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.

protector which automatically trips to
protect the agitator motor. The thermal
protector turns the motor off
automatically. This allows the motor to
cool in order to prevent possible damage
to the vacuum cleanen
To reset thermal protector: Turn the
vacuum cleaner off and unplug the power
cord from the outlet to allow the vacuum
cleaner to cool and the thermal protector
to reset.
CAUTION
Always return the vaccum cleaner to the
upright position before using the hose
and attachments. Failure to do so may
result in overheating of the agitator
motor and can cause the thermal
protector to trip.
Check for and remove clogs, and replace
bag if necessary. See CLOG REMOVAL
section. Also check and replace any
clogged filters. Wait approximately 40-
50 minutes before restarting vacuum
cleaner.

This vacuum cleaner has a motor
protector by-pass valve which prevents
motor overheating and damage. The

clog prevents normal air flow to the
vacuum cleaner suction motor. You will

and clean the primary filter. If using
attachments, adjust to allow for greater
air flow.

when using attachments or when cleaning
new carpet due to reduced airflow
caused by the attachments themselves or
by new carpet lint filling the dust cup
quickly.
Note: Do not block motor protector°
