Do not point tools toward people or pets.
4. Dry hands and plug carpet cleaner into a
properly grounded outlet.
5. Turn carpet cleaner on. If necessary, refer

6. Gently press the tool onto the fabric. Press
the trigger and slowly pull the nozzle over
the fabric (Fig. 3.15).

vent streaking.
Make additional strokes without pressing the
trigger to remove more moisture.
8. To clean in corners or creases, lift the tool
one-half inch from the fabric and press the
solution trigger.
9. Vacuum up the solution with the tool

sary to repeat the cleaning process. Make
crisscrossing strokes to the original pattern;
overlap each pass (Fig. 3.16).
Make no more than 2 passes with the solu-
tion over any one area to prevent over-wet-
ting and damage to fabric.
If additional cleaning is necessary, wait until
the upholstery is completely dry before using
the tool again.
