hooks for convenient storage.

Before you begin cleaning:

Don't use the carpet cleaner
as a dry vacuum cleaner.
Use your Hoover portable
®
carpet cleaner only if
upholstery fabric is marked
with a "W" (for "wet" clean)
or "S/W" (for "solvent/dry"
or "wet" clean). Don't clean
fabric marked "S" ("solvent/
dry" clean only).
Test for colorfastness in a
small, hidden area. Gently
rub surface with a dampened
white cloth. Wait ten minutes
and check for color removal
or bleed with a white
paper towel.
Move furniture out of area to
be cleaned. Place aluminum
foil or wax paper under
legs of furniture too heavy
to move to prevent wood
finishes from staining carpet.
Pin up furniture skirts
and draperies.
ATTENTION
Some Berber, Natural Fiber, and
Soft Fiber carpets can fuzz with
wear. Some vacuums & carpet
cleaners can worsen this carpet
wear. Test a hidden area before
using on a full room & consult
with your carpet manufacturer on
cleaning recommendations.
NOTE: To prevent staining,
use plastic or aluminum foil
to protect wood or metal
surfaces from possible
water spray.
NOTE: To avoid damage
to wood floors underneath
area rugs or carpet, place
waterproof material (e.g.
plastic) underneath them
before cleaning.
