FOR FUTURE USE
This model is for household use only. Commercial use of this unit voids the manufacturer’s warranty.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician
or service person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is designed
for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding attachment
plug that looks like the plug in the illustration. Make certain that the
appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as
the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this appliance.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a grounded wiring system. If it
should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a safe path
of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical
shock. The cord for this appliance has
an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. It must only be
plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.

appliance and void the warranty. Chemical
spot cleaners or solvent-based soil removers
also should not be used. These products may
react with the plastic materials used in your

2. Unwrap vacuum flex hose completely from

3. Attach your selected cleaning tool to the
spray trigger unit by pressing tool onto spray
trigger firmly until the button lock snaps into
hole. Make certain the tool is securely attached.
4. Twist the quick release cord wrap clockwise
to unwrap the power cord completely from
onboard cord storage and plug into 120 Volt, 60
Hz grounded outlet as described in Important
Safety Instructions”, page 2.
5. Press power switch to ON position. Press the
red heater switch to “ON”. Within 30 seconds,
the heat indicator light will illuminate, indicating
the heater has reached the proper temperature.
6. Begin by pressing the spray trigger for 5-10
seconds to allow the non-heated water to travel
through the heater.
7. Press and hold spray trigger—spray will start
in a few seconds. Raise the tool slightly to check
for spray.
Pre-treating
Cleaning effectiveness will be enhanced if you
pre-treat heavily stained or highly-soiled areas.
Here’s how to do it:
1. Hold the cleaning tool just above the surface
of the carpet or upholstery to be cleaned. Press
the trigger to release a spray of cleaning solution
directly onto the soiled area.
2. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.
Cleaning with your Little Green PROheat
1. Hold the tool approximately 1” above the
soiled surface. Press the spray trigger to apply
the cleaning solution to the soiled area.
2. Using the brush on the tool, gently scrub
the area to be cleaned.
NOTE: When using the Deep Reach Tool
(select models), keep the tool in contact
with the carpet while spraying. If using the
TurboBrush® Tool, the switch should be
in the “BRUSH” position. This activates the
brush only.
3. For thorough cleaning, spray additional
solution while the brush and suction are in
contact with the surface.
» Deep cleaning stairs and high-trac areas on
a regular basis helps prolong carpet life.
Tips
» Check upholstery stung before cleaning.
Colored stung may bleed through the fabric
when it becomes wet.

IMPORTANT
Check the manufacturer’s tag before
cleaning upholstery. “W” or “WS” on the
tag means you can use your Little Green
ProHeat. If tag is coded with an “S” (with
diagonal strike-through), or says “Dry Clean
Only,” do not proceed. If manufacturer’s tag
is missing or not coded, check with your
furniture dealer.
WARNING
» If a significant amount of water and solution
remains in the clean tank, your unit can be stored
with liquid in the clean tank.

it toward you. The suction will remove the dirt
and cleaning solution. Continue until no more
dirt can be removed.

pressing the spray trigger) to remove as much
liquid/moisture as possible. Repeat this step as
often as necessary.

the switch to the “SUCTION” position. This
activates the suction to remove the dirt and
cleaning solution.

each use, OR when dirty water reaches the
indicated maximum fill line. To remove the tank,
lift up the dirty/collection Tank retainer lever and

trigger by pushing down on button lock and
pulling straight off (DO NOT twist tools to
remove them).

debris. If necessary, clean with soft bristle brush.
