TIPS

As your VAX is very powerful, you may find that the dust bag fills up quickly the first time that you use your VAX.

WHEN WASHING CARPETS, ALWAYS TEST FOR COLOUR FASTNESS, WITH SOME UNDILUTED CLEANER ON A HIDDEN AREA.

When washing deep pile carpets, move the washing tool in the same direction as the pile lays.

Start from the furthest corner of the room and work backwards towards the door.

If you are washing very dirty carpets, you may have to wash them several times over a period of time to bring the dirt to the surface.

Metal or wooden furniture legs may mark a wet carpet, wait until the carpet is dry before replacing furniture or cover legs with aluminium foil.

Do not allow children or animals onto your carpet until it has had time to dry.
