How to clean upholstery and small areas

Important - Check Upholstery Tags:

1.Check manufacturer’s tag before cleaning. “W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use your POWERSTEAMER® PROHEAT™ PLUS. If the tag is coded with “X” or “S” (with a diagonal strike through), or says “Dry Clean Only,” do not proceed. Do not use on velvet or silk. If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded, check with your furniture dealer.

2.Check for colourfastness in an inconspicuous place.

3.If possible, check upholstery stuffing. Coloured stuffing may bleed through fabric when wet.

4.Plan activities to give upholstery time to dry.

5.Vacuum thoroughly to pick up loose debris and pet hair. Use a vacuum with a brush attachment and a crevice tool to clean in fabric folds and tufts.
