IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read These Instructions Before Using This Vacuum System
Installation of this product should be made by a qualified, authorized central vacuum dealer. Before installing, using, or servicing this product, the installer should carefully read and fully understand the instructions including all warnings, cautions, and safety notice statements.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, death and/or property damage, follow all instructions for proper installation, operation and maintenance. These instructions are not intended as a complete listing of all details for installation, operation and maintenance. If you have any
questions concerning any of these procedures, STOP, and call an authorized central vacuum dealer.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
•Unplug and disconnect power before servicing.
•Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
•Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
•Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to an authorized servicing dealer.
•Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, 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

WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a 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.
