CLEANING METHODS
Normal dirty carpets
Spray cleaning solution and use
suction immediately
Using suction again shortens the
drying time
Very dirty carpets
Only spray cleaning solution
Wait 10-15 min.
Use suction to remove cleaning
solution
Cleaning upholstery
Attach the hand nozzle (special
attachment) instead of floor nozzle
for cleaning upholstery
Use the appropriate attachments
for cleaning steps, wall carpets, or
motor vehicle-interiors
For sensitive materials use lower
amounts of the cleaning agent,
spray the surface from
approx. 200 mm away. Use
suction afterwards to remove
solution
Rinsing
One obtains a better result when
the surface to be cleaned is rinsed
again with clear water
Remains of the cleaning agent
and loosened dirt are then rinsed
out
Working tips
The more sensitive the carpet, the
smaller the amount of cleaning
agent
Carpets with jute backings can
shrink and the colours can bleed if
the treatment is too wet
High pile carpets should be
brushed off first
Cleaning with warm water (up to
max. 75°C) is more effective.
Check the temperature stability of
the surface to be cleaned.
Spray very dirty areas beforehand
Work from light to dark areas
(from window to doors)
Work from clean areas to dirty
ones
Treat carpet with
Care Tex RM 762 after cleaning
(accessory).
Wait until cleaned surface is dry
before walking on it
Use de-foaming agent
RM 761 (accessory) for
shampooed carpets.
