Lubrication

The motor is equipped with bearings which contain sufficient lubrication for the life of the motor. The addition of lubricant could cause damage. Do not add lubricant to motor bearings.

Thermal protector

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

When the thermal protector activates, the cleaner will stop running. If this happens, proceed as follows:

1.Turn the cleaner OFF and discon- nect it from the electrical outlet.

2.Check dirt cup pre-filter, HEPA car- tridge filter and secondary and final fil- ters for dirt accumulation.

3.Refer to “Clearing blockages” sec- tion.

4.When cleaner is unplugged and the motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal protector automatically resets and cleaning may continue.

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