SAFETY THERMOSTAT
The system has a safety thermostat. If for any reason the vacuum cleaner should overheat,
the thermostat will automatically shut off the appliance. If this should happen:
1 Press the on/off switch (5) and unplug the appliance from the mains.
2 Check that the air intakes and outlets are not blocked. If they are blocked, get rid of
the cause of the blockage.
3 Empty the dust container (outer and inner chamber). See the next section "Cleaning
and Conservation".
)
If the automatic shut-off was due to the motor overheating, wait for about one hour for
the appliance to cool before turning it on again. You can reduce the waiting time by
placing the appliance in a cool or well-ventilated place to allow the heat to dissipate.
