Fig.20 NOTE: Make sure the RUG / FLOOR selector is set to either the extreme front or the extreme back to avoid any problems that may occur. HEAT PROTECTION SYSTEM This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the motor from overheating. If the vacuum cleaner suddenly shuts off, push the (ON/OFF) switch to the (OFF) position and unplug the cleaner. Check the vacuum cleaner for a possible source of overheating such as a full dirt compartment or clogged filters. If these conditions are found, empty the dirt compartment and clean the filters (see pages 10, 11) or replace if necessary (see page 13). To maintain the best performance of your vacuum cleaner, we recommend emptying the dirt compartment before the dirt reaches the "Max Fill Line" and clean the filters. 10
