Frequently Asked Questions - Conga 7000 Carpetspot Clean Steam Xxl CECOTEC

Can I use the Conga 7000 CarpetSpot Clean Steam XXL on thick carpets?

Yes, the motorized brush and suction power can handle thick carpets. It is advisable to test first on an inconspicuous area and not to saturate the carpet with water.

How do I descale the appliance?

Mix a solution of water and white vinegar (1/3 vinegar to 2/3 water) in the tank, run the appliance, then rinse with clean water. Do not use corrosive products.

Is the water tank removable?

Yes, the upper tank can be easily removed for filling and cleaning. The dirt recovery tank is also removable and washable with water.

What should I do if suction is weak?

Check that the filter is clean and that the nozzles are not blocked. Clean the tanks and make sure the water tank lid is properly closed.

Can I add cleaning products to the water?

It is recommended to use hot water without foaming detergent. If you wish to use a product, use a special steam cleaning solution in small amounts, but this may reduce the steam effectiveness.

How do I clean the brush after use?

Remove the brush if it is detachable, rinse it under lukewarm water and let it air dry before putting it back. Never put it in the dishwasher.

Can the appliance be used on a fabric sofa?

Yes, it is suitable for upholstery fabrics. Check the sofa's care label. Use the fabric nozzle and avoid over-wetting.

How long does it take to get steam?

Steam production generally starts within 30 seconds after turning on. The steam is continuous as long as the tank contains water.

Why does the appliance turn off during use?

The overheat protection may activate if the tank is empty or if the ventilation openings are blocked. Turn off the appliance, let it cool for 30 minutes and check the water level.

Where can I find spare parts for the Conga 7000?

3. Storage

After use, the hose can be coiled up in the cord winder, which is located at the bottom of the upholstery cleaner.

Warning

• It is normal for the surface to be wet after spraying.
• Do not spray water continuously over the same spot.
• Switch off the appliance before unplugging it.
• After use, hang the coiled power cable on the power cable holder.

5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning embedded dirt

Warning:

• You can add low-foam detergent in the clean-water tank or apply it directly on the stain.
• Make sure the detergent will not damage the soiled surface before using it.
• Do not use thinners, aniline, chloroform, or flammable detergents.

Recommended liquids

• Alkaline ionised water.
• Low-foam detergent to the clean water tank combined with water in a 5:10 proportion.
• Citric acid
• Water with hydrochloric acid.

Non-recommended liquids

• Neutral kitchen detergent
• Alkaline detergent

• Acid detergent.

• Apply detergent over the soiled surface, spray clean water, and scrub the dirt with a brush to bring it to the surface.

• Vacuum the dirt and do not let any detergent remain.

Warning:

• To know the detergent quantity and use, carefully read the manufacturer instructions.
• Stop using the appliance when the water or foam in the waste-water tank reaches the

maximum water level and clean the waste-water tank. Otherwise, water may enter the appliance.

Warning

• This appliance is designed to clean soft fabrics such as cloth and plush.
• It is not recommended for use on hard surfaces.
• When using the upholstery cleaner, water should first be sprayed on and then vacuumed up. Do not vacuum up dirt directly, as this appliance is not a vacuum cleaner.

Warning

• Stop the appliance and unplug it from the mains before cleaning it.
• Do not wet the appliance to avoid the risk of electric shock.
• Do not use detergents, thinners, benzene, or other chemical agents to clean the appliance.
• After every use, you must remove and clean the waste-water tank, the clean-water tank, and the suction nozzle to prevent humidity and dirt remains from emitting bad odours.

5.1 Cleaning the main body

• The most common dirt can be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth.
• The most stubborn dirt can be cleaned with a cloth slightly soaked in detergent and then a cloth slightly soaked in water.

5.2 Waste-water tank cleaning Fig. 5

1. When the wastewater reaches the maximum level, stop using the appliance and unplug it from the mains.
2. Remove the waste-water tank. To do so, slide the waste-water tank release tab and remove the waste-water tank.
3. Remove the upper cover of the waste-water tank and empty the wastewater.
4. Clean the tank, the top cover and the sealing strip.
5. Place the waste-water tank in the main body of the appliance.

Warning

• Do not lean or shake the waste-water tank when transporting or assembling it; otherwise, wastewater will easily leak.
• We recommend you empty the wastewater before it exceeds the maximum level on the tank; if you continue using the tank after the wastewater has exceeded the maximum water level, the appliance will automatically stop vacuuming up water.
• To maintain the performance of the upholstery cleaner, clean the waste-water tank regularly. If the water in the tank is too dirty, the suction power will decrease. In addition, the waste-water tank must be cleaned when the water level reaches the "MAX" mark.

5.3 Cleaning the clean-water tank. Fig. 6.

When the clean-water tank is empty, fill it up.

To fill the clean-water tank, turn off the appliance, remove the clean-water tank, open the cover and add water.
