➢
The electronic dirt sensor is a feature
which will detect particles as they
pass through the vacuum cleaner.
➢
The dirt sensor indicator is located
on the front of the vacuum cleaner as
illustrated.
➢
A red light indicates dirt is being
picked up by the vacuum cleaner.
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 bin
port assembly. Occasionally, it may
become necessary to clean the two
optic cells to assure maximum
performance.
➢
Clean optic cells:
• When the red light stays on
continuously.
• When dirt or dust adheres to the
optic cells.
• Whenever the dust bin is cleaned.
➢
To clean the dirt sensor optics,
remove Dust Bin as outlined in the
(Dust Bin Cleaning section).
➢
With the dust bin removed you can
insert a cloth into the dust bin port
opening.
➢
Wipe the optic cells with a soft, dry
cloth.
➢
Never use cleaners or liquids as they
can help speed the recoating of the
optic cells and make it necessary to
clean them much sooner than normal.
