Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for
electrical current, reducing the risk of electric shock. The cord for
this appliance has an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. It must only be plugged into an electrical outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to
whether the outlet is grounded. If not, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit. It has a
grounding plug similar to the example shown. Make sure the
appliance is connected to an outlet with the same configuration as
the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.

Vacuum Shutdown
If the vacuum becomes overloaded, which could occur by sucking
up a large obstruction or on extremely thick carpet, the electronics
are designed to shut down the vacuum. If this happens, the vacuum
will be turned off. To reset the vacuum turn the unit off, wait 5
seconds, and then turn it back on. If it shuts down again there may
be a large obstruction in the vacuum. See page 6 for the steps on
clearing a blockage.

General Information

and maintenance. The instructions in this manual will guide you in
performing basic care and maintenance. To obtain the most satisfying years of service read the instructions and keep them handy
for future reference.
Operating Recommendations
This new ORECK XL High-Speed Upright gets under things, and it’s
SO lightweight and easy to use.
The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:
1. When inserting a new disposable paper filter dust bag—
FIRST PUFF OUT and OPEN THE BAG.
2. When the disposable filter dust bag is full, REPLACE IT.
3. If at any time the machine does not pick up properly or makes
an unusual noise, STOP OPERATION and service.
4. Although your upright will pick up pins, paper clips, and other
small objects, it is recommended that these be removed from
the floor before you vacuum. Failure to do so may result in
permanent damage to the motor suction fan and its housing.
5. WARNING: Do not use your vacuum cleaner on damp or
wet surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum cleaner
and is dangerous to the user. Damage caused by use on wet
or damp surfaces is not covered under warranty.
6. Change the disposable filter dust bag at least once a month—
even if it is not full! The collected dust in the dust bag can
cause odor, attract moisture, act as a breeding area and can
affect the efficiency of the cleaner.
7. DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over cord. The revolving
brush could damage the cord.
8. Use caution when vacuuming over area rug edges & fringe.
