6. Operating Instructions
Once set up, follow these steps to clean your carpets:
- Plug In: Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet (220-240 V / 50 Hz).
- Start Cleaning: Turn on the appliance. Begin by pushing the cleaner forward slowly over the carpet. As you push, the cleaning solution will be dispensed onto the carpet.
- Suction Pass: Pull the cleaner backward over the same area. This action will suction up the dirty water from the carpet, allowing for faster drying.
- Overlap Passes: Work in sections, overlapping each pass slightly to ensure thorough cleaning.
- Repeat if Necessary: For heavily soiled areas, you may need to repeat the cleaning process.
- Monitor Tanks: Keep an eye on the fresh water tank (refill when empty) and the dirty water tank (empty when full).
- Finish: Once cleaning is complete, turn off the appliance and unplug it from the power outlet.
