Preparing The Carpet
IMPORTANT! Do not use the shampooer as a dry vacuum.

Helpful hints for cleaning carpet
- Only use a low foam solution with this shampooer.
- Do not oversaturate the carpet with cleaning solution while using the shampooer.
- For heavily soiled areas, additional applications may be necessary.
- Allow plenty of time to dry the carpet thoroughly.
- If cleaning solution comes into contact with wood furniture or wooden material, immediately wipe away to avoid damage.
- Once the carpet has been cleaned with the shampooer avoid walking on the carpet until it has completely dried.
- Before you start cleaning with the shampooer, determine where to start and end to avoid walking on previously cleaned areas.
Check for colour fastness
- Before you begin cleaning the carpet, test for colour fastness. Dampen a white cloth with solution. Test a small carpeted area in a closet. Gently rub the cloth over the area.
- Check for colour bleeding. If the cloth remains clean, it should be safe to clean the carpet.
After cleaning
- Allow carpet to dry completely. Try not to walk on the carpet until it has thoroughly dried.
- If you require to walk on the carpet which has been recently cleaned with the shampooer, place white towels on the areas to be walked on.
- If the carpet has not dried and the furniture must be placed back into the room, place plastic or foil under the furniture to prevent staining the carpet.
- Thoroughly clean the dirty water tank with warm (max 40°C) tap water.

IMPORTANT! For best cleaning results use a steady, moderate, forward and backward motion. Always work from back to front across the room to avoid stepping on wet carpet and lowering the carpet pile.
