Simplicity SF9UG-1 HEPA Plus and Granulated Charcoal Filter Set for Synergy G9

The Simplicity SF9UG-1 is the genuine replacement filter set for the Simplicity Synergy G9 upright vacuum. It includes a HEPA Plus media filter, a granulated charcoal filter and a direct air motor filter, so you can change all three filters at once.

Fits these Simplicity vacuums

• Simplicity Synergy G9 upright vacuums

Have a Synergy X9? Simplicity lists a separate set, SF9G-1, for most X9 models, including the X9.10. This box also names the X9, so send us your model number before you order it for an X9 and we'll confirm the right set.

Not for Synergy S40 or Synchrony models. Simplicity sells different filter sets for those vacuums.

Not sure which set you need? Simplicity prints the item number on the side of the HEPA filter. Check it on the filter you're replacing.

What each filter does

• HEPA Plus media filter. The exhaust filter, which sits in the exhaust filter holder.
• Granulated charcoal filter. It sits in a holder on the left side of the bag compartment.
• Direct air motor filter. Simplicity says it protects the motor from excess dirt and dust.

When to replace it

• Every 25 hours of use. Simplicity's Synergy owner's manual says to replace the filters after 25 hours of operation. A filter clock counts the hours and turns on the change filter light on the nozzle.
• Reset the clock. After you change the filters, run the vacuum, remove the cap over the reset button and press it.
• Motor filter too. Simplicity says to replace the direct air motor filter every time you change the HEPA filter.
• Don't wash them. The manual says these filters can't be washed and reused.

HEPA filter: press the release button on top of the exhaust filter holder, take out the used filter and insert the new one. Line up the slot at the base of the holder with the clip on the vacuum, and press it firmly into place. Charcoal filter: open the bag compartment lid, use the latch on top to remove the charcoal filter holder, swap the filter, snap the holder back in and close the lid.

Expert tip

"When the change filter light comes on, replace all three filters together, and put in a fresh bag at the same time. Then reset the filter clock while the vacuum is running, or the light will stay on. Write the date on the box so you know when you last did it."
