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. Fill Solution Tank with water and repeat. For
heavily soiled areas, repeat. Avoid saturating carpet.
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.
!!
NOTE: Empty Dirty Water Tank when the motor sound
becomes higher pitched and there is a loss in suction
(see “Automatic shut-o”). You will also see the float
rise and shut o suction at the same time.
IMPORTANT
For full suction, it is important that the Dirty Water Tank
is properly secured before cleaning.
