Range of Usage
1. The Carpet cleaner is to be used on
carpets, such as level loop, etc.
2. Some Loop Berber carpets, Natural
Fiber (including silk and wool), and Soft
Fiber carpets can fuzz with wear. Some
vacuums & carpet cleaners can worsen
this carpet wear. If cleaning on Berber,
Natural Fiber, or Soft Fiber carpeting,
rst test a small hidden area of carpet
by running the carpet washer over it.
If no fuzzing or overwetting occurs,
continue cleaning. Avoid overwetting
Berber carpets. If you have any
questions or concerns, consult with your
carpet manufacturer on deep cleaning
recommendations.
3. Important: Keep the foot of the deep
cleaner perpendicular to the rug’s edge

EN
10
with each cleaning pass to prevent
damage.
4. Important! Please check manufacturer’s
tag before cleaning area rugs for any
specialized cleaning instructions. We do
not recommend deep cleaning delicate,
silk, wool, antique or area rugs without
a manufacturer’s tag.
5. When cleaning area rugs, place the
rug on a sealed surface to test for
colorfastness in an inconspicuous area.
Your cleaner should not be used on
unsealed surfaces.
6. Do not use on rugs or carpet when dry
cleaning is recommended.
7. For upholstery, check cleaning code -
Use your Tineco Carpet Washer only
if the upholstery fabric is marked with
a “W” (for “wet” clean) or “S/W” (for
“solvent/dry” or “wet” clean). Do not
clean fabric marked “S” (“solvent/dry”
clean only). If your upholstery does
not have a code, seek professional
assistance
8. Test for colorfastness - Wet a white
absorbent cloth with the solution. In
a small, hidden area, gently rub the
surface with the dampened cloth. Wait
ten minutes and check for color removal
or bleed with white paper towel or
cloth. If surface has more than one
color, check all colors.
9. Keep your appliance away from heat
sources, such as replace or heater, to
avoid casing deformation.

Grounding Instructions
1. This appliance must be grounded. If
it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and
grounding plug. The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

EN
11
2. WARNING– Improper
connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualied electrician
or service person if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance – if it will
not t the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
3. This appliance is for use on a nominal
120-V circuit and has a grounding
attachment plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in sketch A in Figure 20. Make
sure that the appliance is connected to
an outlet having the same conguration
as the plug. No adaptor should be used
with this appliance.
