Description of Operation

With the carpet cleaner, you can thoroughly wet-clean carpets, upholstery, and similar textile materials. A mixture of water and cleaning agent is sprayed from the fresh water tank onto the surface to be cleaned. Simultaneously, the dirty water is sucked from the fibers into the dirty water tank. This prevents textiles from becoming oversaturated during wet cleaning. The suction turbine and spray pump can be operated independently of each other.

Operation

Cleaning Methods

Notes:

• Cleaning Agent: Before use, test the colorfastness and moisture resistance of the surface in an inconspicuous area.
• Depending on the dirt level: 100-200 ml.
• For sensitive fabrics: use a lower concentration of cleaning agent.
• For heavily soiled areas, spray with the cleaning solution beforehand and let it work for a few minutes before vacuuming. Only switch on the spray pump for this.
• Work from light to dark areas.
• Work from the cleaned to the uncleaned surface.
• Allow the cleaned surface to dry completely before walking on it or placing furniture on it. This prevents pressure marks or rust stains.
• To change the device's position during use, grip the device by the carrying handle (10).

Carpet Cleaning

• Nozzle: Carpet Cleaning Nozzle (22)
• Normal Soiling: Spray cleaning solution and vacuum in one working step. Vacuuming again without spraying reduces drying time.
• Heavy Soiling: Spray cleaning solution with the suction turbine switched off. Let it work for a few minutes. Then clean as with normal soiling.

Upholstery Cleaning

• Nozzle: Upholstery Cleaning Nozzle (25)
• Notes: For sensitive fabrics: use less cleaning agent.
