GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resisitance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service person if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and
has a ground plug that looks like the plug illustrated in figure
1. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this appliance.
INSTRUCCIONES PARA LA CONEXION ELECTRICA DE LA MAQUINA
La máquina debe ser puesta a tierra. En caso de mal
funcionamiento o de avería, el hilo de tierra es un camino de
menor resistencia que permite el paso de corriente ; por lo
cual se reduce el riesgo de choque eléctrico. La máquina
tiene un cable de alimentación con tres cordones y un
enchufe con tres clavijas de las cuales una está puesta a
tierra. El enchufe sólo puede ser conectado con una caja de
enchufe reglamentaria, puesta a tierra con todas las reglas
del arte y conforme a los reglamentos locales.
Toma

AVISO: Una conexión incorrecta del
conductor de puesta a tierra puede causar un
choque eléctrico. Acuda a un técnico
autorizado o a un electricista si tiene alguna
duda acerca de la puesta a tierra correcta de su
caja de enchufe. Nunca modifique el enchufe
suministrado con la máquina. Si no encaja el
enchufe en la caja de enchufe, haga cambiar su
caja de enchufe por un electricista autorizado.

INSTRUCTIONS VISANT LA MISE A LA TERRE
Cet appareil doit être mis à la terre. En cas de défaillance
ou de panne éventuelles, la mise à la terre fournit au courant
un chemin de moindre résistance quI réduit le risque de choc
électrique. Cet appareil est pourvu d'un cordon muni d'un
conducteur de terre et d'une fiche avec broche de terre. La
fiche doit être branchée dans une prise appropriée
correctement installée et mise a la terre conformément aux
règlements et ordonnances municipaux.

technicien d'entretien qualifié si vous n'êtes pas
certain que la prise est correctement mise à la
terre. Ne pas modifier la fiche fournie avec
l'appareil - si elle ne peut être inséreé dans la prise,
faire installer une prise adéquate par un électricien

HOW TO CHANGE DISPOSABLE PAPER BAG
How to Change Disposable Paper Bag (Optional
Accessory - See page 7, #4)
Disconnect unit from electrical outlet before changing
bag.
Change the dust bag frequently. Some fine particles
can restrict airflow very quickly and will decrease
performance even before the bag appears to be full.
For that reason, when vacuuming carpet freshners or
cleaners, powder, plastic dust, or similar fine substances, the bag may need to be changed more often.
1. Unzip the paper bag cover. Roll spring down to
release paper bag tube from dust bag connector.
2. Put a new paper bag in the vacuum cleaner. Slide
paper bag tube over connector and roll spring up to
hold bag. Be sure zipper printing on paper aligns-up
with zipper on paper bag cover. Tuck dust bag into
permanent bag. Make sure dust bag is fully
extended in the bag cover, zip the bag cover.
CAUTION: Be sure to clean impeller chamber every
time you change the disposable paper
bag. Do not attempt to empty and
reuse your paper bag when full, always
replace it with a new one.
HOW TO CLEAN PERMANENT BAG
Disconnect unit from electrical outlet before cleaning
bag.
1. Un hook spring from hook.
2. Turn knob and release bag support from bag support
guide.
3. Release bag closing clip from Permanent Bag. Still
holding the bag, put the opening in a plastic bag and
shake well to empty it.
4. Insert bag closing clip to Permanent Bag.
5. Hold Permanent Bag on back of unit with printing
facing handle tube. Slide lower bag support into
slots of bag support guide. Push bag support
towards inlet and turn knob to fasten. Insert Spring
onto hook.
CAUTION: Be sure to clean fan chamber every time
you empty permanent bag.

COMO CAMBIAR LA BOLSA DE PAPEL
COMMENT CHANGER LE SAC DE PAPIER
Como cambiar la bolsa de papel (Accesorio
Opcional- pagina 7, #4)
Desconecte la unidad antes de cambiar la bolsa.
Cambie la bolsa de papel frecuentemente, algunas
particulas muy finas pueden restringir el paso del aire y
disminuir el poder de succión aún antes de que la
bolsa parezca estar llena. Por esta razón, la bolsa
necesitará ser cambiada más seguido al aspirar polvos
para limpiar alfombras, polvo de pastas o substancias
finas similares.
1. Abras el cierre de la cubierta de la bolsa de papel,
baje el resorte para soltar el tubo de la bolsa de
papel del conector de la bolsa.
2. Coloque una nueva bolsa de papel en la barredora,
deslice el tubo de la bolsa de papel sobre la
conección y ajuste el resorte para que sostenga la
bolsa, asegúrese de que la impresión del cierre en
el papel coincida con el cierre en la cubierta de la
bolsa, acomode la bolsa de papel dentro de la
cubierta de la bolsa asegurándose que esté
completamente extendida dentro de ésta, cierre la
cubierta de la bolsa.
PRECAUCION: Asegúrese de limpiar la entrada de
la barredora cada vez que cambie
la bolsa de papel, no trate de
vaciar la bolsa de papel para volver
a usarla, siempre sustitúyala por
una nueva.
