THERMAL PROTECTOR

This vacuum cleaner has a thermal
protector which automatically trips to
protect the vacuum cleaner suction motor.
If a clog prevents the normal flow of air 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.
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 protectors
to reset.
CAUTION
Always return the vacuum cleaner to
the upright position before using the
hose and attachments. Failure to do
so may result in overheating of the
brushroll motor and can cause the
thermal protectors to trip.
Check for and remove clogs, and empty
the dust cup if necessary. Also check
and clean any clogged filters. Wait
approximately 50 minutes before restarting
vacuum cleaner.
BRUSHROLL RESET
The brushroll has built-in protection against
motor damage should the brushroll jam.
If the brushroll slows down or stops, the
brushroll overload protector shuts off the
brushroll motor and the brushroll indicator
light emits a red light. The vacuum cleaner
suction motor will continue to run.

Light
To correct problem: Turn off and unplug
vacuum cleaner, remove obstruction, then
turn on the vacuum cleaner again. The
brushroll indicator light will be off.
NOTE
: Once the brushroll motor shuts
down, clear jam from brushroll and then
restart the vacuum cleaner. If the problem
persists, contact the vacuum cleaner help
line for assistance.

SUCTION CONTROL

To assist with push/pull force of the
vacuum on surfaces like thick carpet, the
suction control valve can be opened to
help reduce suction. Note that for best
cleaning results, the suction control valve
must be fully closed.
· Slide to "Min" to open the suction control
and decrease suction. Opening control
decreases suction for draperies and
lightweight rugs.
· Slide to "Max" to close the suction control
and increase suction. Closing control
increases suction for upholstery and
carpets.
