EMPTIED.
Emptying and Cleaning the Dirty Water Tank
Your carpet cleaner is equipped with a shut off valve within your dirty water
tank. When the dirty water tank becomes full, the blue float (viewed from top of
tank) will rise, shutting off the air flow thru the nozzle.
NOTE: The float in your carpet cleaner, located in the dirty water tank lid,
will shut off the suction when the dirty water tank is full. For best results, use
smooth, steady motion keeping the nozzle flat against the carpeting. Tipping the
cleaner and breaking the seal of the nozzle and carpeting will cause the float to
rise and shut off the suction. Once the float is activated, empty the dirty water
tank. If the dirty water tank does not appear full, turn the power switch off and
wait for the float to settle and reset. If the float repeatedly shuts off the suction,
empty the dirty water tank. For best results, use only Hoover® brand detergent.
Other Solutions may generate excessive foam which will cause the float to rise
prematurely and shut off the suction. Use five capfuls (5 ounces) of Hoover®
brand detergent per fill up of the clean water reservoir. A higher concentration of
shampoo may cause excessive foaming.
NOTE: You will hear a noticeable change in the pitch of the cleaner. This indicates
a need to empty the dirty water tank.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM MOVING PARTS - UN-
PLUG BEFORE SERVICING.
