Embedded Dirt FINDER

feature
(some models only)
With red and green lights (A), the
21
22
'Dirt FINDER' system alerts the user
to areas of carpet that may need more
cleaning attention. It is able to sense
when larger amounts of dirt particles,
especially embedded dirt, are removed.
To let you know that the "Dirt FINDER'
feature is ready the red light will come on
when the cleaner is first turned on. After
a few seconds, the red light will go off
and the green light will come on.
Cleaning may then begin.
18
To help keep the cord out of the
18
way while vacuuming, position
cord in cord clip (A) located at rear of
cleaner on hose rack.
20
The cleaner can also be moved by
20
using the carrying handle.
The green light will remain on through-
out cleaning except when the detector
senses that a larger amount of dirt is
being picked up; then the red light will
come on.
When the red light is on, you should
take additional cleaning strokes in the
area until it changes to green.
•The red light may seldom come on
during cleaning. This means that your
cleaner is picking up primarily fine
surface dust and lint which the system
may not detect, or that the carpet is
TM
generally clean. To increase the
feature's sensitivity to dirt, set the
switch (B) to the "Hi" position.
•At other times, the red light may stay
on for a considerable amount of time.
This means that the carpet contains a
high level of dirt which is being removed
by the cleaner. To decrease the
feature's sensitivity to dirt, set the
switch to the "Reg." (Regular) position.

ing position for general operation on

Electronic perfor-
mance indicator
models only)
The amber colored indicator (C) is
accurate when cleaning only carpet and
not when using the tools. It will light up
under two conditions:
1. When the light flashes, cleaning
performance is severely reduced and the
filter bag should be replaced right away
in order to return the performance to an
effective level.
2. If the light continues to flash or, after
changing the bag, check for blockages
in the nozzle, hose, tools or at the filter
bag opening. Remove the blockage (see
"Clearing blockages" section) in order to
restore maximum cleaning performance.
