Picking up spills
Your Brush ‘N’ Wash cleaner may also
be used to pick up
small liquid spills
(3.78 l or less, never to exceed 6 mm
in depth)
on carpet, upholstery, or bare
floors.
For best results, pick up spills immedi-
ately by placing the stair/upholstery noz-
zle just above the spill and suction up
any residue on top of the carpet. If the
spill remains, place either the stair/
upholstery nozzle
or
floor nozzle
with
brushes turned OFF
in front of the spill.
Pull the nozzle very slowly over the spill
initially with suction only. Repeat with spray
and suction.
When picking up spills on bare floors,
use only the floor nozzle with the bare
floor attachment
(available at additional
cost if not included with your cleaner)
in
place and speed selector in the OFF
position
(this will help prevent spreading
the spill).
If a stain is left, the stair/upholstery nozzle is
generally more effective for removing it.
Although no cleaning solution can com-
pletely remove all stains, they can be treat-
ed by following the instructions provided by
the manufacturer of the carpet, upholstery,
or bare floor surface being cleaned.
Do not use the cleaner to pick up flam-
mable or combustible liquids or chemi-
cals.
When finished, follow “After cleaning”
instructions on page 10.

a.
Allow carpet or upholstery to dry. To
help prevent matting and resoiling the
carpet, keep children and pets away
from surface until it
is completely dry. If
it is necessary to walk on damp
car-
pet, place towels or white cloths on the
traffic areas.
If furniture must be replaced before the
carpet is dry, use plastic or aluminum
foil pads under legs of furniture so metal
slides or wood finishes will not stain the
carpet.
b.
If desired, the carpet may be rinsed.
Rinsing is not necessary for cleaning,
but it may Improve the surface’s appear-
ance after it is dry.
If rinsing is desired, be careful not to
over-wet the carpet or upholstery.
Allow time for carpet or upholstery to
dry completely between cleaning and
rinsing.
To rinse, follow the same proce-
dure for cleaning only using hot tap
water (50˚ C max) with no detergent in
the upper clean solution tank.
c.
Empty tanks, rinse with clear water
and let air dry. Rinse the solution tank
cap and recovery tank lid and let air dry.
d.
Remove debris from recovery
tank filter and rinse with clean
water.
Note:
If the filter is removed for clean-
ing, it is easier to replace while it is still
wet.
e.
If desired, vacuum thoroughly after
carpet has completely dried. This will
help reduce any shading left by the
cleaner’s brushes.

normal cleaning.
3. Dry hands and plug cord into a
properly grounded outlet.

outlets.

from the door or path to sink where
tanks will be emptied and filled.
Step on handle release pedal and
lower handle to operating position;
turn carpet cleaner ON.
5. Squeeze trigger to release clean-
ing solution and
slowly
push carpet
cleaner forward (equals one wet

Release trigger and slowly push car-
pet cleaner forward over area just

Then
slowly

7. Overlap strokes by 1 inch to help
prevent streaking.
Keep nozzle flat on floor for both for-
ward and reverse strokes.
8. For heavily soiled areas, repeat
steps 5-7.
9. For particularly soiled carpet or
spots, use the Clean Surge™ button
(see following section). Avoid satu-
rating carpet, as noted below.
Note: To avoid saturating carpet,
do not use more than 4 wet
strokes over one area. Always end
with dry strokes.
It is best to alternate wet and dry
strokes as described above.
For best cleaning results and to aid
in faster drying of carpet, end with
more dry strokes. (Continue using
dry strokes until little water is visible
passing through the recovery tank
lid.)
Empty recovery tank when the motor
sound becomes higher pitched and
there is a loss in suction (see
“Automatic shut-off”, page 6).
