Possible Causes
Dust bin filled beyond MAX line, Dust level sensor window blocked, Cyclone assembly clogged, Fine dust packed around sensor in Sencor dust container
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn OFF the vacuum and remove the battery before cleaning the dust container.
- Empty dust bin: Detach and empty the dust container completely.
- Clean sensor area: Locate the dust level sensor window or optical sensor (if your Sencor model has one) inside the bin or cyclone area. Wipe gently with a dry, soft cloth.
- Clean cyclone: Remove the cyclone assembly and tap out dust. Use a soft brush to clear the cyclone holes.
- Reassemble: Refit all components securely and test. If "FL" still appears with an empty bin, the sensor may be faulty and require replacement.
