2-in-1 Antimicrobial Tool*:

Antimicrobial tool that helps prevent bacteria growth and odors allows you to choose between two inserts.

A. The rubber nub insert is for unpleasant stain removal and hygienic clean ups

B. The bristle insert is for tough scrubbing power

Before You Begin Cleaning

Vacuum carpet and upholstery thoroughly with a Hoover vacuum before use.

Don’t use the carpet cleaner as a traditonal vacuum cleaner.

Use your Hoover carpet cleaner only if upholstery fabric is marked with a “W” (for “wet” clean) or “S/W” (for “solvent/dry” or “wet” clean). Don’t clean fabric marked “S” (“solvent/dry” clean only).

Test for colorfastness in a small, hidden area. Gently rub surface with a dampened white cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for color removal or bleed with a white paper towel.

Move furniture out of area to be cleaned. Place aluminum foil or wax paper under legs of furniture too heavy to move to prevent wood finishes from staining carpet. Pin up furniture skirts and draperies.

Pretreat spots and heavy traffic areas with a Hoover® Cleaning Solution*. See the “Cleaning Solutions” section.

*Available at additional cost if not included with your model.

Pretreating:

For best results, pretreat stains with a Hoover spot treatment (see Hoover Cleaning Solution Guide, pg. 18) to help loosen and remove even the most stubborn stains.

NOTE: To prevent staining, use plastic or aluminum foil to protect wood or metal surfaces from possible water spray.

NOTE: To avoid damage to wood floors underneath area rugs or carpet, place waterproof material (ex: plastic) underneath them before cleaning

CAUTION Do not clean over floor electrical outlets. Water will drip from the brushes and underside of the product after use and may puddle. To avoid damage to wood and laminate flooring and to avoid potential slip hazard, after use (a) do not leave the product on wood and laminate surfaces and move to a hard surface and (b) place unit on an absorbent material (such as a towel) to soak up drips.

IMPORTANT For full suction, it is important that the Dirty Water Tank is properly secured before cleaning.

Continue using dry strokes until little water is visible passing through the nozzle. For best results, Hoover recommends rinsing carpet with water only. This removes residual carpet cleaning solution. Remove Solution Tank and repeat. For heavily soiled areas, repeat. Avoid saturating carpet.

NOTE: Empty Dirty Water Tank when the motor sound becomes higher pitched and there is a loss in suction (see “Automatic shut-off”). You will also see the float rise and shut off suction at the same time.
