4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Powering On

- Turn on the "Vacuum" switch.

4.2 Cleaning Process
- Pre-test the cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area of the material to be cleaned for colorfastness.
- Position the upholstery tool over the area to be cleaned.
- Press the trigger on the upholstery tool to spray the cleaning solution onto the surface.
