Thermal protector An internal thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the motor will stop running. If this happens, proceed as follows: 1. Turn the switch off and unplug the unit from electrical outlet. Allow the unit to cool for 30 minutes before restarting. 2. Empty the dirt cup and clean the filter (see "Dirt cup" section). 3. Check final filter for dirt accumulation. 4. When the motor cools, the thermal protector automatically resets and cleaning may continue. If the thermal protector continues to activate, your cleaner may need servicing (see "Service" section). 4.
