Thermal protector
An internal thremal protector has been
designed into your vacuum to protect it
from overheating. When the thermal
protector activates, the vacuum motor
will stop operating. If this happens:
1. Turn the vacuum OFF (O) and unplug
from electrical outlet.
2. Empty dirt container, check filters and
air passages for dirt accumulation.
3. The thermal protector automatically
resets after approximately 1 hour. If
the thermal protector does not reset,
call BISSELL Consumer Services.
*The filter media, not the vacuum
as a whole, complies with the
IEST-RP-CC001.5 HEPA Standard
WARNING:
Do not operate cleaner
with damp or wet filters or
without all filters in place.
