CAUTION: TO REDUCE ThE RISK Of DAMAGE:
GROUNDING OUTLET BOX
• Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with this product, as they may cause
damage.
• Store in a dry place. Do not expose machine to freezing temperatures.
• Brushroll continues to turn while product is turned on and handle is in upright position. To avoid damage to carpet, rugs, furniture and flooring, avoid tipping cleaner or setting it on furniture, fringed area rugs, or carpeted
stairs during tool use.
• Do not use sharp objects to clean out hose as they can cause damage.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug (A). The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet (B) 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 the 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 grounding plug that looks like the plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is not available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (B) can be installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground (G) such as a properly grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.

CHECK BAG INDICATOR
The indicator (L) will begin to show red as the filter bag fills with dirt. There are three conditions that will cause the indicator to become completely red:
1. If the bag is full; change the bag.
2. If very fine materials have been picked up, clogging the bag pores; change the bag.
3. If there is a blockage in the nozzle, hose, tools or at the bag opening; remove the blockage.
3.5

4. MAINTENANCE
Familiarize yourself with these home maintenance tasks as proper use and care of your vacuum will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.
Any other servicing should be done by an authorized service representative. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water,
take it to a service center prior to continuing use.
! !
A Thermal Protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates the cleaner will stop running. If this happens proceed as follows:
1. Turn cleaner OFF and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
2. Replace Filter Bag.
3. Inspect and remove blockage along the dirt path. This blockage may occur at the: nozzle inlet, hose connector, hose, bag opening inlet, secondary filter and final filter.
4. When cleaner is unplugged and motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal protector will deactivate and cleaning may continue. If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner needs servicing.
NOTICE
FILTER BAG: When to Replace
Check filter bag from time to time. It is recommended that you change the filter bag when dirt reaches the dotted line. If more dirt than this accumulates, your cleaner will not operate effectively.
IMPORTANT
All new carpet has loose fibers which can fill the bag quickly while vacuuming. This type of debris does not activate the “Check bag” indicator available on some models.
What to Buy: Filter bag
Use only genuine HOOVER® bags with your vacuum. When purchasing a new bag, ask for HOOVER #902419001 or Carbon HEPA Type Y Bag Part #902481001.
Actual model may vary from images shown.
