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 shock.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must
be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
W
ARNING
- 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.
This appliance is for use on a normal 120 volt circuit, and has a grounded
plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary adapter
that looks like the adapter illustrated in fig B and C may be used to con-
nect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in fig B if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet (fig A) can be installed by a qualified
electrician, The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending for the
adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover. 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.
● Do not vacuum water or liquids.
● Do not vacuum up hard or sharp objects, as they may damage the
hose, vacuum bag or the vacuum motor.
● Do not drop the vacuum on the floor.
● Do not operate the vacuum while it is standing on high-pile carpet.
It is essential that the exhaust airflow is not restricted.
● Do not wash or launder the cloth vacuum bag. It would destroy
the filtration capacity of the fabric.
● Do not kink or twist the power cord.
● Do not attempt to service the vacuum yourself. Repair by anyone
other than an authorized repair service center may void the warranty.
● Clean the cloth vacuum bag regularly. After emptying the vacuum
bag, turn it inside out and shake as much dust out of the fabric as
possible. Optimum performance is achieved by using a paper
vacuum bag with the cloth bag.
● Check the power cord for damage.
Always unwind the cable completely.
● Ensure that the vacuum hose, the extension wand and the
vacuuming accessories are not blocked.
● Ensure that the electrical outlet and the plug are securely
connected. Incorrect connections may cause sparking and damage
to the cable socket.
● Have your Backpack Vacuum served by an authorized repair service
center if you suspect any potential problems.
● Use only approved paper vacuum bags.
● Ensure that the flexible vacuum bag ring provides a proper seal
before vacuuming.
