Your Riccar vacuum cleaner comes equipped with a Manual Reset Thermal Fuse Protector.
This thermal protector is designed to protect your vacuum cleaner from overheating due to
a restriction in airflow (i.e. clogged hose, operating the vacuum without a bag). Should this
situation occur, the thermal fuse protector will safely shut off the vacuum cleaner to avoid
any potential damage.

NOTE: To determine it was the thermal fuse protector that turned off your vacuum
cleaner, please refer to the vacuum cleaner's headlight. If the headlight is on while the motor
is off, then the thermal fuse protector did safely shut down the motor. If both the headlight
and motor are off, then there is some reason other than the thermal protector (i.e. pulled
plug) your vacuum is off.

To reset the thermal fuse:

. Unplug the vacuum cleaner
2. Check for problem – over–filled bag, clog in hose, clogged filters, etc.
3. Correct problem
4. Locate "tripped" fuse – the small white button located on the bottom of the back side of

the main body (roughly one inch to the right of the left wheel)

5. Using a pencil, paper clip or other pointed object, push the reset button in
6. Plug vacuum cleaner in and resume use

Please contact your Authorized Riccar Retailer with any questions.
