WARNING

To reduce the risk of electrical shock:

• Turn power switch OFF and disconnect polarized plug from electrical outlet before performing maintenance or troubleshooting checks.

• Before using your vacuum, make sure that the dirt tank is in locked position and that all filters, both pre- and post-filters, are in

place. DO NOT operate your vacuum without these filters.

• Do not operate vacuum with damp or wet filters. Allow components to dry before reassembling the dirt tank.

• Do not use without filters in place.

Protecting the Vacuum’s Motor

For more assistance with your vacuum’s motor protection, visit

support.BISSELL.com

.

There is an internal thermal protector in your vacuum that protects it from overheating. It controls

the main vacuum motor only, not the brush motor. When it activates, the main motor will stop.

The front lights and brush roll will stay on but there won’t be any suction. If this happens, follow

these steps:

1.

Turn vacuum OFF and unplug from electrical outlet.

2.

Check for the source of overheating problem (full dirt tank, dirty filters or a clog) and fix by

following the steps in the “Vacuum won’t pick up dirt” troubleshooting section.

3.

When the motor cools for approximately 30 minutes, the thermal protector automatically resets

and cleaning may continue. If the vacuum will not turn ON or the thermal protector continues to

activate, contact Consumer Care.
