Fig. 3

Fig. 4

Fig. 5

2.3 Connecting the machine

The machine is connected with the suction pipe in the uppermost position and the exhaust pipe in the lower position.

This connection should not be glued but can be taped when the unit is serviced at a later date. The suction pipe socket can be ﬁ tted to two different points depending on the direction in which you would like to install the pipe system.

To relocate the suction pipe socket, you need to do the following:

1. Release the suction pipe socket by unscrewing the four combination Torx screws with a Torx T20 or an ordinary screwdriver, Fig. 3.

2. Pull the socket out of the machine, see Fig. 4.

3. Loosen the plug blanking off the outlet to which you intend moving the suction pipe socket. Unscrew the four combination Torx screws. Remove the blanking plug from the machine.

4. Adapt (move) the suction pipe socket to the new outlet. NB! The socket is marked ”Up”. Make sure the socket is ﬁ tted with ÏUpÓ uppermost. Fasten the socket by ﬁ tting and tightening the four screws, Fig. 5.

5. Fit the blanking plug to the outlet previously occupied by the suction pipe socket. Use the four screws to hold it in place. The exhaust pipe must be ﬁ rmly attached to the wall to ensure its connection with the socket does not loosen. Remember that you will need to be able to turn the bent pipe in different directions to ensure a suitable pipe layout. Then connect up the exhaust pipe and mufﬂ er, Fig 6. Fit the central vacuum cleaner so that the exhaust pipe is as short as possible, max. 10 metres. Take the surroundings into consideration when positioning the exhaust. For this reason, you should always ﬁ t a mufﬂ er.

For additional information concerning the assembly and installation of the pipe system and low-current lead, please refer to the separate assembly instructions supplied with the pipe package.

3 Operating instructions Centix 20

Fig. 7

3.1 Starting the machine

The control current outlet (low voltage) should be connected to a control current lead running the length of the pipes.

Both ends of the low-voltage lead should be connected to the connection panel on the vacuum cleaner. One lead to each outlet.

The central vacuum cleaner’s power cable must be connected to a 230 volt mains socket. The appliance is double-insulated and does not need to be earthed.

The vacuum cleaner starts and stops automatically. When the vacuum hose is connected to a vacuum socket, a metal ring on the end of the hose closes the control circuit and the vacuum cleaner starts up. 7. When the hose is removed from the vacuum socket, the vacuum cleaner stops. You should allow the hose to empty of dust and dirt before switching the vacuum cleaner off.

Fig. 9

Filter

3.2 Servicing Always unplug the power cord before

doing any service work!

If suction is poor, it indicates that the ﬂ ow of air through the machine is restricted. This may be due to the following:

• The dust bag is full and should be replaced.

• The ﬁ lter is clogged and should be cleaned.

The vacuum cleaner has a thermal cut-out that trips if the vacuum cleaner becomes overheated. If this happens

- unplug the main power cord to reset the vacuum cleaner. Wait 5-10 minutes to allow the machine to cool down. While you are waiting, check the hose, dust bag and ﬁ lter to be sure that nothing is blocking the ﬂ ow of air through the machine. The vacuum cleaner should now start again. If the cut-out trips again, you need to get a service ﬁ rm to remedy the fault.

The Centix 20 should only be operated with a dust bag and ﬁ lter installed.

Fig. 8

If you use a hose with an on-off switch, you can start and stop the vacuum cleaner using the switch on the handle, Fig. 8.

4.1 Replacing the dust bag

The central vacuum cleaner is ﬁ tted with a paper dust bag as standard; never vacuum without a dust bag installed. Grasp the edge of the lid and pull upwards to open it, Fig. 10.

Replacing the dust bag: Remove the old dust bag by turning the cardboard stiffener to the right or left so that the raised part of the inlet is in line with the opening in the card. Now slide the bag off the bag nozzle.

Fit the new dust bag as follows: Push the opening in the cardboard over the elevation on the inlet and pull on the new bag. Turn the cardboard to lock the bag in place. NB! Turn the edges of the dust bag down into the container. This is to avoid damaging the bag with the lid.

Fig. 11

4.2 Replacing / Cleaning the ﬁ lter

Open the lid and take out the dust bag as described earlier. The ﬁ lter sits at the bottom of the container around the motor housing. Never use the central vacuum cleaner

without a ﬁ lter installed.

Pull the ﬁ lter out of the container, Fig. 12. The ﬁ lter can be cleaned by shaking it or washing it in water.

If you wash the ﬁ lter, you must let it dry completely before reﬁ tting it.

Take the cleaned ﬁ lter and place it in the bottom of the container. Press the outer edge of the ﬁ lter down against the sides of the container so that the ﬁ lter bulges up slightly. Then push the ﬁ lter down into place. Make sure the ﬁ lter is packed in tightly against the motor housing, Fig. 13. Reinstall the dust bag and replace the lid. Check that the lid is ﬁ rmly secured.

Fig. 13

The cardboard stiffener locks the bag in place when you twist it as shown in Fig. 11 above.

The opening in the card must line up and slide over the elevation on the inlet before you twist the cardboard stiffener to lock it.
