When the thermal protector activates the cleaner will stop running. If this happens proceed as follows: 1. Turn cleaner OFF and unplug it from the electrical outlet. 2. Check fullness of filter bag; change if needed. 3. Inspect and remove blockage along the dirt path. This blockage may occur at the: nozzle, nozzle inlet, wand, nozzle hose, hose, inspection door, filter bag inlet, secondary filter, and final filter. 4. When cleaner is unplugged and motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal protector will deactivate and cleaning may continue. If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner needs servicing. Filter bag: When to Replace ! CAUTION ! Very fine materials, such as face powder or cornstarch, may seal the filter bag and may cause it to burst even though it is partially full of dirt. When the cleaner is used to remove material of this nature, change filter bag often. IMPORTANT All new carpet has loose fibers which can fill the bag quickly while vacuuming. This type of debris does not activate the "Bag Full/Clog" indicator. When the red indicator light for the bag full/clog light illuminates, the following should be checked: • If the filter bag is full; change the filter bag. • If very fine materials have been picked up clogging the bag pores; change the filter bag.
