THERMAL PROTECTOR
This vacuum clectner 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 motor off
automatically. This allows the motor to
cool in order to prevent possible damage
to the vacuum cJeaner.

vacuum cleaner to allow the vacuum
cleaner to cool and the thermal protector
to reset. Check for and remove clogs, if
necessary. See REMOVING CLOGS (page
19). Also check and replace any clogged
filters. Wait approximately thirty (30)
minutes and plug the vacuum cleaner in
and turn back on to check if the thermal
protector has reset.

shown in
REMOVING
CLOGS (page
19).
