Safeguards

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

• IMPORTANT: Make sure filter bag is in place. Do not operate cleaner without filter bag. Damage to motor may occur.

• Be sure bag gasket is in place. If the white bag gasket is damaged or lost, replace at once.

• For best results, change disposable filter bag regularly even if it is not completely full. An extremely dirty bag or a bag close to full will affect the suction of the cleaner and can create excessive motor heat that could damage the motor. A good practice is to change filter bag every 30 days even if it is not full.

• Do not pick up moist material or liquids.

• Clean your vacuum cleaner with a damp (not wet) cloth in the disposable bag cavity and the outside of canister unit.

• 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.
