technology only.
These are available from the dealer you pur-
chased your GRUNDIG vacuum cleaner from.
If you do not want to use dust bags
with integrated Microban® antibacterial protec-
tion you can also use dust bags from Swirl, Type
Y 101 for VCC 7650.
However, please note that if you use this dust bag
in your GRUNDIG vacuum cleaner it will not have
full antibacterial protection.
