Operating the Machine

Cleaning Tips
To dry the surface being cleaned more thoroughly, complete the cleaning with a second ‘pass’ with the
vacuum (and no spray) Never saturate the textile being cleaned while spraying.
NEVER let the waste water tank overflow as it will damage the motor. (This can only occur if the water
tank is refilled WITHOUT emptying the waste tank.)
CLEANING UPHOLESTRY & CARPETS
Color fastness: Always test the carpet or upholstery on a small inconspicuous area before
carrying out a full clean. If the test area shows signs of leaching, The dyes or pigments may
not be color fast and the material should not be wet cleaned
Heavily soiled areas can be cleaned more effectively if first the spot is cleaned with
concentrated cleaning solution.
The time taken to clean will depend on the thickness of the carpet and the degree of dirt on
the area to be cleaned
CLEANING STAIRS
Use the small upholstery tool (pg. 5 part 8) for cleaning instead of the floor wand (pg. 5 part 2)
assembly. When cleaning on stairs, take great care to ensure that the machine is stable and
cannot tip over, possibly resulting in injury.
DRAINING & CLEANING
When you have finished cleaning, hold the spray nozzle over the removable waste water
tank and squeeze the spray trigger until the remaining solution has been released with the
pump turned off. The spray hose can now be disconnected.
Now the vacuum hose can be disconnected.
Empty the waste water tank and rinse clean.
Empty the solution water tank and rinse clean.
STORAGE
Always unplug, empty, wipe down, and dry the machine after use.
Wrap the electrical cord around the handle of the machine.
Store in a dry indoor area only.
