Special Features of your SpotBot

™

Congratulations on the purchase of your new SpotBot, Handsfree Compact Deep Cleaner. SpotBot will become a household favorite for cleaning the spots and stains that occur in your home.

SpotBot was designed for use in cleaning up various types of spots and stains. Spots and stains can happen when we know about it…a child spills a glass of juice or a cup of coffee is knocked off an end table. Some spots and stains happen when we aren’t even aware of them, such as pet stains or when a child “forgets” to tell you they spilled.

SpotBot is a revolutionary and unique design by the leader in Home Cleaning Innovation. Since SpotBot is a unique product in the marketplace, please review the summary below of commonly used terms and phrases throughout this manual:

Once you have selected your cycle, your SpotBot has been designed to spray, brush, and suction up the spots and stains.

It also takes the guesswork out of cleaning for you. The 2 types of cleaning cycles are.

Manual /Hose This mode allows you to remove the Vacuum Flex Hose and clean upholstery, car interiors, stairs or anywhere you would like to work on the stain yourself.

Automatic Smart System Status Indicators These lights will inform you of what is going on during one of the cycles you have chosen – either Surface or Set-In. When the cycle is complete you will see the “Finish” light illuminate and hear a “beep”.
