Clean Carpet Sensor

To maintain the effectiveness of the Clean Carpet Sensor, a quarterly cleaning of the internal sensor lens is recommended. To clean the sensor lens, detach the Twist ‘n Snap Hose and gently wipe the clear lens area using a lightly dampened soft cloth. Allow enough time for the lens to dry thoroughly before reattaching the Twist ‘n Snap Hose and using the vacuum.
