The valve opens to provide cooling air when a clog prevents normal air flow to the vacuum cleaner suction motor. You will notice a change of sound as air rushes through the valve opening. To correct problem: ➢ Empty the dust cup and clean the primary filter and pre-filter. ➢ Check for and remove clogs, and empty dust cup if necessary. NOTE: The motor protector may open when using attachments or when cleaning new carpet due to reduced airflow caused by the attachments themselves or by new carpet. Thermal Protector This vacuum cleaner has an internal thermal protector which automatically trips to protect the vacuum cleaner from overheating. If a clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor, the thermal protector turns the motor off automatically. This allows the motor to cool in order to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner. To correct problem: ➢ Turn the vacuum cleaner off and unplug the mains lead from the mains socket to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool and the thermal protector to reset. ➢ Check for and remove clogs, if necessary (See REMOVING CLOGS p. Also check and replace any clogged filters and empty dust cup, if necessary. ➢ Wait approximately fifty (50) minutes and then plug the vacuum cleaner in and turn back on to see if the motor protector has reset. -9- ROUTINE CARE OF VACUUM CLEANER Removing Clogs The vacuum cleaner creates suction that picks up dirt. Rapidly moving air carries the dirt to the dust cup through the airflow passages. The dust cup lets the air pass through, while it traps the dirt. For best cleaning results, keep the airflow passage open. Check the starred areas occasionally for clogs. Turn off and unplug vacuum cleaner from outlet before checking.
