THERMAL PROTECTOR

This vacuum has a thermal protector which
automatically trips to protect the vacuum
from overheating. The thermal protector
turns the motor off automatically to allow the

motor to cool in order to prevent possible

damage to the vacuum.

To reset:

Turn off and unplug the vacuum

from the outlet to allow the vacuum to cool.

Check for and remove any clogs. Also
check and replace any clogged filters.
Wait approximately 50 minutes and plug
the vacuum in and turn back on to see if
the thermal protector has reset. In some
cases, the unit may suddenly restart. DO

NOT leave unattended.
