TROUBLE
CHECK POINT
CAUSE / REMEDY
Motor fails to rotate

Thermal Cut-out
This vacuum cleaner is fitted a thermal cut-out device which automatically turns off the cleaner to prevent overheating of the
motor. When this happens, disconnect the cleaner from the mains socket and check the dust compartment as it may be full
or clogged with fine dust. Check for any other obstructions.
After emptying the dust compartment or removing the obstruction, leave the vacuum cleaner to cool down until the thermal
cut-out resets after approximately 40 minutes.
Important: The thermal cut-out will not reset if the unit is not disconnected from the mains socket.
