Maintenance and care

Machine storage

Once your cleaning is complete, make sure the 2-in-1 water tank is emptied, rinsed out, and dried before the next use. The formula tank can remain filled and ready to go.

Note: Store cleaner in a protected, dry area. Since this product uses water, it must not be stored where there is a danger of freezing. Freezing will damage internal components and void the warranty.

Machine care

For best results, a few simple steps can assure your machine is well maintained after your cleaning is complete.

1. Flush your machine of any remaining

Tip:

Let all parts dry com- pletely before storing

cord. Empty the 2-in-1 water tank.

3. Rinse out 2-in-1 water tank, with running hot

tap water, taking care to clean underneath

the heavy duty bladder, and all around it.

4. The top half of the tank can be rinsed clean

through the nozzle area. Also, pop out the

red filter underneath the top half of the tank

and rinse out. Replace before putting the

top and bottom halves of the tank together.

5. Before you place the cleaned 2-in-1 water

tank back onto the machine, simply unscrew

the floor nozzle using a Phillips head

screwdriver. This can be rinsed out at the

faucet. Then replace back onto the machine

by starting from the bottom of the nozzle and

hooking the tabs into the holes on the bottom

sides of the machine. Secure into place with

the screw.
