Care of Your Vacuum Cleaner, Grounding Methods

For longer service life and safe use of your vacuum, we recommend the following guidelines: Your cleaner is designed to pick up dirt and dust particles and water. Avoid picking up hard or sharp objects with your cleaner to avoid bag breakage, clogging or possible motor damage.

Remove the plug from the socket before performing maintenance. Before using the machine make sure that the frequency and voltage shown on the rating plate correspond with the mains voltage.

CARE OF YOUR VACUUM CLEANER

Treat your vacuum cleaner as you would any other high grade precision made product. Dropping, unreasonable bumping across thresholds and other misuses may result in a damaged unit which will not be covered under warranty. When not in use the power cord should be wrapped around the molded-in cord wrap for storage. After each use, wipe the vacuum body, accessories and power cord with a slightly damp cloth.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER: IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUS CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Electrical equipment must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The vacuum is equipped with a cord containing a 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.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary. DO NOT connect the grounded wire to a flat bed termi- nal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the ground- ing wire.
