Mixing the cleaning solution

DANGER

Danger from detergents

Risk of injury and damage
Observe all instructions that are included with the detergents used.

Note

• Warm water (maximum 50 °C) increases the cleaning effect. Check the temperature resistance of the surface to be cleaned.
• Use detergents sparingly to conserve the environment.

1. Mix fresh water and detergent in a clean container (concentration as specified for the detergent). Dis-solve the detergent in the water.

Filling the fresh water tank

1. Pour the cleaning solution into the freshwater tank. The filling level must not exceed the “MAX” mark.

Defoaming agent

Note
Foam is generated in the wastewater container when cleaning previously shampooed carpets. Foaming can be prevented by adding defoaming agents.

1. Add a defoaming agent (special accessory) to the wastewater container.

Cleaning Methods

Normal soiling

1. Spray and vacuum up the cleaning solution in one step.

Note
Repeated vacuuming without spraying shortens the drying time.

Heavily soiling or stains

1. Apply cleaning solution with the suction turbine switched off and let it work for 10 to 15 minutes.
2. Clean the area as with normal soiling.

Upholstery Cleaning

1. Adv only: Attach the upholstery nozzle instead of the floor nozzle (with suction pipe and handle).
2. Use less detergent for sensitive fabrics and spray the surface at a distance of approx. 200 mm. Then only vacuum.

Cleaning tips

• Spray heavily soiled areas in advance and allow the cleaning solution to work for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Always work from light to shadow (from window to door).
• Always work from the cleaned to the uncleaned area.
• The more sensitive the covering (oriental bridges, Berber, upholstery fabric) the lower the concentration of detergent.
• Carpets with jute backs can shrink and bleed in colour if the work is too wet.
• Brush wet pile carpets in the direction of the pile after cleaning when wet (e.g. with a fibre brush or scrubber).
• Impregnating after wet cleaning prevents the textile from being quickly soiled again.
• To avoid pressure points or rust stains, do not walk on or furnish the cleaned area until after it has fully dried.
• To improve the cleaning result, rinse the object with clean water after using detergents.
