thermal motor protection

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 and unplug from
electrical outlet.
2. Check the cleaner for the source of
overheating problem (i.e. full dirt cup,
dirty filters or clog).
3. Fix the problem by following the steps in
the maintenance section of the user guide.
4. When the motor cools for approximately
30 minutes, the thermal protector
automatically resets and cleaning may
continue. If the cleaner will not turn on or
the thermal protector continues to activate,
your cleaner may need servicing. Call
BISSELL Consumer Services or visit the
website to locate an authorized Service
Center.
note: the thermal protector controls
the main vacuum motor only, not the
brush motor. if the thermal protec-
tor activates, the brush will continue
to operate normally; however, there
will be no suction.
