Ne brancher l'appareil qu'à une prise avec mise à la terre.
INSTRUCTIONS DE
MISE À LA TERRE
Cet appareil doit avoir une mise à la terre.
Si une défectuosité ou autre survenait, la
mise à la terre offre une voie de moindre
résistance au courant électrique, d'où un
risque moins élevé d électrocution. Cet
appareil est équipé d' un cordon
électricque ayant un conducteur et une
fiche de mise à la terre. Cette fiche doit
être branchée dans une prise appropriée
qui a été installée et mise à la terre
convenablement en accord avec le code
électrique de votre région.
AVERTISSEMENT
Un branchement incorrect de
l'équipement de mise à la terre peut
causer un risque d'électrocution. Si vous
avez un doute concernant la mise à la
terre de votre prise, veuillez faire vérifier
votre installation par un électricien
qualifié ou une personne du service
après-vente. Ne pas modifier la fiche
fournie avec l'appareil - si la fiche ne se
branche pas à la prise, faites installer une
prise adéquate par un électricien qualifié.

Dirt Devil® Built - In Central Vacuum Systems
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
General Information
Do Not Store Objects on top of the
power unit. This will block the motor
cooling ventilation. Restricting the
cooling airflow may shorten the
motor life.
The central vacuum is designed to
vacuum ordinary household dirt and
dust. The system is designed for dry
pickup. A Wetvac accessory is
needed if the system will be used
for liquid pickup.
The central vacuum system is a
network of inlet valves, 2” PVC
tubing, and low voltage wiring
installed in the walls of your home.
To operate the system, simply plug
the hose into an inlet valve, attach
the cleaning tool to the curved hose
end and begin vacuuming. The dirt
is transported through the in-wall
tube system back to the dirt canister
(located on the power unit).
Caution: Do not allow the motor to
remain turned on, unless a hose is
connected or an inlet valve is open. If air
is not permitted to pass through the fan
blades, damage may occur to the motor.
Operating Instructions
Using the Central Vacuum System is
easy. Simply raise the inlet valve
lid, insert the hose end and attach
the desired cleaning tool to the
hose wand. The Power Unit is
activated when the hose is inserted
into the valve.
Emptying the Dirt
Canister & Replacing
The Filter Cartridge
The dirt canister – where the vacuumed dirt is deposited – is the
removable lower portion of the
power unit. The canister needs to
be removed and emptied when it is
1/2 - 2/3 full. The filter cartridge
should be replaced once a year.
When the dirt canister is removed
the Cyclonic Cone will be visible.
The cone is designed to stay attached to the body of the power
unit when the dirt canister is removed. The cone is removable to
allow access to the replaceable
pleated filter. To replace the cone,
follow the steps listed under replacing the filter.

the cyclonic cone seal are
“seated” properly to the body of
the unit.
4) Insert new pleated filter (p/n
8107-01) and engage filter latch
(by rotating it 90° clockwise until
you feel it snap in place).
5) Raise the dirt canister (with cone
inside) to the proper location

Troubleshooting the
Maintenance
The simple care and maintenance
instructions included here will help
ensure trouble-free use of the
central vacuum system.
•Do not place objects on top of the
power unit. The motor could
overheat.
•Do not allow the motor to remain
“on” unless a hose is connected or
an inlet valve is open. If airflow is
not permitted to flow through fan
blades, motor damage may occur.
•Empty the dirt canister when it is
1/2 - 2/3 full.
• Change the filter cartridge once a
year.
• The power unit does not require
any lubrication.
• The exterior of the power unit can
be wiped with a clean, dry cloth.
Do not use liquid cleaners or
water as an electrical shock may
occur.
• For additional service contact a
qualified service person.
system
Motor Fails to Turn On:
• Check the main fuse or circuit
breaker at the main power supply
panel of your home. Reset breaker
or replace fuses if necessary.
• Check the Power unit reset button
located above the power cord.
Pressing the button should restore
operation.
• If the circuit protector continues to
trip off after a short period of
time, the motor brushes may be
worn out. Call a qualified service
person for service.
Loss of Vacuum
If the system shows a loss of
vacuum power, check the following:
• The dirt receptacle and filter may
need cleaned – follow instructions
in this guide.
• The hose may be clogged – To
check if there is an obstruction,
unplug the hose and insert an
object that is smaller then the
diameter of the hose (A butter
knife works well). Pass the object
completely through the hose, if it
stops that will indicate where the
obstruction is located. A dry
garden hose can be inserted into
the hose to help push obstruction
through.
