To shorten the drying time, go back over the carpet
pulling slowly backwards without depressing the
gray button (Figure 14). Repeat this procedure until 
you do not see water being pulled from the carpet
through the nozzle.

CAUTION:

Do not allow the lower recovery

tank to overfill. Damage to the unit can result.
Empty the recovery tank when full and whenever
clean water is added to the upper supply tank.

To empty the recovery tank, simply release the tank
latch by squeezing the red and gray latch together
(Figure 5). Lift the tank out and carry it to a sink or
drain. Turn the tank upside down and pour the dirty
water out. Refill the supply tank with clean lukewarm
water. Replace cleaner cartridge as needed.

CAUTION: 

Cleaner will not operate without 

a cleaner cartridge locked into the docking bay
(Figure 19).

For heavily soiled carpets, it may be necessary to
clean the carpet from several directions to insure that
the nap of the carpet is thoroughly cleaned.

Keep young children and pets away from
the cleaned carpets until dry

TO PREPARE UPHOLSTERY

IMPORTANT:

Prior to cleaning any upholstered

furniture read the following instructions very
carefully.

Most modern upholstery fabrics may be safely
cleaned by wet cleaning methods; yet there are
exceptions to this, as some delicate or unusual 
fabrics require “dry cleaning.” If you are in doubt
about the type of fabric, we suggest that you check
with the manufacturer or dealer where the furniture
was purchased. Most fabrics are wear coded by the
manufacturer which details cleaning methods for a
particularfabric. If necessary, bring in a cushion or
arm cover to your dealer.

5.  Lower cleaner onto floor stand.
