THERMAL PROTECTOR
Thisvacuum cleaner has a thermal

cool in order to prevent possible damage
to the vacuum cleaner.

cleaner to cool and the thermal protector
to reset. Check for and remove clogs, if
necessary. See REMOVING CLOGS (page
20). Also check and replace any clogged
filters. Wait approximately thirty (30)
minutes and plug the vacuum cleaner in
and turn back on to check if the thermal
protector has reset.
