The electronic dirt sensor is a feature which will detect particles as they pass through the vacuum cleaner.

°When little or no dirt is present the

dirt sensor is green_

*With medium or heavy concentration the dirt sensor is red°

OPERATION

As you vacuum, the red indicator light will come on and stay on as long as the sensor detects a high concentration of

particles passing through the vacuum cleaner,

TO CLEAN DIRT SENSOR OPTICS

The dirt sensor optics consist of two optic cells located inside the dust bag port_ Occasionally, it may become necessary to clean the two optic cells to assure maximum performance°

It is recommended the optic cells be cleaned:

When the red light stays on continuously.

When dirt or dust adheres to the optic cells.

Whenever the dust bag is removed_

Optic Ceils

To clean the sensor, wipe the optic cells with a soft, dry cloth_ Never use cleaners or liquids as they can help speed the recoatlng of the optic cells and make it necessary to clean them much sooner than normal, The dirt sensor area can be

reached by removing the dust bag,
