extreme back to avoid any problems that may occur.
HEAT PROTECTION SYSTEM
This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the motor from overheating. If the
vacuum cleaner suddenly shuts off, push the (ON/OFF) switch to the (OFF) position and
unplug the cleaner. Check the vacuum cleaner for a possible source of overheating such as
a full dirt compartment or clogged filters. If these conditions are found, empty the dirt
compartment and clean the filters (see pages 10, 11) or replace if necessary (see page 13).
To maintain the best performance of your vacuum cleaner, we recommend emptying the dirt
compartment before the dirt reaches the "Max Fill Line" and clean the filters.
