Hoover Deep Cleaner Lubrication, Storage, If you have a problem, Problem Machine won’t run

Cleaning upholstery and automobile interiors

Read “Before you begin cleaning” instructions on page 7. Be sure to check the cleaning code on your upholstery. Use your deep cleaner only on upholstery marked “W” or “W/S”.

Attach hose and solution tube as instructed on pages 9 and 10. Fill clean solution tank according to instructions on pages 5 -6. Use 5 ounces of HOOVER Carpet/Upholstery Detergent.

Dry hands and plug deep cleaner into a properly grounded outlet.

Turn deep cleaner ON.

Gently press the nozzle onto the fabric. Press the solution trigger and slowly pull the nozzle over the fabric.

Overlap strokes by one-half inch to help prevent streaking. Make additional strokes without pressing the trigger to remove more moisture.

To clean in corners or creases, lift the nozzle one-half inch from the fabric and press the solution trigger. Vacuum up the solution with the nozzle without pressing the trigger.

For heavily soiled areas, it may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process. Make crisscrossing strokes to the original pattern; overlap each pass.

Make no more than 2 passes with the solution over any one area to prevent overwetting and damage to fabric.

If additional cleaning is necessary, wait until the upholstery is completely dry before using the nozzle again.

When finished cleaning, follow “After cleaning” instructions on page 8 and “After using stair/upholstery nozzle” instructions on pages 10-11.
