Carpet Cleaning

When cleaning carpets and rugs, leave the steam regulator control set to “maximum.” Always test the steamer on a small surface area to determine if it is suitable for treatment with the steam cleaner. Use slow backward strokes and lift the powerhead slightly during forward strokes to reduce friction between the cloth and the carpet.

For Large Carpeted Areas

For smoother movement of the steamer over larger carpeted areas the car- pet glide attachment can be used:

1. Detach and remove the steam comb section from the carpet glide attachment.

2. Fold the cloth and place inside the carpet glide base.

3. Secure the powerhead inside the

 

carpet glide base and connect the

CLOTH

cloth to the attachment by using

 

the towel grips.

 

NOTE: On flat pile carpet unscrew and remove the corner gliders.
