How often should I wash the filter?

Wash the HEPA filter at least once a month. More frequently if you have pets or use the vacuum heavily. Let it air dry for 24 hours before reinstalling. Never use a wet filter.

The vacuum has lost suction, what should I do?

Check for blockages in the hose, wand, and brush roll. Empty the dust bin if full. Clean or replace the filter. Ensure the brush roll is free of hair and debris.

Can I use it on hardwood floors?

Yes, it is safe for hardwood floors. Use the appropriate floor setting or turn off the brush roll if provided. The included soft bristle brush head is ideal for hard floors.

How do I clean the brush roll?

Turn off and unplug the vacuum. Remove the brush roll cover (refer to manual). Use scissors or a seam ripper to cut away tangled hair and fibers. Wipe the brush roll with a damp cloth.

What is the warranty period?

Is the vacuum bagless?

Product Description

This carpet and upholstery cleaner is perfect for removing unwanted spots and stains on carpets around the home or on other small areas of fabric such as car seats, chairs and sofas.

Note: the carpet cleaner is designed to clean only small areas of carpet or fabric.

Before First Use

1. Carefully remove your appliance from the packaging and remove all packing materials.
2. To avoid danger, always keep packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) away from children. Dispose of the packaging in a responsible manner.
3. Check that the main product, the accessories, the power cord and the plug are in good condition and show no signs of damage.

Instructions for Use

Preparing the upholstery or carpet to be cleaned

1. Vacuum the area fully; if possible, remove all furniture from the carpet area to be cleaned. If large pieces of furniture can't be moved, place plastic sheeting around the base to protect it from any water damage to the legs.

Instructions for Use

1. Check the upholstery or carpets colour-fastness. Dip a piece of white fabric into the cleaning solution that you are using (see section "Preparing the Cleaner/Filling the Fresh Water Tank") and carefully rub a hidden part of the area to be cleaned. If the fabric does not discolour, you can clean the surface safely with the chosen solution and cleaner. For multi-coloured surfaces test all colours for colour-fastness.

Preparing the cleaner/filling the freshwater tank

CAUTION! Only use commercially available carpet and upholstery cleaning fluids, this includes Swan's Dirtmaster Carpet Detergent 250ml (SDMWDV250) and 1L (SDMWDV1000).

Do not use any high foaming cleaners as an excessive amount of foam impairs the function of the cleaner and can block the vent.

1. Hold the cleaner by the handle and release the freshwater tank by holding the 2 upper indentations and pulling until the tank comes off.
2. The refilling cap on the base of the clean water tank should be unscrewed and removed.
3. Fill the tank with the chosen cleaner and warm water to a (maximum of 40° C), following the ratio mixing levels for water to cleaning solution. It is advised to do this in a jug prior to filling the tank.
4. Fill the freshwater tank to the 'Max' level, replace the cap and mount the tank back onto the cleaner. Apply slight pressure and it will snap back into its location.

Instructions for Use

Cleaning carpet / upholstery

CAUTION! When the cleaner is turned off residual water or cleaning fluid may leak out, it is advised that you have a cloth ready during use to lay the cleaner on when not in use.

1. Plug the cleaner into an easily accessible socket close to the working area and turn on the power.
2. Push the on/off switch to I position.
3. Push the cleaner forward in a straight line on the carpet/upholstery. To spray cleaning solution onto the area, press the spray button and make gentle forward and backward movements to work the solution into any stubborn stains.
4. Now go back over the treated area and the dirty water will be vacuumed up.
5. Repeat this slightly overlapping the area you have treated.
6. In the event of really stubborn stains, go over the area several times, allowing the area to dry between each clean.
7. When the dirty water tank fills to the 'Max' level mark, it needs to be emptied (see "Cleaning and Maintenance" section).
8. When you have finished cleaning, turn the cleaner off and remove the plug from the socket.

After Use
