Thermal protector
an internal thermal protector has been
designed into your cleaner to protect it from
overheating. When the thermal protector
activates, the main vacuum motor will stop
operating. If this happens, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the cleaner off (O) and unplug from
electrical outlet.
2. Check the upper tank area, pre-motor filter
and post-motor filter for dirt accumulation.
3. Refer to the "Clearing clogs" section above.
4. When the motor cools for approximately
30 minutes, the thermal protector
automatically resets and cleaning may
continue. If the thermal protector continues
to activate after following the above steps,
your cleaner may need servicing.
notE: the thermal protector controls the
main vacuum motor only, not the brush
motor. If the thermal protector activates,
the brush will continue to operate normally;
however, there will be no suction.
