With red and green
lights (A), the Dirt-
FINDER™ system
alerts the user to
areas of carpet that
may need more
cleaning atten-
tion. It is able to
sense when larger
amounts of dirt
particles, especially
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 clean-

that your cleaner is
picking up primar-

and lint which the
system may not

carpet is generally
clean.

switch (B) to the
“Hi” position.
• At other times,
the red light may
stay on for a con-
siderable amount of
time. This means
that the carpet
contains a high
level of dirt which
is being removed by

To de-
crease the feature’s

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
through-
out cleaning except
when the detector
senses that a
larger
amount of dirt is
