Possible Causes
Partially blocked airflow, Failing motor, Restricted exhaust vents, Continuous use beyond duty cycle
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the vacuum and remove the battery. Allow it to cool completely before further use.
- Clean all airflow paths: Empty the bin, clean cyclone, pre-filter, and HEPA filter. Ensure exhaust vents are not blocked by dust or fabric.
- Shorter duty cycles: Use the vacuum in shorter sessions with breaks, especially on MAX mode.
- Monitor temperature: After cleaning, run the vacuum for a few minutes and check if the handle still becomes very hot. Mild warmth is normal; excessive heat is not.
- If overheating continues: The motor may be failing internally. Replace the main motor assembly to prevent sudden failure.
