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
over heating problem (ie. Full dirt cup,
dirty filters or clog).
3.
Fix the problem by following the steps
in the Operations or Maintenance and
Care section.
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 Care or
visit the website.
