2.4 HEPA Filter Maintenance
We recommend changing the HEPA fi lter after the
dirt bucket has been emptied three times, or after
being used for one year, whichever comes fi rst. To
replace your HEPA fi lter:
1.
Open the HEPA fi lter door with button located
on the side, center of door.
2. Press down on tab at top of fi lter and discard
the entire fi lter.
3. Insert the HEPA fi lter by inserting the two
plastic tabs at bottom of fi lter cartridge into the cavity of the HEPA fi lter. Snap into place (refer to
Figure 9).
4. Close HEPA door gently, without force. If the door does not close easily, re-insert fi lter.
3.0 TROUBLE-SHOOTING
3.1 Automatic Shut-Off
If the central vacuum power unit is unintentionally left ON for a prolonged period, the operating
system has an automatic 30-minute shut-off timer. The shut-off timer will automatically reset
when the system is turned on by the hose or power unit.
To protect the power unit from over heating, the operating system has a thermal protection shut-
off and will automatically turn OFF the vacuum. In the event an automatic shut-off occurs, a
motor fault icon will appear on the power unit screen and a red fan blade will fl ash on the hose
handle. Please allow the unit to cool for approximately 5 minutes so it can reset itself. After
5-minutes, turn the power unit on. If the power unit does not turn ON, let the unit cool down for
an additional 5 minutes. If the power unit still does not operate, please contact your authorized
dealer/distributor.
3.2 Partial Loss of Suction
1. Empty dirt bucket. Inspect fi lter.
2. Turn ON vacuum and check the suction at each inlet. If suction is not the same at each inlet, the
line is partially clogged. To locate the clog, start with the inlet closest to the vacuum and check the
suction. Continue checking each successive inlet until you locate the inlet where a suction loss is
occurring. The clog will be between that inlet and the previous one checked. To remove the clog,
call your local authorized dealer/distributor.
3.3 Total Loss of Suction (with motor running)
1. Check for power light on screen.
2. If you have good suction at the unit, but no suction in the hose then there is a clog in the pipes or
hose. To remove the clog, call your local authorized dealer/distributor.
3.4 Motor Refuses to Start
1. Ensure central vacuum is plugged into an electrical outlet.
2. Check for power.
3. If problem persists, call your authorized local dealer/distributor.
