Checking For Blockages - Euro-Pro Shark NR120C 31 Manuel Du Propriétaire

Checking for Blockages

Occasionally the vacuum may become blocked by a build up of debris and the Blockage
Indicator light will illuminate. It is important to locate where the blockage is and carefully
remove it without causing damage to yourself, the unit or anything else. Perform the following
steps to try to find the blockage.
Beware of sharp objects when clearing blockages.
Damages caused while clearing or attempting to clear blockages are
not covered under your product's limited warranty.
Replace parts securely before using again.
Blockages may cause your vacuum to overheat and shut down. If so,
clear the blockages, then follow the instructions for Resetting the
Motor Thermostat.
Unplug the vacuum
before checking for
blockages.
