Lubrication

The motor is equipped with bear-
ings that contain sufficient lubrica-
tion for the life of the motor. The
addition of lubricant could cause
damage. Therefore, do not add
lubricant to motor bearings.
The agitator brush roll is equipped
with two ball bearings that should
be lubricated periodically by a
Hoover Sales and Service Center or
an Authorized Hoover Warranty
Service Dealer.

Thermal protector

An internal thermal protector has
been designed into your cleaner to
protect it from overheating.
When the thermal protector acti-
vates, the cleaner will stop run-
ning. If this happens, proceed as
follows:
1. Turn the cleaner OFF and dis-
connect it from the electrical out-
let.
2. Check secondary and final fil-
ters for dirt accumulation.
3. Refer to "Clearing blockages"
section.
4. When cleaner is unplugged
and the motor cools for 30 min-
utes, the thermal protector automati-
cally resets and cleaning may con-
tinue.
If the thermal protector continues to
activate after following the above
steps, your cleaner may need ser-
vicing (see "Service" section).
