Operating the cleaner

ThERMAl PROTEcTOR

This vacuum cleaner has a thermal protector which automatically trips to protect the
vacuum cleaner from overheating. If a clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor,
the thermal protector turns the suction motor off automatically. This allows the suction
motor to cool in order to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.
Turn off and unplug vacuum cleaner to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool and the
thermal protector to reset. Check for and remove clogs, if necessary. Also check
and replace any clogged filters. Wait approximately 1 hour and plug the vacuum
cleaner in and turn back on to see if the suction motor protector has reset.
Even though the suction motor is shut off, the floor brush may not stop. Turn off
the brush roll switch before inspecting the cleaner.
CAUTION
Do not power on without the dust bin and the exhaust filter in their place.
Otherwise, the suction motor will be shut off
because of the thermal protector to protect
the vacuum cleaner from overheating. If this
happens, turn off the switch and unplug
the cleaner to allow the vacuum cleaner to
cool. Wait approximately 1 hour and plug the
vacuum cleaner in and turn back on to see if
the suction motor protector has reset.

OVERlOAD PROTEcTOR

The overload protector shuts off the brush motor if the
floor brush becomes obstructed. The floor brush will
stop, but the suction motor will continue to run. To reset
the overload protector, turn the cleaner off and unplug
it. Clear the obstruction from the floor brush area. Use a
pen tip to press down the reset switch. Turn cleaner on
and continue cleaning.
