OPERATION

Inlet valves

Hose use and care

In the unlikely event that something causes the power
unit to turn on, or if the power unit is unintentionally left
on, your central vacuum has been developed with a motor

damage to the motor.

To restart, remove the hose from the wall inlet and

reinsert - the power unit should come back on.

BM165 and BM185

Your central vacuum system starts and stops
automatically. To turn the system on, plug the

The hose handle may be equipped with an

start and stop of the power unit while the
hose is plugged into an inlet valve. This allows
you to control the system without unplugging
the hose.

Electrical Fault Protection for BM262,
BM265, and BM285

Certain central vacuum system models feature an overload
protection (circuit breaker) which can be reset should the

motor be overloaded causing the circuit to open. If this
occurs and the power unit fails to operate, depress the
reset button which is located on the side of the power unit.
If the protector continues to trip; contact the authorized
service center nearest you.

When you have chosen a mounting location, you can
install the mounting bracket using the enclosed screws.
Drill the holes and tighten the screws to hang the power
unit. Please make sure to consider the wall type when
attaching the mounting bracket. Align the power unit

wall. Securely tape each joint using duct or electrical tape.
DO NOT USE GLUE. Attach the exhaust pipe to the motor
exhaust if exhausting outdoors. Connect the two low
voltage wires located on the backside of the power unit to
the wires installed with the main trunk line. It is recom-
mended you secure the connection with wire nuts. Be
certain to comply with local electrical codes and regula-
tions. Plug the unit into a regular electrical outlet. You are
now ready to check the installation of the unit:

The central vacuum system employs features that monitor
the following operation levels: AC voltage, currenty draw
voltage, current draw and board temperature. If the
voltage is below or above standard operating voltage,
high current or locked rotar, the power unit will not

blink or go out until the problem ceases. If the circuit
board reaches an elevated temperature, the power unit

problem persists, contact your authorized dealer or
distirbutor.

Plugging the hose into an inlet valve completes a
low-voltage (24-volt) electrical circuit which activates a

unit, unplug the hose from the inlet. When unplugging the
hose, hold the inlet cover open for a few seconds to allow
suction to decrease and protect the inner seal.

The hose should be used and stored at temperatures
above 5

°C. When not in use, hang the hose on the hanger

supplied. If the hose becomes clogged, turn on the power
unit using the manual switch and seal the extra air-space
by holding the hose firmly and blocking the end. This

An obstruction in the inlet valve may cause the power
