Correct if present.

Check each inlet valve for air leaks. Start the system by plugging the hose into each valve to make sure it functions properly.

Your Central Vacuum Cleaning System is now ready for your use.

4. Maintenance

Disconnect cord from electrical outlet before cleaning filter.

The only maintenance your Power Canister requires is emptying the dust container as required and periodically cleaning the filter.

To clean the filter:

1)Remove the dirt container by unlatch- ing the latches located on each side of the dirt container.

2)Place a plastic grocery bag over the dacron/cloth filter and around the cyclonic deflector that surrounds the fil- ter.

3)Using the plastic bag as hand pro- tection from dirt particles, shake the filter to cause any particles adhering to the filter to fall into the bag. (Fig. 4-1)

4)Replace the dirt container and secure latches.

4-1

5)If the cloth filter should need to be removed, grasp it near the top and pull towards the middle of the unit in order to remove.

4-2

6)To replace the cloth filter, you must decrease the circumference of the filter by pulling one side of the filter towards the center of the filter to create a “V” or “U” shape (see Fig. 4-2).

7)Place the filter back into the unit and let the filter snap outward into the groove. NOTE: Printing must be on the inside of the bag when installed.

IMPORTANT

Make sure the cloth filter is fitting properly into the groove so it will not come out when the machine is turned on. Failure to do so could void your warranty.

If you have a problem

If a minor problem develops, it usually can be remedied quite easily when the cause is found by using the check list below.

Problem: Cleaner won’t run

Possible cause

Possible solution

•Not firmly plugged in

•Plug in firmly

•No voltage in wall plug

•Check fuse or breaker

•Blown fuse/tripped breaker

•Replace fuse/reset breaker

*If your unit does not start after reset- ting the breaker, check the telephone book for a HOOVER COMPANY listing; or consult the Yellow Pages of your Telephone Directory for the nearest location where approved service and genuine HOOVER replacement parts may be obtained. For service under warranty, follow the instructions in the warranty provided with this product.

Always identify your cleaner by model number when requesting information or ordering replacement parts.

•Low voltage circuit incorrectly installed

•Short low voltage terminals at power unit, if unit starts, there is a problem with the low volt circuit.

•Defective wall valve

•Insert the hose into another inlet valve. If unit turns on, the inlet valve may be defective. Replace inlet valve.

•Problem with low voltage circuit

•Turn on central vacuum with ON/ OFF switch located on the unit.

If the unit starts, the problem is in the wiring to the inlet valve, the 24 Volt transformer or the relay.

Contact your local Hoover Factory Service Center.

Problem: Suction low

Possible cause

Possible solution

•Filter dirty

•Clean filter

•Obstruction in hose, piping or cleaning tools

•Determine if the blockage is in the hose or piping by inserting hose in an inlet valve. Check to see if there is any suction at another inlet valve by opening the cover. If there is, plug the hose into the second wall valve and feel the end of the hose to see if there is regular suction.

If the blockage is in the hose, insert a long blunt item, such as a broom handle, to clear the block- age.

If the blockage is in the pipe, insert hose into wall valve and place hand over end of hose to cut off air flow. Place your hand on and off the end of hose rapid- ly several times. If this does not clear the blockage, contact your local Hoover Factory Service Center.

Check tools, wands, etc. for blockages.

•System tubing and/or wall valves incorrectly installed

•Check to make sure all inlet valves are properly closed.

•Dirt container full or misposi- tioned

•Check to see if the dirt container needs to be emptied.

Check to see if the dirt bucket is properly positioned and securely clamped shut.
