Note

The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a thermal overload protection
which prevents the motor from overheating.
Remove the suction hose from the hose socket. The overload
protection is deactivated after approx. one and a half hours. If this
fault occurs more than three times, contact the manufacturer or
your dealer.
If the motor stops, switch off the vacuum cleaner and proceed as follows:
➤ Check whether the suction hose is blocked.
Hold the suction hose up and drop a small coin in from above. If the coin
does not fall through the hose, it is blocked. Push the dirt ball through the
hose using a long rod.
➤ Check the dust bag.
If a large amount of dirt which is not household dust (plasterboard dust,
fine sawdust etc.) is vacuumed up, the pores in the dust bag can get
blocked.
Insert a new dust bag.
➤ Clean the suction hose if it is heavily soiled.
– Hold the ends of the suction hose up high.
– Pour liquid detergent into both ends.
– Use a garden hose to fill up with water while holding both ends up.
– Shake the suction hose to and fro to loosen the dirt.
– Pull the suction hose apart as far as possible.
– Rinse out the dirt with the garden hose.
– Repeat this procedure until the suction hose is clean.
– Hang the suction hose up from the middle and leave it to dry before
using it again.
➤ Check whether the suction system is blocked.
Clean the suction system.
➤ Check the motor filter.
Clean or replace the motor filter.
➤ Check the outlet filter.
Clean or replace the outlet filter.
