How to Clean Windows

  • The first time you wipe, you must “dry wipe” (turn off the water spray function and do not spray any water), and first remove the wind and sand on the glass surface.
  • If you spray some water on the cleaning cloth or glass first, the water will mix with the sand and turn into yellow muddy water, and the wiping result will be poor.
  • Use the machine in sunny or low-humidity weather, dry wiping works best.
  • Do not use in rainy or humid weather, there will be white misty moisture traces.
  • If it’s slipping on the glass , you can spray a little water on the cleaning pads xX
Then Wet Wipe.

Replace the clean cleaning pads, turn on the automatic water spray function or keep the upper cleaning wheel clean and dry. Spray a little water on the lower cleaning wheel (1 ~2 sprays are sufficient). Do not make it too wet, the completely wet cleaning pad will affect the machine Running.

Cleaning Tips
  1. Wipe with a dry cloth first, then wipe with a damp cloth for best results. For the dirtiest glasses, you can wipe them several times to ensure the cleaning effect.
  2. Do not get the cleaning cloth completely wet during normal use.
  3. If the machine runs slowly, please replace the cleaning cloth.
