Vacuum turns off on its own�
There are several possible reasons for the vacuum turning off on its own, including blockages, ION
Power Pack issues, and overheating. If vacuum turns off on its own, perform the following steps:
1. Check LED lights on ION Power Pack to see if it needs to be recharged. If power pack does not
need charging, turn off vacuum and remove power pack.
2. Empty dust cup and clean filters (see Maintenance section).
3. Check wand, accessories, and inlet openings and remove any blockages.
4. Allow unit and ION Power Pack to cool for at least 45 minutes, until it returns to room
temperature.
5. Return power pack to vacuum and press Power button.
Note: If vacuum still does not operate properly, contact Customer Service at 1-800-798-7398.
