Pre-treating
Cleaning effectiveness will be enhanced
if you pre-treat heavily stained or
highly-soiled areas. Here’s how to do it:
1. Hold the cleaning tool just above the surface
of the carpet or upholstery to be cleaned.
Press the trigger to release a spray of clean-
ing solution directly onto the soiled area.
2. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.
1. Hold the tool approximately 1” above the
soiled surface. Press the spray trigger to apply
the cleaning solution to the soiled area.
2. Using the brush on the tool, gently scrub
the area to be cleaned.
3. For thorough cleaning, spray additional
solution while the brush and suction are in
contact with the surface.
4. Apply downward pressure on the tool and
pull it toward you. The suction will remove
the dirt and cleaning solution. Continue
until no more dirt can be removed.
5. As a final step, use “drying strokes” (by not
pressing the spray trigger) to remove as
much liquid/moisture as possible. Repeat
this step as often as necessary.
