Maintenance of Dirt Alert Feature (On some models)
The dirt alert sensor uses infra-red technology to indicate whether or not floors are clean. When debris breaks the light beam, the red light comes on indicating additional cleaning is needed in this area. If there is no break in the light beam, the floor is clean and no light will come on.
When using your new vacuum you may be cleaning deep down hidden dirt missed by your old vacuum causing the light to stay red longer. With frequent cleaning, after the first few times you use your new Eureka vacuum, the red light should go on less.
NOTE: The dirt alert feature is not intended to be used for above the floor cleaning with attachments.
The red light indicates dirt, dust, etc. is still being removed from the area being cleaned.
How to Check the Dirt Alert Sensors
To check if dirt sensor is working properly.
1. While the red light is on, tip the vacuum backwards on rear
wheels, lifting the brush roll off the carpet a couple of inches.
2. After a few seconds the red light should turn off.
HINT: New carpeting has loose carpet fibers which will trip
the red light sensor beam.

HOW TO MAINTAIN
The instructions in this booklet serve as a guide to routine maintenance. To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the bag, belt, and brush roll often.
Brush Roll
The brush roll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap. Remove hair and threads from the brush roll so it continues brushing the carpet. To maintain the most efficient cleaning, the bristles must touch the carpet. To test the bristle length, hold a ruler against the underneath side of the cleaner. If the bristles no longer touch the ruler, replace the brush roll.
Brush Roll Belt
The brush roll belt turns the brush roll to agitate, sweep, and comb the carpet nap. Check the belt regularly to be sure it is in good condition. Replace the belt if it stretches, cracks or loses tension. Cut away any hair or threads wound around the brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup could cause the belt to rotate unevenly.
How To Replace Brush Roll Belt
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before replacing belt. Belt pulleys can become hot during
normal use. To prevent injury, avoid touching the motor pulley when checking the belt.

Disposable Dust Bag and Filters
The disposable dust bag plays a very important role in the efficiency of a vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the paper bag is to trap dirt. As the bag traps dirt, it must also
5
be porous enough to allow air to pass on through. If the paper bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and no cleaning can take place regardless of how powerful the unit. Change the dust bag and check the filters frequently. Some fine particles can restrict airflow very quickly and will decrease performance even before the bag appears to be full.
5. Place new belt around motor pulley.

When vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, powder, plaster dust, or similar fine substances, the bag and filters may require more frequent maintenance.
8. Pull right side of brush roll to stretch belt. Secure right
end cap into base.

9. Rotate brush roll to seat belt.
10. Replace the hood. Make sure hood front is behind
