Possible Causes
Blocked cooling vents, Overuse on turbo mode, Clogged filters, Internal motor inefficiency
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the vacuum, remove the battery, and allow it to cool before further use.
- 1. Inspect and clean vents: Locate all air vents on the main body and handle. Use a soft brush to remove lint and dust.
- 2. Clean filters: Ensure pre‑motor and exhaust filters are clean and dry to allow proper airflow.
- 3. Reduce power setting: Use standard or eco mode for regular cleaning and reserve turbo for short bursts.
- 4. Monitor temperature: After cleaning, run the vacuum for 5–10 minutes and check if the temperature is acceptable.
- 5. If overheating persists: The motor may be failing or internal airflow channels may be obstructed. Professional service is recommended.
