Machine storage

Once your cleaning is complete, make sure the
2-in-1 water tank is emptied and rinsed out. Put
the unit away in a closet or basement for the next
use. The SmartMix tank can remain filled and
ready to go (store with machine set to water only
setting), or it can simply be emptied back into the
formula bottle if that is more convenient.
Note: Store cleaner in a protected, dry area.
Since this product uses water, it must not be
stored where there is a danger of freezing.
Freezing will damage internal components
and void the warranty.

Machine Care

For best results, a few simple steps can assure
your machine is well maintained after your
cleaning is complete.
1.
Turn power switch OFF ( 0 ). Unplug the machine
and wrap the power cord.
2.
After emptying the 2-in-1 water tank, rinse it out
at a faucet with running hot tap water, taking care
to clean underneath the heavy duty bladder, and
all around it. Clean out lint trap.
3.
Replace the 2-in-1 water tank on the machine.
4.
Clean out the flow indicator filter each time it is used
to ensure best cleaning performance. Unscrew the
flow indicator cap, lift out the red rotor and white
filter. Rinse all three parts with water. Replace the
filter and rotor. Replace the flow indicator cap. Turn
until snug, do not over-tighten.
5.
Any loose hair or debris can be pulled from the
brush roll if desired and thrown away.
6.
Wipe the machine's exterior with a soft cloth.
7.
After carpet is dry, vacuum again to remove
hair and fuzz.
