3.Check Upper Tank for build up or clogs.

4.Remove the Upper Tank and check the suction inlet for a clog.

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

When the thermal protector activates, the main vacuum motor will stop operating. If this happens, proceed as follows:

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

2.Check the Upper Tank area, Pre-Motor Filter and Post-Motor Filter for dirt accumulation.

3.Refer to the "Clearing Clogs" section.

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 Services, or visit the website.

Note: The thermal protector controls the main vacuum motor only, not the brush motor. If the thermal protector activates, the brush will continue to operate normally; however, there will be no suction.
