To replace the vacuum bag in the Kenmore BC3002, open the canister lid, remove the old bag by pulling it out of the bag holder, and insert a new bag by sliding it into the holder until it is secure. Close the lid ensuring it clicks shut.
If the vacuum loses suction power, check for blockages in the hose or attachments, ensure the dust bag is not full, and clean or replace the filters. Also, inspect the brush roll for tangled hair or debris.
Filters should be cleaned every month or after heavy use. Rinse them under cool water, let them dry completely, and replace them if they are damaged or heavily soiled.
Store the vacuum in a cool, dry place. Ensure the power cord is wound properly using the cord rewind feature and the vacuum head is in the upright position to prevent any damage.
To clean the brush roll, turn off and unplug the vacuum, remove the bottom plate, and take out the brush roll. Use scissors or a seam ripper to remove tangled hair and debris. Reassemble the parts after cleaning.
If you hear unusual noises, turn off the vacuum and check for blockages, inspect the brush roll for debris, and ensure all parts are securely attached. Persistent issues may require professional servicing.
Unplug the vacuum, remove the bottom plate, and take out the brush roll to access the belt. Replace the worn belt with a new one by looping it around the motor shaft and brush roll. Reassemble the vacuum.
Regular maintenance includes emptying the vacuum bag, cleaning or replacing filters, checking for blockages, inspecting the brush roll, and ensuring the power cord is in good condition.
Ensure the vacuum is plugged in and the outlet is functioning. Check the power switch and inspect the cord for damage. If the vacuum still won't turn on, it may require professional repair.
