PERFORMANCE FEATURES
WARNING
Personal injury Hazard
Always turn off and unplug the vacuum
cleaner before cleaning the agitator area
as agitator may suddenly restart. Failure
to do so can result in personal injury.
THERMAL PROTECTOR
This vacuum cleaner has a thermal
protector which automatically trips to
protect the vacuum cleaner from
overheating. 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 correct problem: Turn the vacuum
cleaner off and unplug the power cord
from the outlet to allow the vacuum
cleaner to cool and the thermal protector
to reset. Check for and remove clogs, if
necessary. Also check and replace any
clogged filters. Wait approximately fifty
(50) minutes and plug the vacuum
cleaner in and turn back on to see if the
motor protector has reset.
MOTOR PROTECTOR
This vacuum cleaner
also has a motor
protector by-pass
valve which prevents
motor overheating
and damage. The
valve opens to
provide cooling air
when a clog prevents
normal air flow to the
Motor
Protector
Dust
Cup
vacuum cleaner suction motor. You will
notice a change of sound as air rushes
through the valve opening.
To correct problem: Empty the dust cup and
clean the primary filter and pre-filter. Check
for and remove clogs, and empty dust cup if
necessary. See CLOG REMOVAL (page 16).
NOTE: Do not block motor protector.
NOTE: The motor protector may open when
using attachments or when cleaning new
carpet due to reduced airflow caused by
the attachments themselves or by new
carpet.
