PLEASE READ THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON PAGES 2 & 3 BEFORE USE.
IMPORTANT: Test all carpets/rugs/upholstery/hard floors before use. Before using the machine to
clean dried on stains and dirt, the surface should be vacuumed thoroughly.
Test for colourfastness - Wet a white absorbent cloth with the solution. In a small hidden area of
the surfaces to be cleaned, gently rub with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for
colour removal or bleed with a white paper towel or cloth. Check all surfaces to be cleaned and if
the surface has more than one colour, check all colours.
Test the spot washer on a small hidden area - If no damage or pile distortion occurs continue
cleaning. When using the spot washer, basic safety precautions should always be observed
and don’t over saturate your carpets/rugs/upholstery/hard floors. Not suitable for use on water
sensitive flooring/surfaces. Only use with VAX Spot Washer Cleaning Solution or VAX Spot Washer
Antibacterial Cleaning Solution. Using other solutions may cause excess foaming and will invalidate
your guarantee. The clean water/solution tank should only be filled with warm water (max 40⁰C).
Filling the clean water/solution tank with hot/boiling water will damage your spot washer and
invalidate the guarantee.

solution tank onto the
