eMbedded dirtfinder™
(available on select models only)
With red and green lights
(A), the ‘DirtFINDER’
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
DirtFINDER™ 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.
The green light will remain on throughout 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 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.
