CLEANING THE DIRTY WATER

keep your unit functioning properly and to prevent
any odors from building up, it is best to rinse out
your dirty water tank with fresh water after each use.

accumulated in the screen above the float. If the
screen becomes clogged, this may reduce the
performance of your cleaner.
