Cleaning upholstery and
automobile interiors
With dry hands, plug cleaner into a
properly grounded outlet
and turn cleaner ON.
Be sure to check the cleaning code on your upholstery.
Use the
cleaner only on upholstery marked “W” or “W/S”.
When this happens, turn cleaner off
and empty recovery tank
through the pour spout before continuing use.
NOTE: Check recovery tank often.
Empty tank when it
appears full even if the automatic shut-off has not engaged.
Check clean solution tank also; it may need to be refilled.
If additional cleaning is necessary, wait until the carpet is
completely dry before using the nozzle again.
NOTE: Check the recovery tank for fullness often.
Empty
tank if it appears full even if automatic shut-off has not engaged.
To avoid saturating carpet, do not use more than 4 wet
strokes over any one area. Always end with dry strokes.
Overlap strokes by 1/2 inch to help prevent streaking.
Cleaning carpet and
carpeted stairs
Gently press the nozzle onto the fabric. Press the trigger and
slowly pull the nozzle over the fabric.
The built-in brush on the nozzle can help provide the scrubbing
action some spots may need for removal. Without pressing
trigger, scub the spot with the nozzle using a back and forth
motion. Follow with dry strokes (without pressing trigger).
Overlap strokes by 1/2 inch to help prevent streaking.
Make additional strokes without pressing the trigger to remove
more moisture.
For heavily soiled areas, it may be necessary to repeat the
cleaning process. Make criscrossing strokes to the original
pattern; overlap each pass.
Make no more than 2 passes with the solution over any one
area to prevent overwetting and damage to fabtic.
To clean in corners or creases, lift the nozzle 1/2 inch from the
fabric and press the trigger. Without pressing the trigger,
vacuum up the solution with the nozzle.
NOTE: Check the recovery tank for fullness often.
Empty
tank if it appears full even if automatic shut-off has not engaged.
If additional cleaning is necessary, wait until the upholstery is
completely dry before using the nozzle again.
With dry hands, plug cleaner into a
properly grounded outlet
and turn cleaner ON.
To prevent cleaner from falling, use extra caution when cleaning
on stairs.
Do not point nozzle at people or pets.
Lift nozzle, and position it at the edge of the carpet area or
against the riser. Pull nozzle slowly over carpet without pressing
trigger (dry stroke).
It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes as described above.
End with more dry strokes to aid in faster drying of carpet.
With cleaner placed on a stable surface, pre-spray a small area
of carpet or carpeted stair by holding the nozzle about one inch
above the carpet and push it forward while pressing the trigger
(equals one wet stroke).
Position nozzle at the edge of the carpet area or against the riser
and slightly press nozzle into carpet pile. Press the trigger and
pull the nozzle slowly over the carpet (second wet stroke).
Release trigger at end of stroke.
The built-in brush on the nozzle can help provide the scrubbing
action some spots may need for removal. Without pressing
trigger, scub the spot with the nozzle using a back and forth
motion.
