quality.

For optimal performance, regularly check the bag fullness indicator on your vacuum (if available) or monitor suction power. A full bag will reduce cleaning efficiency.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and effectiveness of your vacuum cleaner and the bags:

• Bag Replacement: Replace the vacuum bag when it is approximately two-thirds full, or when you notice a decrease in suction power. Overfilling the bag can strain the vacuum motor and reduce filtration efficiency.
• Filter Replacement: The included bonus filter should be replaced periodically. Refer to your specific Regina vacuum cleaner's manual for recommended filter replacement intervals.
• Storage: Store unused vacuum bags in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain their integrity.

7. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues after installing a new bag, consider the following:

• Reduced Suction Power:
  • Check if the new bag is fully seated and sealed within the compartment.
  • Ensure the bag is not already full or nearing capacity.
  • Inspect the vacuum hose and attachments for any clogs.
• Dust Leakage:
  • Verify that the bag compartment door is securely closed and latched.
  • Check the bag for any tears or punctures before installation.
  • Ensure the bag's collar is properly sealed around the vacuum's inlet.

If problems persist, consult your Regina vacuum cleaner's original instruction manual or contact Regina customer support.
