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.
Optic
Cells
(inside
Port
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.
