DIRT SENSOR
The dirt sensor is located on the floor brush.
When the vacuum cleaner is in use, with the
switch in the CARPET position, the blue light
on the top of the brush will illuminate to show
that dirt is being vacuumed. As long as the
light is on, dirt is passing across the sensor to
indicate that the surface still needs cleaning.
When the sensor light turns off, the sensor is
not seeing enough dirt to warrant further
cleaning of that area.

TO CLEAN DIRT SENSOR LENSES
The dirt sensor lenses are located on the
inside of the floor brush. These lenses should
be cleaned periodically.
1. Remove floor brush from nozzle.
2. Turn floor brush upside down.
3. The two dirt sensor lenses are located on
the inside of the opening as shown. Brush
each sensor lens several times to remove dust
and dirt.
CAUTION
Never use water or any cleaning solution
when cleaning the lenses. The residue of
the water or cleaners will accelerate the
recoating of the lenses and make cleaning
necessary sooner.
