Vacuum body becomes very hot to the touch during normal use

Safety first: Turn OFF the vacuum, remove the battery, and let the unit cool completely before further use.

Step-by-step checks:

• 1. Clean all filters: Remove and clean pre-motor and exhaust/HEPA filters as specified in the manual. Ensure they are completely dry before reinstalling.
• 2. Inspect exhaust vents: Check the rear or side vents for lint or dust buildup and clean with a soft brush.
• 3. Use appropriate power mode: Avoid running on maximum power continuously for long periods; switch to normal or ECO mode when possible.
• 4. Check for obstructions: Ensure there are no blockages in the wand or tools that could increase motor load.

When to stop: If the body still overheats quickly after cleaning and moderate use, the motor or cooling system may be failing and should be serviced.
