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.
