3. How to clean
Before you begin
cleaning
a. Vacuum thoroughly - For carpet,
use a HOOVER vacuum cleaner with an
agitator for best results. Vacuum uphol-
stery with a vacuum cleaner with clean-
ing tool attachments. Use a crevice tool
to reach into tufts and folds. Do not use
the SteamVac™ carpet cleaner as a
dry vacuum cleaner.
b. For upholstery, check cleaning
code - Use your HOOVER SteamVac™
carpet cleaner only if the upholstery
fabric is marked with a "W" (for "wet"
clean) or "S/W" (for "solvent/dry" or
"wet" clean). Do not clean fabric
marked "S" ("solvent/dry" clean
only). If your upholstery does not have
a code, seek professional assistance.
c. Test for colorfastness - Wet a white
absorbent cloth with the detergent. In a
small, hidden area, gently rub the surface
with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes
and check for color removal or bleed with
white paper towel or cloth. If surface has
more than one color, check all colors.
