The carbon residue is normal. My Guardian Platinum's post-motor HEPA filter is also black. Running the machine on full speed will cause the carbon brushes to wear much faster than if you used the Auto setting. The slower the motor runs, the longer its life. Don't be concerned by the carbon residue, it's normal.

It just so happens I checked mine today, after changing the bag about 5-6 times. It had a very small amount of black on it. Not enough to warrent changing it. I Will not wait five years to change, but so far so good. | ||

This video from a dealer in VA shows how the Platinum has now been upgraded to automatically shut off when the bag is full instead of just turning on the bag full indicator like my Platinum does. I don't know why they took this feature away initially on the first generations of Platinums but I'm glad they have put it back. The guy in the video makes it sound like it is a wonderful new invention.

Rob,
Not having the auto shut off was one of my complaints when I first got my Platinum. I even called the Aerus support line to confirm that the machine was not supposed to shut off - just turn on the full bag indicator light. I guess they must have had a lot of complaints so added back the feature. My power nozzle has the high pitched squeal as well which I never noticed with my 6500 or 9000 models. Gary | ||

I got my Guardian Platinum from Rich Luisi, vice president of Aerus. I knew it was a prototype when I got it. Mine has always shut off automatically when the bag was full, so I remember being surprised when no one else's model did. Rich also put the brush roller with the green stiff bristles in mine before it was shipped. It also has the original power nozzle top, not the black one like the current model.
