About Your Spot Washer

• This Spot Washer is designed to clean small areas of household fabric surfaces, such as patches of carpets and upholstery, it is not suitable for use as a conventional vacuum cleaner.
• Do not use the Spot Washer on other materials.
• Do not add cleaning solutions to the water tank. Only use the spot cleaner with tap water (or purified/distilled water).
• Ensure the water does not enter electrical parts.

Filling the Clean Water Tank (13)

1. Grasp the lid and lift the Clean Water Tank (13) straight up out of Spot Washer.

2. Turn the tank upside down and unscrew the filling cap (circled right) from the bottom of the tank.

3. Fill the tank with warm water (max. 40⁰C) as shown left, ensuring that the water level is not above the ‘MAX’ mark (arrowed) on the side of the tank:
   In hard water areas it is strongly recommended that distilled/purified water is used to avoid calcium build up which may damage the Spot Washer.

4. Screw the filling cap back on, turn the tank the correct way up and replace the Clean Water Tank (13) into the spot washer.
   DO NOT overfill the tank as this will cause a spillage/leakage.
   DO NOT operate the Spot Washer with an empty clean water tank.

Preparing the Carpet/Upholstery for Cleaning

WARNING! DO NOT use this Spot Washer as a dry vacuum cleaner as this will damage the appliance.
Before cleaning, dampen a white cloth and rub the cloth gently over a small test area on the carpet or upholstery to be cleaned and check for any colour bleeding.
If the cloth remains clean, it should be safe to continue.

Using Your Spot Washer

1. Ensure the Dirty Water Tank (8) is in place. Remove the Mains Cable (15) from the back of the Spot Washer by rotating the Adjustable Cable Tidies (14) inwards as shown right and then remove the Mains Cable (15):

2. Fully unravel the Mains Cable (15) and insert the mains plug into the nearest mains socket and switch the socket on (if applicable).

6. Once the area is sufficiently saturated, release the Water Release Trigger (3). Press the Multi Tool (1) evenly and firmly against the material. Pull the handle slowly towards you, keeping it pressed against the carpet or upholstery to vacuum up the water. The dirty water will go into the Dirty Water Tank (8).
