Before Using Your
Garbage Can & Central Vac System
1. Read all instructions before using your Garbage Can & Central Vac System for
the first time.

before operating.
DO NOT LEAVE UNIT UNATTENDED WHEN IN USE.
WARNING: FULLY ASSEMBLE UNIT BEFORE OPERATING.
Using Your Garbage Can & Central Vac System
as a Traditional Garbage Can
The Garbage Can & Central Vac System can be used as a garbage can and vacuum,
or it can be used solely as a traditional garbage can. To use this multi-purpose unit as a
traditional garbage can, simply leave the unit unplugged from outlet (follow the power
cord storage instructions), and store the vacuum accessories for future use.
No filters are needed for use as a traditional garbage can, however the use of plastic
garbage bags are highly recommended for sanitary reasons. The garbage bin fits 8
gallon garbage bags (not included with unit).
Maintenance & Cleaning Instructions
The following instructions should be followed in order to keep the unit clean and
functioning:
• When garbage bag is full, remove cover and take out garbage bag.
• Should any garbage residue remain in the garbage bin, wipe clean using a damp
cloth, and then wipe dry using a soft, dry cloth. A mild cleaning product may be used
to remove persistent garbage residue.
• Before further use of garbage can, replace with a new garbage bag immediately.
• Wipe outer metal enclosure with a damp cloth. Should any garbage residue remain
on the outer metal enclosure, wipe clean using a damp cloth, and then wipe dry
using a soft, dry cloth. A mild cleaning product may be used to remove persistent
garbage residue.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, THE POWER
CORD MUST BE DISCONNECTED BEFORE REMOVING
THE DUST BAG, THE PRE-MOTOR AND HEPA FILTER, OR
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
CHECKS.
WARNING: NEVER OPERATE THE VACUUM WITHOUT THE
VACUUM BAG AND ALL THE FILTERS IN PLACE
