piCkinG up spills

®
Your HOOVER SteamVac
be used to pick up small liquid spills (1 gallon or less,
never to exceed 1/4 inch in depth) on carpet,
upholstery, or bare floors.
For best results, pick up spills immediately by placing
the stair/upholstery nozzle (Available on select
models only) just above the spill and suction up any
residue on top of the carpet. If the spill remains, place
either the stair/ upholstery nozzle or floor nozzle with
brushes turned OFF in front of the spill, pull the
nozzle very slowly over the spill initially with suction
only. Repeat with spray and suction.
When picking up spills on bare floors, use only the
floor nozzle with the bare floor attachment (Available
on select models. Bare floor attachment sold
separately) in place and speed selector in the OFF
position (this will help prevent spreading the spill).

IMPORTANT
To avoid saturating carpet, do not use more
than 4 wet strokes over one area. Always end
with dry strokes.
If a spot is left, the stair/upholstery nozzle is generally
more effective for removing it. Although no cleaning
solution can completely remove all spots, they can
be treated by following the instructions provided by
the manufacturer of the carpet, upholstery, or bare
floor surface being cleaned.
Do not use the SteamVac
flammable or combustible liquids or chemicals.
