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.
Please note that in some models (i.e. AEG VX8.2) the indicator can illuminate in two colours:
White / green (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®.
