Thermal protector

An internal thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating.

When the thermal protector acti- vates, the cleaner will stop run- ning. If this happens, proceed as

follows:

1.Turn the cleaner OFF and dis- connect it from the electrical out- let.

2.Check secondary and final fil- ters for dirt accumulation.

3.Refer to “Clearing blockages” section.

4.When cleaner is unplugged and the motor cools for 30 min- utes, the thermal protector automati- cally resets and cleaning may con- tinue.

If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner may need ser- vicing (see “Service” section).
