Installation
Unit Installation
Using the wall bracket provided with your
vacuum cleaner, secure the unit to the wall
(gure 1), at a height allowing easy access
to change the bag or empty the canister.
Contrary to all other connections in the
piping system, do not glue the last tting
to your unit. CycloVac central vacuums
are equipped with an adjustable air intake
valve (gure 2), which does not require
glue. An air-tight t is obtained with the
screw-type adjustment on the tting itself.

12 Installation
INSTALLING INLETS
When installing your vacuum inlets, we recommend that the principle of electric
polarity be taken into account. Ensure that the wire connected onto contact A on
inlet 1 is the same as that connected to contact A on inlet 2, and so on. Do not
cross, reverse or interchange wires.

14 Installation
There should be an electric outlet within 1 meter (3 feet) of your central 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.

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 nd that installing your vacuum cleaner is too difcult, 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 specied norms could alter or invalidate the warranty.

Installation
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 qualied electrician or service technician 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 t the outlet; have a proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
120V MODELS
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120V circuit, and has
a grounded plug. Make sure that the appliance is connected
to an outlet having the same conguration as the plug. No
adaptor should be used with this appliance.
220V/240V MODELS
This appliance is for use on a circuit that has a nominal rating of more than 120V
and that is factory-equipped with a specic cord and plug to permit connection to
a proper electric circuit. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet
having the same conguration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this
appliance. If the appliance must be reconnected for use on a different type of
electric circuit, the reconnections should be done by a qualied service technician.

Please verify that your central vacuum is properly connected to the piping system
and to a grounded electrical outlet, and that the low voltage wires are connected
to the unit (see pages 14 to 16). Then, read the complete owner’s manual and
proceed with a quick verication of your unit’s installation:

To start your central vacuum, simply insert the hose in the vacuum inlet of your
choice. Please ensure that the tab on the hose end is properly lined up with the
slot in the inlet opening (gure 7). If your hose handle has an integrated on/off
switch, simply slide the switch to the “on” position.
Do not try to open another inlet while your system is in operation, as it may
damage the inlet’s rubber seal.
