IN USE
When in use the power indicator turns green. The 4 progressive performance
bars will appear. A normally functioning unit should have all 4 performance
bars lit. If there are consistently less than 2 bars, you should check for the
problem. Possible issues causing the performance bars to lessen could be:
1. Blocked suction at the hose end
2. Clogged pipe in system
3. Air restrictive tool being used, such as a crevice tool
4. Full dirt receptacle
5. Clogged fi ltration system
EMPTY DIRT RECEPTACLE
Every 25 hours of use (approximately 6 months) the empty dirt receptacle
indicator will fl ash on the screen. This is an indication to check the dirt
receptacle and empty it. Since this is time based, you may fi nd the dirt
receptacle too empty or too full. If you have pets, a workshop or other
factors that cause waste more frequently, you may wish to check the
dirt receptacle more frequently.
Once the dirt receptacle is emptied, you push the return button to reset
the 25 hours timer. If your power supply is interrupted, or otherwise
unplugged, the empty dirt receptacle indicator will keep a memory of its
previous status and continue life measure.
To manually reset the Empty Dirt Receptacle indicator, simply press the
button lining up with the Enter symbol, and hold for 10 seconds.
LIFE METER
The life meter has 8 bars on it. Once these bars are depleted your unit will
continue to run, although it is strongly recommended to take it to your local
service center to be inspected and serviced. A life bar will deplete every
65 hours of vacuum use, meaning your central vacuum will have a long life
of service to you. The life meter can be reset only by your service technician.
If your power supply is interrupted, or otherwise unplugged, the life meter
will keep a memory of its previous status and continue life measure.
SERVICE INDICATOR
If there is a system fault, or malfunction with your power unit, the service indicator
will fl ash. Upon seeing this symbol, we recommend that you turn the power
unit off, unplug the power supply for 10 seconds and then plug it back in. If the
service symbol is still on the screen, we recommend that you call for service.
This symbol may appear due to the following faults:
• Motor problem
• Electronic problem
• Voltage or current problem (too high or too low)
• Power unit not responding to electronics

UTILITY VALVE
The utility valve is similar to an Inlet valve, but is located near the power
unit. This valve is present for your convenience, as it can help clean up
any dirt spilled close to the central vacuum.
OVERHEATING PROTECTION

OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The central vacuum system employs features that monitor the following operating
levels: AC voltage, and current draw. If the voltage is below or above standard
operating voltage, high current draw or locked rotor, the power unit will not
operate. In this case the On/Off button will blink until the problem ceases or on
the LCD model the screen will fl ash. If problems persist; contact your authorized
dealer or distributor. The power unit requires 30 minutes to cool down.

DIAGNOSTICS AND MAINTENANCE
Reduced airfl ow or suction indicates the central vacuum system is not
operating at maximum effi ciency. If the dirt receptacle is full and the fi lter
is clogged, no air can pass through the unit and no cleaning can take place.
Instructions provided in the booklet serve as a guide to routine maintenance.
Proper airfl ow or suction can be maintained by keeping the dirt receptacle
and fi lter clean and the plastic tubing and hose free from clogs.
