Grounding Instructions
Warranty
ORECK MANUFACTURING COMPANY: (ORECK gives you the
following limited warranty for this product only if it was originally
purchased for use, not resale, from ORECK or an ORECK Authorized
Retail Dealer.)
L CAUTION L
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current
to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having 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.
ORECK will repair or replace, free of charge, to the original purchaser,
any part which is found to be defective in material or workmanship
within one (1) year, (5 year motor) of the date of original purchase.
PAD DRIVER, CARPET BONNET, LAMBS WOOL BONNET,
BRUSHES, PADS and other parts subject to normal wear are not
covered by this limited warranty.
L WARNING L
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in
a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified 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 fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This limited warranty does not apply to any part subjected to accident,
abuse, or alteration, misuse, damage caused by fire or act of God, the
use of voltages other than indicated on the serial number plate of this
product or service of this product by other than ORECK or an ORECK
Factory Authorized Service Center.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a
grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary
adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in sketch B may be used
to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle if a properly grounded outlet
is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The
green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must
be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place
by a metal screw.
ORECK does not authorize any person or representative to assume or
grant any other warranty obligation with the sale of this product.
ORECK’S limited warranty is valid only if you retain proof of purchase
from ORECK or an ORECK Authorized Retail Dealer for this product. If
you purchase this product from any other source, your purchase is “AS
IS,” which means ORECK grants you no warranty, and that you, not
ORECK, assume the entire risk of the quality and performance of this
product, including the entire cost of any necessary servicing or repairs
of any defects.
ORECK’S liability for damages to you for any costs whatsoever arising
out of this statement of limited warranty shall be limited to the amount
paid for this product at the time of original purchase, and ORECK shall
not be liable for any direct, indirect, consequential or incidental
damages arising out of the use or inability to use this product.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by
the Canadian Electrical Code.
