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 disconnect it from the electrical outlet.

2.Check filters for dirt accumula- tion.

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 serv- icing (see “Service” section).
