Finding the model number

It's worth a look at the rating plate first, because names get reused across generations. Serial number on the bottom of the machine.

When to change them

Wash the filter at least once a month; leave to dry for at least 24 hours. (source)

Washable filters go back in bone dry or not at all. A damp one smells, and on some machines it can let the motor pull moisture through.

A battery doesn't die overnight. The run time on a full charge shrinks month by month, and once it won't get you round the house it's time for a new one.

If it cuts out with charge left, look for a blockage in the wand or filter before you blame the battery. A clogged machine can stop just like a flat one.
