Thermal Cut-Off
This vacuum has a special thermostat that protects the vacuum in case of motor overheating. If the vacuum switches
off, push the switch pedal once and unplug the vacuum. Check the vacuum for a possible source of overheating such
as a full dust cup, a blocked hose or clogged filter. If these conditions are found, fix them and wait
at least 30 minutes before attempting to use the vacuum. After the 30 minute period, plug the vacuum back in and
push the on/off switch On ( I ). If the vacuum still does not run, please call Electrolux Customer Care.

Service Checklist
• If your vacuum will not operate, check the plug
connection, plug fuse and mains fuse.
• Never allow the dust cup to become so full that it
impedes the air flow, thus reducing the cleaning
efficiency of the machine. The character of household
dust and its effect on the air flow through the machine
may vary considerably. Fluffy dust allows air to pass
through readily whereas fine powdery dust or proprietary
cleaning powders pack tightly in the dust cup, offering
greater resistance to air flow and will reduce cleaning
efficiency if the cup becomes overloaded.
• Always store your vacuum and spare dust filters in a
dry place.
• Renew the filter pads three or four times a year. This is
essential to ensure continued high filtration of dust
particles.
• Sucking up such items as stockings, clippings of cloth,
sizeable pieces of paper, wrappings from cigarette
packets or sweets etc., may block the hose. Electrolux
regrets that the clearing of blocked hoses cannot be
regarded as service that can be given free of charge,
under the guarantee. Should a blockage occur, first
disconnect the vacuum from the electricity supply, refer
to section headed “How to Clear a Blochkage.” If these
operations are not successful, contact Electrolux
Customer HELPLINE 08445 614614. Calls to this
number will be charged at 5p per minute at all times from
a BT Landline.
• Never pick up hot cinders or lighted cigarette ends.
• Make certain that your vacuum does not come into
contact with water or any other liquid. It is not
designed as a wet pick up vacuum, and must never
be used on damp carpets or wet floors.
Important – in the event of the mains supply cable of this
vacuum requiring replacement, we recommend that this
be carried out by Electrolux Service Staff.
