8. Release trigger and slowly push cleaner
forward over area just sprayed with solution
(dry stroke). Then slowly pull cleaner back
toward you without squeezing trigger (dry
stroke). Continue using dry strokes until little
water is visible passing through the Dirty Water
Tank lid (Pass over the same area a minimum
of 4 times = 2 while squeezing the trigger and
2 without).
note: For best results, use straight, parallel
strokes. Overlap strokes by 1 inch to help prevent
streaking.
9. Keep nozzle flat on floor for both forward and
reverse strokes.
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 Dirty Water Tank lid.)
Empty Dirty Water Tank when the motor sound
becomes higher pitched and there is a loss in
suction (see "Automatic shut-off").
When finished cleaning, follow "After Cleaning"
instructions on page 12.

after use

Allow carpet or upholstery to dry. To help prevent
matting and resoiling the carpet, keep children and
pets away from surface until it is completely dry. If it
is necessary to walk on damp carpet, place towels
or white cloths on the traffic areas.
If furniture must be replaced before the carpet is dry,
place plastic or aluminum foil under legs of furniture
so metal slides or wood finishes will not stain the
carpet.

10. For best cleaning results, Hoover recommends
to rinse the carpet with water only. This will
remove residual carpet cleaning solution from
your carpets. To rinse with water only, set
Wash/Rinse Selector to rinse (Fig. 30) and
repeat steps 7 and 8.
11. For heavily soiled areas, repeat cleaning
process. Avoid saturating carpet.
note: It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes
as described above.
IMPORTANT
To avoid saturating carpet, do not use more
than 4 wet strokes over one area. Always end
with dry strokes.
IMPORTANT
When brushes seem to be rotating slowly,
disconnect cleaner from electical outlet and
check and clean the screen behind the nozzle
(see arrow below).
