MOTOR PROTECTION
SYSTEM
This vacuum
has a motor protector
by-
pass valve which automatically
opens to
provide
cooling
air to the motor when a
clog prevents
the normal
flow of air to the
motor. If the by-pass
valve opens to
prevent motor overheating
and possible
damage
to the vacuum,
you will notice a
change
of sound
as air rushes
through
the valve
opening.
NOTE:
Do not
block motor
protector
To correct
problem: See the
TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
chart.
Motor
Protector
NOTE: The motor protector
may open
when
using attachments
or when cleaning
new carpet,
due to reduced
airflow by the
attachments
themselves
or by new carpet
fuzz filling the bag quickly.
See the
TROUBLESHOOTING
section.
PERFORMANCE INDICATOR
SOME
MODELS

with normal
air
flow, the light on the performance
indicator
is off. The light comes
on whenever
the
airflow becomes
blocked.
If that occurs,
check the disposable
dust bag, motor
safety filter and other possible
clog
locations
shown in CLOG
REMOVAL.
To correct
problem: See
the
TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
chart.
NOTE: The
light may
also come on"
when using
attachments,
due to
reduced
airflow
through
the
attachment.
