DIRT SENSOR
The DIRT SENSOR
light system is mount-
ed on the PowerMate
nozzle near the reset
button. It consists of a
series of two red lights
and two green lights..
The lights give you an indicationofthe amount
of dirt particles that are passing through the
sensor on its way to the dust bag..
INITIAL START UP
When the PowerMate is first started, the fol-
lowing light sequence occurs in a two-second
time frame:
IoTwo reds come on.
2. Two greens are on and wi]l remain on until
the PowerMate nozzle is placed in use_
NOTE: if the nozzle ison a surface thathas
dirt on it, dirt will be picked up by the vacuum
cleaner and the red lights might slay on
DIRT
SENsoR...._.
IN OPERATION
When the PowerMate is being moved back
and forth on the floor, the lightswillchange
from one configuration to another as dirt is
being vacuumed..As long as the red lights are
on, dirt is passing through the wand to indicate
that the surface still needs cleaning.
When the green lights stay on as the
PowerMate is moved back and forth over an
area, the sensor is not seeing enough dirt to
warrant further cleaning of that area.
NOTE: Dirt sensor lights DO NOT function
in the FLOOR setting
REMOVING CLOGS
