Hoover® FloorSense™ Technology

Hoover® REACTTM with FloorSenseTM technology automatically optimizes cleaning performance on carpet and hard floors.

On carpet, FloorSenseTM automatically increases brush roll speed to lift deep-down embedded dirt.

On hard floors, FloorSenseTM automatically slows the brush roll to prevent scattering of dirt across the floor.

The FloorSenseTM Dashboard displays useful functions of your vacuum. When FloorSenseTM is active, lights on the dashboard will pulse when sensing floor type.

Once FloorSenseTM has determined the optimal setting for your floor type, you will see CARPET or HARD FLOOR illuminated on the dashboard.

1. When cleaning CARPET, FloorSense™ automatically increases brush roll speed to lift deep-down embedded dirt.
2. On HARD FLOOR, FloorSense™ automatically slows the brush roll to prevent scattering of dirt across the floor.
3. BRUSH ROLL will be displayed when the brush roll is jammed or overloaded. Refer to the Maintenance section or the Hoover App for directions on how to clean the brush roll.

• Tip - To allow FloorSense™ to determine floor type and optimize brush roll speed automatically; ensure the FloorSense™ control is in the ON position.

3. Inspect the nozzle inlet, hose connector, hose, dirt cup inlet, cyclonic filter, rinsable filters and HEPA filters for any obstructions. Clear obstructions if present.
4. When cleaner is unplugged and motor cools off for 30 minutes, the Thermal Protector will deactivate and cleaning may continue.

If the Thermal Protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner needs servicing. Refer to the Warranty section in the user manual for servicing information.
