Operations

Water filter vacuuming

IMPORTANT: Your cleaner is a water filtration cleaner. NEVER use it in Filter Vac mode without clean tap water in the collection tank. You MUST fill the collection tank with clean tap water to the clean water fill line on the back of the collection tank for the cleaner to function properly. Vacuuming in Filter Vac mode without clean water in the collection tank may cause damage to the motor.

C-1 Getting ready

1. Open Quick Release hose door, turn cleaning mode selector to “FILTER VAC”, then close hose door.

2. Remove top lid from collection tank and set aside.

3. Fill collection tank with clean tap water to clean water fill line on back of tank and place top lid back onto top of collection tank.

IMPORTANT: Never use cleaner in Filter Vac mode with Wet Clean solution tank in place as this could cause damage to the solution tank. Always have the tool caddy in place in Filter Vac mode.

5. Attach desired vacuum tool to end of wand (or directly to grip for smaller accessories).

6. Plug into a proper electrical socket and push power button on.

7. If cleaner loses suction, stop vacuuming and check collection tank level, pre-motor filter and post-motor filter.

8. Refer to section D for machine care instructions.

C-4 Upholstery Cleaning

1. Important! If using to wet clean upholstery, check the upholstery tags before hand.

a. Check manufacturer’s tag before

cleaning. “W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use your cleaner. If the tag is coded with an “X” or an “S” (with a diagonal stripe through it), or says “Dry Clean Only”, do not proceed with wet cleaning. Do not use on velvet or silk. If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded, check with the furniture maker or the furniture dealer.

inconspicuous place.
