Continue using dry strokes until little water is visible
passing through the recovery tank lid.
For best results, use straight, parallel strokes. Overlap
strokes by 3cm to help prevent streaking. Keep nozzle flat
on floor for both forward and reverse strokes (Fig. 5/3).

If rinsing the carpet is desired, set Wash/Rinse switch to
RINSE (Fig. 5/4).
Fig.5/4
Rinsing is not necessary, but will help remove solution
residue and help your carpet look fresher.
For heavily soiled areas, repeat steps 5/2-5/4. Avoid
saturating carpet, as noted below.
NOTE: To avoid saturating carpet, do not use more
than 4 wet strokes over one area. Always end with dry
strokes.
It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes as described above.
For best cleaning results and to aid in faster drying of
carpet, end with more dry strokes. (Continue using dry
strokes until little water is visible passing through the
recovery tank lid.)
Empty recovery tank when the motor sound becomes
higher pitched and there is a loss in suction (see
"Automatic shut-off", Fig. 4/5).
When finished cleaning, follow "After cleaning"
instructions on page 10.
