MOTOR PROTECTION

SYSTEM

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 to allow the motor to cool in

order to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.

To correct problem: If this occurs, 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 clean/replace any clogged filters. Wait approximately thirty (30) minutes and plug the vacuum cleaner in and turn back on to see if the motor protector has reset. The motor protector will net reset if the vacuum cleaner is net turned off even if the vacuum cleaner has cooled down.

Motor Protector

This vacuum cleaner has a

motor protector Motor by-pass valve

which automatically opens to provide cooling air to the motor when a

clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor. If the by-pass valve opens to prevent motor overheating and possible damage to the vacuum cleaner, you will notice a change of sound as air rushes through the valve opening.

Note: Do not block motor protector.

To correct problem: See the TROUBLE- SHOOTING chart.

Note: The motor protector may open when using attachments or when cleaning new carpet, due to reduced airflow by the attachments themselves or by new carpet

fuzz filling the dust bin quickly. See the

TROUBLESHOOTING section.
