Thermal motor protection
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 maintenance section of the user guide.
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.
