Vacuum handle or body becomes uncomfortably hot during normal use.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

Possible Causes

Blocked vents, Clogged filters, Failing motor drawing excess current, Poor internal heat dissipation

Safety first: Turn off the vacuum and remove the battery. Allow the unit to cool completely before further use.

1. Inspect and clean vents: Use a soft brush to remove dust from all air vents on the main body.
2. Clean filters and check for clogs: Ensure airflow is not restricted.
3. Use lower power mode: If overheating occurs only in Turbo mode, limit use of Turbo and monitor temperature.
4. If the body still becomes very hot quickly, discontinue use and contact LG service. Internal components may be failing.
