This vacuum must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This vacuum is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
This vacuum is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a
grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in Figure B. Grounding. Make sure that the vacuum is
connected to an outlet having the same conguration as the
plug. No adapter should be used with this vacuum.
WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualied 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 vacuum. If it will not t the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

3. Circuit Breaker Protector
Your vacuum cleaner comes equipped with a Manual Reset Circuit Breaker Protector. This circuit
breaker is designed to protect your vacuum cleaner from damage due to an obstruction in the agitator
or motor fan. Should this situation occur, the circuit breaker protector will safely shut off your vacuum
cleaner to avoid any potential damage.
To reset the circuit breaker:
CAUTION: Unplug the vacuum cleaner before servicing.
1. Check for problem (obstruction or clog in agitator or motor fan.)
2. Correct problem.
3. Locate “tripped” breaker. It is the small black rocker switch located on the back side of the nozzle
housing. (Fig. A)
4. Push the reset button.
5. Plug vacuum cleaner in and begin using again.
