How to Clean Upholstery and Small Areas
Important - Check Upholstery Tags:
Check manufacturer’s tag before cleaning. “W” or “WS” on the
1. tag means you can use your ProHeat. If the tag is coded with “X” or “S” (with a diagonal strike through), or says “Dry Clean Only,” do not proceed. The Scotchgard™ protectort is not rec- ommended for use on velvet, silk, 100% cotton upholstery, vinyl or leather. If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded, check with your furniture dealer.

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