PERFORMANCE FEATURES
DUAL MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM
Thermal Protector - Motor
This vacuum cleaner has a motor
protector Thermal valve which prevents
motor overheating and damage. 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 cleaner.
To correct problem: Turn the vacuum
cleaner off and unplug the power cord
from the outlet to allow the vacuum
cleaner to cool and the thermal protector
in the suction motor to reset.
Check for and REMOVE CLOGS, and
empty dust bin if necessary. Refer to Clog
Removal section pages 15-16.
Also check and replace any clogged
filters. Wait approximately 40-50 minutes
before restarting vacuum cleaner.

caused by the attachments themselves or
by new carpet lint filling the dust bin
quickly.
