### Follow these steps to fix your unit shutting off:

**TIP:** Make sure your unit is properly plugged into a functional outlet.

**NOTE:** Your thermal protector may have been activated. A thermal protector has been designed   
            into your cleaner to protect it from overheating.  
                       *1. Turn the cleaner OFF and unplug it.*   
                       *2. Empty the dirt cup, and clean the nozzle, the filter, and the hose                                         connector.*  
                       *3. After 30 minutes, once the unit is cleaned resume cleaning.*  
            For more information on how to clean the unit visit [here.](https://knowledgelibrary.ttifloorcare.com/dirtdevil-library/dirt-devil-power-max-pet/-endura-max-no-suction?hsLang=en)

**WARNING:** It is possible for the extension cord to warp/ Kink due to overheating. The user needs to pull out the cable until the *yellow sticker* shows, to prevent overheating while coiled up. User should carefully allow the cord to coil back into the unit by stepping on the pedal slowly.
