Select a pile height setting by turning the
height adjust selector located on the
nozzle.

SUGGESTED PILE HEIGHT SETTINGS

There are five (5) pile height settings on
the vacuum cleaner. For best deep down
cleaning, use the LO setting. However, you
may need to raise the height to make
some jobs easier, such as scatter rugs and
some deep pile carpets, and to prevent
the vacuum cleaner from shutting off.
Attention: Refer to your carpet
manufacturers cleaning
recommendations. Some more delicate
carpets may require that they be
vacuumed with the agitator turned off to
prevent carpet damage.
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
nozzle of the vacuum cleaner.
• When little or no dirt is present the
dirt sensor is off.
• With medium or heavy concentration
the dirt sensor is on.
OPERATION
As you vacuum, the 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 see
page 15.
