Assembling your carpet washer
NOTE: Do not saturate your carpet.
• Vacuum thoroughly.
• Test for colourfastness - Wet a white absorbent cloth with the solution. In a small, hidden area of your carpet,
gently rub the surface with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for colour removal or bleed with
white paper towel or cloth. If your carpet has more than one colour, check all colours.
• When cleaning an entire room, move furniture out of the area to be cleaned. If the furniture is too heavy to
move, place aluminium foil or wax paper under legs. This will prevent wood finishes from staining your
carpet. Pin up furniture skirts and curtains.
Before you begin cleaning
Wrap cord to store.
