POWER-MATE®STORAGE
SOME MODELS
The lower wand has
a "U" shaped flange
in the area where
the power cord
attaches. The base
has a "U" shaped
slot near the front
caster,
The slot allows the
wands and Power-
Mate _ to be stored
with the canister to conserve storage
space. The canister must be stored on
end for this feature to be used.
The wand will slip out of the slot as it is lift-
ed up for use and will slide into the slot as it
is lowered for storage.
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.
