• A Thermal Protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from
overheating. When the thermal protector activates the cleaner will stop running.
If this happens proceed as follows:
1. Turn cleaner OFF and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
2. Check fullness of filter bag; change if needed.
3. Inspect and remove blockage along the dirt path. This blockage may occur
at the: nozzle inlet, hose, hose tube, dirt tube, and filter bag inlet.
4. When cleaner is unplugged and motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal
protector will deactivate and cleaning may continue.
If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your
cleaner needs servicing.
