Safeguards
WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical
outlet before servicing.
• IMPORTANT : Make sure filter bag is in place. Do not operate
cleaner without filter bag. Damage to motor may occur.
• Be sure bag gasket is in place. If the white bag gasket is
damaged or lost, replace at once.
• For best results, change disposable filter bag regularly even if
it is not completely full. An extremely dirty bag or a bag close
to full will affect the suction of the cleaner and can create
excessive motor heat that could damage the motor. A good
practice is to change filter bag every 30 days even if it is not full.
• Do not pick up moist material or liquids.
• Clean your vacuum cleaner with a damp (not wet) cloth in the
disposable bag cavity and the outside of canister unit.
• IMPORTANT: DO NOT REMOVE the dirt retaining flap
attached on the back of the front plate. It must be left in place
for the unit to operate properly and to ensure cleaning
effectiveness.
Important Electrical Information
The wires in the main lead are coloured in accordance with the following
code:
Blue - Neutral Brown - Live
If the colours of the wires in the main lead of this appliance do not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter
N or coloured black. The wire coloured brown
must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured
red. Do not make any connection to the terminal marked E or or
coloured green and yellow.
This appliance is double insulated and no earth connection is necessary.
If you remove the plug from power supply cord, dispose of it. A
shock hazard could result if incorrect plug is inserted into a 13
AMP socket outlet.
When changing fuse, use 5 AMP or same size replacement
fuse.
Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted in place.
The fuse carrier is red and hinged to the plug. Do not use the plug
if it is different.
If necessary, you may contact customer service for replacement
fuse covers.
MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM: If fine materials such as soot,
cement, plaster dust, copy machine powder, etc. are picked up,
the bag surface may seal and cause the motor to shut off to
avoid over-heating. If this happens, turn the switch off then turn
off the wall socket and/or unplug the cleaner. Replace filter bag.
Check and clear any clogs in hose or accessories. After
approximately 30 min. the motor will have cooled and the cleaner
will be ready to use.
Note: The cleaner must remain unplugged for 30 minutes
for motor to cool and system to reset.
When using an electrical appliance, basic
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
