Thermal motor protection
An internal thermal protector has been
designed into your cleaner to protect
it from overheating. When the thermal
protector activates, the main vacuum
motor will stop operating. If this
happens, proceed as follows.
1.
Turn the cleaner OFF and unplug from
electrical outlet.
2.
Check the cleaner for the source of overheating
problem (ie. Full dirt cup, dirty filters or clog).
3.
Fix the problem by following the steps in
the maintenance section of the user guide.
4.
When the motor cools for approximately 30
minutes, the thermal protector will reset and
cleaning may continue. If the cleaner will not
turn on or the thermal protector continues to
activate, your cleaner may need servicing.
Call BISSELL Consumer Services or visit the
website.
