Using the mounting plates provided with
your vacuum system, secure the units to
the wall (gure 1). The main unit should be
installed at a height allowing easy access
to change the bag or empty the canister.
Unit Installation
If you install your system in series,
please follow these instructions to
properly install the mounting plates:
If you install your system in parallel,
please follow these instructions to
properly install the mounting plates:

Unit Installation
Contrary to all other connections in the
piping system, do not glue the last tting
to the main unit. Our 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.

10 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.

12 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 person 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.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 220V circuit, and has
a grounded plug (gure 3). 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.
There should be an electric outlet within 1 meter (3 feet) of the main 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.
DEDICATED* GROUNDED CIRCUIT
• North America: 15 A
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.

Hose Hook-up & Inlets
Before operating your central vacuum…
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 8 to 13). Then, read the complete
owner’s manual and proceed with a quick verication of your unit’s
installation :

• Checkrubbersealsineachvacuuminlet.
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 8). 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.

We recommend changing these lters after three
bag replacements or canister emptying. The LCD
monitor will indicate when to change the lters.
These indications are provided by an electronic
timing board only as a reference guide.
To do so:
1. Unlatch the opening on the carbon lter case
and gently ip it upward (gure 9).
2. Remove the used lter, and discard (gure 10).
3. Insert the new lter. When doing so, please
ensure that the arrow printed on the lter itself
points outwards. (gure 11).
4. Close casing opening, and latch.

Maintenance
Motor
Please note that our motors do not require lubrication. Each motor contains two
carbon brushes that will wear normally, and may eventually require replacement.
For warranty purposes, replacement should be done by an authorized dealer.
Brush life is affected by hours of use, frequency of start-ups and shut-downs,
humidity, altitude, and temperature. In order to avoid damage to the unit’s motor,
brushes should be replaced before they are completely worn-out. We therefore
recommend that you have your unit and motors inspected by an authorized dealer
every 5-6 years.

Dirt Receptacle
Occasional maintenance of the dirt receptacle is necessary to ensure constant,
lasting performance. We recommend that it be emptied at least every season,
depending on frequency of use. To empty the dust receptacle, disconnect your
vacuum cleaner from its power source. Then, release the two clamps and empty
the recipient. Reseal the receptacle in place.

bag 20° (gure 14 - B) to ensure tabs on
bag adaptor are no longer aligned with the
slots in the bag collar.
5. Replace dust receptacle and seal by
latching both clips.
Use only genuine Trovac replacement bags.
Failure to do so could void the warranty on
your vacuum unit.
