Electric Connections
There should be an electric outlet within 1 meter (3 feet) of the main vacuum unit.
Once the appliance is installed in a suitable location, connect your central unit to
an electric outlet on a dedicated* grounded circuit. Do not use extension cords or
modify the length of your vacuum cleaner's power cord.
DEDICATED* GROUNDED CIRCUIT
Your central vacuum cleaner has a thermal safety device / circuit breaker to
protect it against any over voltage or electrical defect. If that protection should
fail, contact your authorized dealer.
*Please reserve a circuit breaker dedicated only to the connections for your
central vacuum.
If you find that installing your vacuum cleaner is too difficult, ask your service
center to install it for you. When in doubt, it is better to have the work done by a
professional and ensure that the unit is properly installed. Any installation that
does not comply with the specified norms could alter or invalidate the warranty.
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 that has 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. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
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.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 220 V circuit, and has
a grounded plug (figure 3). Make sure that the appliance is
connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
