MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM
Motor Protector
This vacuum cleaner has a motor protector
by-pass valve which automatically
opens to
provide cooling air to the vacuum cleaner
motor when a clog prevents the normal
flow of air to the motor. If the by_pass valve
opens to prevent motor overheating and
possible damage to the vacuum cleaner,
you will notice a change of sound as air
rushes through the valve opening.
To correct problem: See the TROUBLE-
SHOOTING section.
NOTE: The motor
protector may open
when using
attachments or
when cleaning new
carpet, due to
reduced airflow
caused by the
attachments
themselves or by
new carpet lint filling

This vacuum cleaner has a thermal
protector, which automatically trips to
protect both the vacuum cleaner and the

prevents the normal flow of air to the motor,
the thermal protector turns the motor off

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 to reset.
Check for and remove dogs, if necessary.
See page 19, CLOG REMOVAL section.
Also check and replace any dogged filters.
Wait approximately thirty (30) minutes and
plug the vacuum cleaner In and tum back
on to see if the motor protector has reset.
