GROUNDING
OUTLET BOX
DAMAGE:
• Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with this product, as they may cause damage.
• Store appropriately indoors 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

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.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE POSSIBLE SOLUTION
If System Check
Indicator is red:
Any other servicing should be done by an authorized service representative.
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. Empty dirt cup.
3. Inspect and remove blockage along the dirt path. This blockage may occur at the: nozzle inlet,
hose connector, hose, dirt cup inlet, cyclonic filter, Rinsable filter, and HEPA 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.
1. Rinsable filter and/or filter made
with HEPA media is dirty.
2. Dirt cup is full and/or clogged. 2. Empty dirt cup - reference pg. 9
3. Brushroll and/or hose is
clogged.
