TO CLEAN CARPET (Figures 11 and 12)
11WARNING:
Do not push forward! Pull the cleaner towards you to clean. This cleaner has been specifically designed to place the nozzle deep into the carpet. (Figure 11).
12Push down gently on
the handle to lift the nozzle out of the carpet, to move forward and reposition the cleaner (Figure 12).
IMPORTANT: Adjust the speed of the cleaning stroke to your carpet conditions. Heavily soiled or stained carpets will require slower strokes.
To Prepare Carpet
Avoid oversaturating the carpet.
Always vacuum thoroughly before using the ORECK STEEMER carpet cleaner. It provides excellent carpet cleaning on carpeted surfaces that are free of surface debris.
To achieve best results, high traffic areas and carpet stains should be pretreated prior to cleaning. We recommend STEEMER Full Release™ Professional Spot & Stain PreCleaner.
CAUTION: Before cleaning a carpet for the first time, test a small area for color fastness.
Pour a small amount of STEEMER Full Release™ Professional Carpet Cleaner on a clean white cloth and blot carpet. Examine this cloth for color removal; if color appears on the cloth, the carpeting is not colorfast and should not be cleaned with the ORECK STEEMER wet extraction process.
This product is not recommended for use on carpets made from silk, velvet, wool and some cotton blends.

Cleaner Spray Button
STEP 1: Place On/Off power switch in the “On” position. (Figure 13).
STEP 2: To clean the carpet, press the gray button in the handle (Figure 14) and slowly pull the cleaner backwards (Figure 11). Pressing the button releases the cleaner and water mixture onto the carpet. As you pull the nozzle over the sprayed carpet, the nozzle extracts the solution from the carpet and stores the dirty water in the recovery tank. To move forward, slightly tilt the nozzle off the floor and roll the cleaner forward (Figure 12). Repeat Step 2 working in small overlapping rows for even cleaning until the entire room has been completed.
