HOW TO USE
Preparing the Carpet
1. Vacuum the carpet or upholstered furniture which is to be cleaned thoroughly
with a vacuum cleaner. If possible, use a brush attachment to do this.
2. If possible, remove all furniture from the carpet. In the case of large items of
furniture which cannot be moved to one side, place plastic film below or around
the feet and only remove it once the carpet has completely dried after it has
been cleaned. The feet could be damaged by the moisture from the carpet.
3. Check the colourfastness of the carpet or upholstered furniture. Soak a piece of
white fabric with the cleaning solution supplied (see the “Preparing the Device /
Filling the Fresh Water Container” section) and rub it carefully on an inconspicu-
ous spot on the carpet. If the white fabric does not become discoloured, the
carpet or upholstered furniture can be cleaned with the device. In the case of
carpets or upholstered furniture with several colours, test the fastness of each
colour.
Preparing the Device / Filling the Fresh Water Container
CAUTION: Only ever pour the cleaning agent supplied with the device or standard
carpet cleaning products for carpet cleaners into the fresh water container. Do not
use any cleaning products that produce a lot of foam as excessive foaming impedes
the functioning of the device.
1. Press the release lever of the fresh water container (15)
upwards. The fresh water container (2) is released from
the locking mechanism.
2. Remove the fresh water container (2) from the device.
3. Flip open the seal cap of the fresh water container (9) and
pour in carpet cleaning agent. Note the dosing instructions
for the cleaning agent when you do this. Typically 50ml
of solution to 500ml of water.
It is important to put the
water in first, then add the solution. Then give the tank a
shake to mix it.
4. Fill the fresh water container (2) up to the Max mark with
warm water (max. 40°C). Close the seal cap again.
5. Insert the fresh water container (2) into the container sup-
port (14) (see the “Before Initial Use” chapter).
