Getting Started - Vax Compact Power CWCPV011 Manual

GETTING STARTED

PLEASE READ THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON PAGES 2 & 3 BEFORE USE.
IMPORTANT: Carpets should be dry vacuumed thoroughly before washing.
• Test for colourfastness - Wet a white absorbent cloth with the solution. In a small hidden area of your carpet/rugs/upholstery,
gently rub with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for colour removal or bleed with a white paper towel or cloth.
Check all carpets/rugs/upholstery material before first use and if your carpet has more than one colour, check all colours.
• Test all flooring/carpets/rugs before first usage. Run the machine over a small hidden area. If no damage or pile distortion
occurs continue cleaning.
• When using the machine, basic safety precautions should always be observed. Do not over saturate your carpets and continue
using dry strokes until little water is visibly passing through the nozzle.
• When cleaning an entire room, move furniture out of the area to be cleaned. If the furniture cannot be moved, place aluminium
foil or wax paper under the legs. This will prevent wood finishes from staining your carpet. Pin up furniture skirts and curtains.
• Only use VAX carpet solution. Using other solutions may cause excess foaming and will invalidate the guarantee.
• For heavily soiled areas, it may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process. Make criss-crossing strokes across the original
pattern and overlap with each pass.
• The clean water tank should only be filled with warm water (max 40�C). Filling the clean water tank with hot/boiling water will
damage your machine and invalidate the guarantee.
• Empty and rinse out clean and dirty water tanks and leave to air dry before storage. Do not leave solution stored in the tanks
between uses.
• This is a powerful machine, before plugging in make sure all controls are turned off and hold the machine firmly when starting
and during use.
WARNING: The machine has a constantly rotating brushbar. Never leave the machine in one spot for an extended period of time
as this may damage the floor surface. To prevent any damage being sustained test on an inconspicuous area of the flooring.
