The S-bag® indicator light is illuminated

Issue

  • The S-bag indicator light is illuminated
  • Suction power is reduced, do I need to change the bag?
  • When to change the bag?
  • The "S-bag" indicator is lit in white when vacuum cleaner operates
  • The S-bag indicator turns red

Applies to:

  • Vacuum Cleaner

Resolution

1. Check if the S-bag® is full or blocked.

Always change the S-bag® when the indicator signal is illuminated even if the s-bag® is not full (it may be blocked), and always after using carpet cleaning powder.

In some models (i.e. AEG VX8.2) the indicator can illuminate in two colours:

White (or inactive - model depending) - the vacuum cleaner is operating normally, no bag change is needed.

Red - the bag is full and needs to be replaced.

After replacing the bag, the lamp lights up red for about 5 seconds and then continues to light up in white.

Use only AEG/Electrolux original synthetic s-bags®.
