streaking.
Keep nozzle flat on floor for both forward
and reverse strokes.
7. For heavily soiled areas, repeat steps 4-6.

not use more than 4 wet strokes over
one area. Always end with dry
strokes.
It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes as
described above.
For best cleaning results and to aid in faster
drying of carpet, end with more dry strokes.
(Continue using dry strokes until little water
is visible passing through the recovery tank
lid.)
Empty recovery tank when the motor
sound becomes higher pitched and there is
a loss in suction (see "Automatic shut-off",
page 7).

Your HOOVER SteamVac™ carpet cleaner
may also be used to pick up small liquid
spills (1 gallon or less, never to
exceed 1/4 inch in depth) on carpet,
upholstery, or bare floors.
For best results, pick up spills immediately
by placing the stair/upholstery nozzle just
above the spill and suction up any residue
on top of the carpet. If the spill remains,
place either the stair/ upholstery nozzle or
floor nozzle in front of the spill, pull the
nozzle very slowly over the spill initially with
suction only. Repeat with spray and suction.
When picking up spills on bare floors,
use only the floor nozzle with the bare
floor attachment in place.
If a spot is left, the stair/upholstery nozzle is
generally more effective for removing it.
Although no cleaning solution can completely
remove all spots, they can be treated by follow-
ing the instructions provided by the manufac-
turer of the carpet, upholstery, or bare floor sur-
face being cleaned.
Do not use the SteamVac™ carpet clean-
er to pick up flammable or combustible
liquids or chemicals.
When finished, follow "After cleaning" instruc-
