Thermal Cut Off

This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of motor overheating. If the cleaner suddenly 
shuts off, push the on/off switch off (0) and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for a possible source of overheating such as 
a full dustbag, a blocked hose or clogged fi lter. If these conditions are found, fi x them and wait at least 30 minutes before at-
tempting to use the cleaner. After the 30 minute period, plug the cleaner back in and push the on/off switch on (l). If the cleaner 
still does not run, please call Electrolux Customer Care on 08706 055055.
