2.12 2.13

DIRTY WATER TANK

(lower tank)

The Dirty Water Tank holds the dirty solution that is

picked up from the surface being cleaned.

When the Dirty Water Tank is full, the automatic

shut-off will engage, suction will stop and the tank

must be emptied (see Automatic Shut-Off section).

How to Empty

Turn cleaner off and unplug from electrical outlet.

To prevent possible leaking, remove clean water

tank by pressing down on tank handle and pulling

forward;set tank aside(do notset tank onfurniture).

2.14 Turn Dirty Water Tank latches (G) outward

(one on each side of tank). Raise handle straight up

and lift tank off cleaner. Carry tank to sink or drain.

2.15 Lower handle toward back of tank to unlock lid.

Lift lid off tank.

Empty tank and reposition lid.

For full suction, it is important that the Dirty Water

Tank lid is properly secured before cleaning.

Raise tank handle to carrying position and place it

onto cleaner. Lower handle to front of tank.

Turn latches (one on each side of tank) inward to

lock tank in place.

2.14 2.15

IMPORTANT

Make sure the tank handle is moved forward to

lock the tank lid before putting cleaner in upright

position. Failure to secure properly may result

in damage to the tank handle and may cause

poor suction.

Actual model may vary from images shown.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN CLEANING

a.Vacuum thoroughly -For carpet, use a HOOVER®

vacuum cleaner with an agitator for best results.

Vacuum upholstery with a vacuum cleaner with

cleaning tool attachments. Use a crevice tool to

reach into tufts and folds. Do not use the carpet

cleaner as a dry vacuum cleaner.

b. For upholstery, check cleaning code - Use your

HOOVER®carpet cleaner only if the upholstery

fabric is marked with a “W” (for “wet” clean) or “S/W”

(for “solvent/dry” or “wet” clean). Do not clean fabric

marked “S” (“solvent/dry” clean only). If your

upholstery does not have a code, seek professional

assistance.

c. Test for colorfastness - Wet a white absorbent

cloth with the detergent. In a small, hidden area,

gently rub the surface with the dampened cloth.

Wait ten minutes and check for color removal or

bleed with white paper towel or cloth. If surface has

more than one color, check all colors.

d. When cleaning entire floor, move furniture out of

area to be cleaned (may not be necessary if only

high traffic areas are to be cleaned). For furniture

too heavy to move, place aluminum foil or wax

paper under legs. This will prevent wood finishes

from staining carpet. Pin up furniture skirts and

draperies.

e. Pretreat spots and heavy traffic areas with

HOOVER®Spot & Stain Spray Cleaner*- Follow

Directions on bottle.

f. To prevent staining, use plastic or aluminum foil to

protect wood or metal surfaces from possible water

spray.

g. To avoid wetting and possible damage to wood

floors underneath area rugs/carpet, either move

area rugs/ carpet to a non-wood hard floor surface

or place waterproof material (e.g. plastic)

underneath them before cleaning.

*Available at additional cost if not included with your

model.

3. HOW TO CLEAN

AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF

When the Dirty Water Tank (lower tank) is full the automatic shut off mechanism

will shut off the cleaner suction (suction will be noticeably reduced).

2.16At that time, the yellow float disk will rise to the top of the Dirty Water Tank

lid (B). The cleaner will no longer pick up dirty solution and the motor sound will

become noticeably higher in pitch.

When this happens, turn cleaner off and empty Dirty Water Tank before

continuing use.

Check clean water tank also; it may need to be refilled.

Do not use without float and float retainer in place. If broken or dislodged, take

to an Authorized Dealer for repair.
