Safety Precautions & Warnings
IMPORTANT! Always ensure that the shampooer is switched off and that the power plug is
disconnected from the power supply before cleaning your shampooer, when not in use, or
attempting any maintenance task.
WARNING! The cleaner must only be connected to an AC power supply at the voltage
shown on the rating plate. This cleaner should only be used for its intended purpose as
described in these instructions. Never operate the carpet shampooer if the water level in
the Dirty Water Tank exceeds the Max Line.
When using your vacuum cleaner, basic
precautions should always be observed, including
the following;
1. This shampooer is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the shampooer by a person
responsible for their safety
2. Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the shampooer.
3. If the power cord is damaged it must be
replaced by an authorized service agent or
similarly qualified persons.
4. Carpets should be dry vacuumed thoroughly
before washing. Use a vacuum cleaner with a
power brush for best results.
5. If using an extension cord please make sure
that it is of an approved type and that it is fully
extended. Failure to do so could cause your
cleaner to overheat and damage it.
6. Do not run the shampooer over the power
cable and power socket on the floor.
7. Do not place cleaner on stairs or furniture, as it
may result in injury or damage.
8. Do not handle the power plug or cleaner with
wet hands.
9. Do not put any objects into the openings or
operate with the openings blocked. Keep them
free of anything that may reduce air flow.
10. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts
of the body away from openings and moving
parts.
11. Do not use this cleaner and accessories on
hard floors. Using this machine on hard floors
may scratch or damage your floor.
12. Do not use the carpet washer on any glowing,
burning or smoking particles.
13. Do not use without the solution tank and dirty
water tank in place.
14. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
15. Do not store cleaner with solution in tanks.
16. Do not use to pick up flammable or
combustible liquids such as petrol or use in
areas where they may be present
17. Only use the cleaning solution provided by
Godfreys.
18. Do not use any high-foaming solutions as
an excessive amount of foam impairs the
functioning of the shampooer. If unsuitable
cleaning solutions are used, this will void the
warranty.
