Use & Care Guide

Care & Cleaning
Vacuuming:
Once a week will do. (More often in heavy trafc areas.) This is an effective
way to remove dirt before it becomes embedded in the pile of the carpet.
For best results, empty your vacuum bag when half full.
Preventative Measures:
Place absorbent mats at entrances to your home. Change or wash when
these mats become dirty.
Regularly change lters in your heating and air conditioning system.
Clean high-trafc areas periodically with a suitable cleaning agent.
Do not apply stain repellent treatments that contain any silicone, because
they tend to accelerate carpet soiling.
Spot & Stain Removal:
Always follow the manufacturer’s directions when using commercial
products.
Blot up liquids with paper towel or absorbent cloth. Scoop up solids with
the end of a knife or spoon.
Use a light, colorfast cotton cloth for the treatment of spots.
Treat the spot with a removal agent that is explicitly recommended for
cleaning carpets and rugs and leaves no sticky residue.
Always work from the outer edge towards the center to prevent spreading.
It is a good idea to replace the cotton cloth as soon as it’s soiled.
Carefully rinse the area with clean water and a sponge after having cleaned
it. Do not soak the carpet pile. Afterwards, blot as dry as possible with a
clean towel, or with a hairdryer.
