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 the vacuum OFF and unplug from an electrical outlet.
2. Check for the source of the overheating problem (full Dirt Tank, dirty filters or a clog) and fix it 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.

Troubleshooting
Below are some of the issues you may run into. If you don’t see the issue you’re experiencing below, visit support.BISSELL.com.
