Automatic shut off
When the recovery tank (lower tank) is full the automatic shutoff mechanism will shut off the deep cleaner suction (suction will be noticeably reduced).
At that time, the yellow float disk will rise to the top of the recovery tank lid (B). The deep cleaner will no longer pick up dirty solution and the motor sound will become noticeably higher in pitch.
When this happens, turn deep cleaner off and empty recovery 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 dis- lodged, take to an Authorized Hoover Service Center or Dealer for repair.
