SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCES

A double-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of the following: The words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or
“DOUBLE INSULATED” or the double insulation symbol (square within a square).

In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means
is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing
a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by
qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they
replace.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit

in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Afin de réduire le risque de choc électrique, cet appareil est muni dʼune fiche polarisée (une des lames est plus large).
Cette fiche ne peut être insérée dans une prise polarisée que dʼune seule façon. Si la fiche ne peut être insérée dans la
prise, retourner la fiche. Si la fiche ne peut toujours pas être insérée dans la prise, faire installer une prise adéquate par un
électricien qualifié. Ne pas modifier la fiche.

This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of motor overheating. If the cleaner suddenly
shuts off, push power switch off and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for a possible source of overheating such as a full
bag, a blocked hose or clogged filter. If these conditions are found, fix them and wait at least 30 minutes before attempting
to use the cleaner. After the 30 minute period, plug the cleaner back in and turn on the switch. If the cleaner still does not
run, then take it to a Eureka Authorized Service Center for repair.

HOW TO MAINTAIN

The instructions in this booklet serve as a guide to routine maintenance. To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the bag,
belt, and brush roll often.

Brush Roll

The brush roll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap. Remove hair and threads from the brush roll so it continues
brushing the carpet. To maintain the most efficient cleaning, the bristles must touch the carpet. To test the bristle length, hold
a ruler against the underneath side of the cleaner. If the bristles no longer touch the ruler, replace the brush roll.

Brush Roll Belt

The brush roll belt turns the brush roll to agitate, sweep, and comb the carpet nap. Check the belt regularly to be sure it is
in good condition. Replace the belt if it stretches, cracks or loses tension. Cut away any hair or threads wound around the
brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup could cause the belt to rotate unevenly.

How To Replace Brush Roll Belt

NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before replacing belt. Belt pulleys can become hot

during normal use. To prevent injury, avoid touching the motor pulley when checking the belt.
