Motor Thermostat
IMPORTANT: This unit is equipped with a motor

protection thermostat. If for some reason the
vacuum cleaner should overheat, the thermostat
will automatically turn the unit off. Should this occur:
• Push the on/off button once.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source.
• Check the source of overheating problem (i.e. clogged
hose or filter).
• If clogged hose or filter is found, unclog the hose and
replace the filters.
• Wait at least 45 minutes before attempting to reuse
the vacuum cleaner.
• After unit has cooled down for 45 minutes, plug in the
cleaner and push the on/off button. The vacuum should
start again.
• If the vacuum still does not start, contact Vax Care
0870 606 1248.
Cleaning & Changing the Belt

changing the filters or performing maintenance/
troubleshooting checks. Occasionally, the power nozzle
drive belt will require changing (the frequency will depend
on the frequency of use).
Turn the vacuum cleaner off and unplug from the power
supply.
Turn the vacuum cleaner upside down on a flat, level
surface.
