Thermal protector

An internal thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the suction motor will stop operating. If this happens, proceed as follows:

1.Turn the cleaner OFF (O) and unplug from electrical outlet.

2.Check the end of the hose and tool for blockages and remove if necessary.

3.Check the float stack for clogs. Refer to cleaning instructions above.

4.When the motor cools for approximately 30 minutes, the thermal protector automatically resets and cleaning may continue. If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner may need servicing. Call BISSELL Consumer Care or visit the website.
