Operation

Clean carpet sensor

(Select models only)

The clean carpet sensor detects dirt being picked up while the vacuum is in use. When the vacuum is picking up dirt, the red light will come on. Occasionally, the lights may alternate quickly back and forth if the area is only lightly soiled or the dirt is spread out. For the best cleaning, continue to vacuum until the green light remains constantly illuminated.
