Is there a working electricity supply to the cleaner?
Check with another electrical product.
A thermal cut out switches off the cleaner automatically to prevent overheating if the
cleaner is used when the dust container is over full, or the filters require cleaning,
or there is a blockage. If this should happen switch off and unplug the machine from
the electricity supply. To correct the fault please refer to sections 12-18.
Is the dust container overfilled? (refer to sections 12 and 13)
Is the hose blocked? (refer to section 17)
Is there a blockage in the cleaner base? (refer to section 18)
Are the filters blocked? (refer to sections 14, 15 and 16)
Are the brushes rotating? (refer to section 19)
