Motor Thermostat
WARNING: This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type 3-wire cord (3-prong
plug). This plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong
plug. This is a safety feature. If the plug should fail to fit the outlet,
contact an electrician to replace the outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding pin, part of the 3-prong plug.
IMPORTANT: This motor is equipped with a motor protective thermostat.
If for some reason the vacuum cleaner should overheat,
the thermostat will automatically turn the unit OFF.
Should this occur, unplug the vacuum cleaner from wall
outlet or turn off switch. Allow the unit to cool. To restart,
re-plug into wall outlet or turn switch back on.
