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 and
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.
