Thermal Cut-out

This vacuum cleaner is fitted with a thermal cut-out device which automatically turns off the cleaner to prevent overheating of
the motor. When this happens, 

disconnect the cleaner from the mains socket

and check the dust bag as it may be full or

clogged with fine dust. Check for any other obstructions.
After replacing the dust bag or removing the obstruction, 

leave the vacuum cleaner to cool down until the thermal cut-out

resets after approximately 40 minutes.
Important: The thermal cut-out will not reset if the unit is not disconnected from the mains socket.

Mains lead
IMPORTANT:

If the mains lead becomes damaged, it must be repaired by Panasonic, authorised Service Centre or a qualified
person in order to avoid any hazard.
