8. Gently press the tool onto the fabric.
Press the trigger and slowly pull the noz-
zle over the fabric.
9. Overlap strokes by 1/2 inch to help
prevent streaking.
Make additional strokes without pressing
the trigger to remove more moisture.
10. To clean in corners or creases, lift
the tool one-half inch from the fabric and
press the solution trigger.
11. Vacuum up the solution with the tool
without pressing the trigger.
12. For heavily soiled areas, it may be
necessary to repeat the cleaning
process. Make crisscrossing strokes to
the original pattern; overlap each pass
(Fig. 3-22).
Make no more than 2 passes with the
solution or rinse over any one area to
prevent over-wetting and damage to
fabric.
If additional cleaning is necessary, wait
until the upholstery is completely dry
before using the tool again.
13. Empty recovery tank when the motor
sound becomes higher pitched and
there is a loss in suction (see “Automatic
shut-off”, Fig. 2-6).
When finished cleaning, follow “After
cleaning” instructions on pages 9 & 10
and “After using tool” instructions on
page 12.
