eMbedded dirtfinder™
(Available on select models only)
With red and green lights (A),
the ‘DirtFINDER’ system
alerts the user to areas of
carpet that may need more
cleaning attention. It is able
to sense when larger
amounts of dirt particles,
especially embedded dirt,
are removed.
To let you know that the
DirtFINDER™ feature is
ready, the red light 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 throughout cleaning except
when the detector senses that a larger amount of dirt is
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 cleaning. This
means that your cleaner is picking up primarily fine
surface dust and lint which the system may not detect, or
that the carpet is generally clean. To increase the feature’s
sensitivity to dirt, set the switch (B) to the “Hi” position.
• At other times, the red light may stay on for a considerable
amount of time. This means that the carpet contains a
high level of dirt which is being removed by the cleaner.
To decrease the feature’s sensitivity to dirt, set the switch
to the “Reg” (Regular) position.
