MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM
Thermal Protector - Suction Motor
This vacuum cleaner has a thermal
protector which automatically trips to
protect the vacuum cleaner suction motor.
If a clog prevents the normal flow of air
to the motor, the thermal protector turns
the motor off automatically. This allows
the motor to cool in order to prevent
possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.
To reset thermal protectors: Turn the
vacuum cleaner off and unplug the power
cord from the outlet to allow the vacuum
cleaner to cool and the thermal
protectors to reset.
CAUTION
Always return the vacuum cleaner to the
upright position before using the hose
and attachments. Failure to do so may
result in overheating of the agitator
motors and can cause the thermal
protectors to trip.
Check for and remove clogs, and replace
bag if necessary. See REMOVING CLOGS
Section (Page 19-20). Also check and
replace any dogged filters. Wait
approximately 50 minutes before
restarting vacuum cleaner.
