o Clean Carpet Cleaner

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric
shock or injury from moving parts,
unplug before servicing.

1. Before turning the cleaner off, tilt the cleaner

back, raising the nozzle off the carpet for 15-20 
seconds. This prevents extracted water in the 
nozzle from dripping back onto the carpet after
you turn the cleaner off.

2. Place the red power switch in the ”Off“ position.

Unplug the power cord from the outlet.

3. Remove the cleaner cartridge by rotating the

locking white lever upwards. 

Do not store with

a cleaner cartridge attached.

4. Remove and empty the

tank. Rinse out the lower
recovery tank with warm
water. Wipe off the inlet
screen to remove
accumulated dirt, lint
and debris (Figure 21).
Replace tank (Figure 8).

5. If you have been

operating the cleaner
at length, it may be
necessary to clean the
nozzle from time to time,
particularly if the carpet
is brand new or very
dirty, or if long-haired
pets frequently use the
carpeted area (Figure 22).

6. Unplug cleaner and

examine several areas
on the power nozzle
(Figures 22-23) to see
if debris has built up:

A:

Extractor slots 

(Figure 22-A)

B:

Brush roll chamber 

(Figure 22-B) 

C:

Spray Tips 

(Figure 22-C)

7. To clean the STEEMER extractor slots, place a cloth

or towel over the motor cover to shield and
protect the motor from water damage. Run hot tap
water through the nozzle until clean (Figure 22).

8. To clean the brush chamber and spray tips, take a

towel or damp cloth and wipe clean. (Figure 23).
