Thermal Cut Off

This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of motor overheating. If the cleaner suddenly
shuts off, push the switch pedal once and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for a possible source of overheating such
as a blocked hose or clogged filter. If these conditions are found, fix them and wait at least 30 minutes before attempting to
use the cleaner. After the 30 minute period, plug the cleaner back in and turn on the switch. If the cleaner still does not run,
call a Eureka Service Station.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). The plug will
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Afin de réduire le risque de choc électrique, cet appareil est muni d’une fiche polarisée (une des lames est plus large).
Cette fiche ne peut être insérée dans une prise polarisée que d’une seule façon. Si la fiche ne peut été insérée dans la prise,
retourner la fiche. Si la fiche ne peut toujours pas être insérée dans la prise, faire installer une prise adéquate par un
électricien qualifié. Ne pas modifier la fiche.
