GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug (A). The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet (B) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is not available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (B) can be installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground (G) such as a properly grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.



CAUTION - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE:
- Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with this product, as they may cause damage.
- Store appropriately indoors in a dry place. Do not expose machine to freezing temperatures.
- To assist in reducing drying time, be certain the area is well ventilated when using detergents and other cleaners with this machine.
- To help prevent matting and resoiling, avoid contact with carpets until they are dry. Keep children and pets away from carpets until they are completely dry.
- Do not store extractor with solution in tanks.
- With brushrolls on, do not allow cleaner to sit in one location for an extended period of time, as damage to the floor can result.
- Do not use this extractor and accessories on hard floors. Using this machine on hard floors may scratch or damage your floor.
- Water will drip from the brushes and underside of the product after use and may puddle. To avoid damage to wood and laminate flooring and to avoid potential slip hazard, after use (a) do not leave the product on wood and laminate surfaces and remove to a hard surface and (b) place unit on absorbent material (such as a towel) to soak up drips.
- Do not use sharp objects to clean out hose as they can cause damage.

before you begin cleaning
- Vacuum thoroughly - For carpet, use a HOOVER® vacuum cleaner with an agitator for best results. Vacuum upholstery with a vacuum cleaner with cleaning tool attachments. Use a crevice tool to reach into tufts and folds. Do not use the carpet cleaner as a dry vacuum cleaner.
- For upholstery, check cleaning code - Use your HOOVER carpet washer only if the upholstery fabric is marked with a "W" (for "wet" clean) or "S/W" (for "solvent/dry" or "wet" clean). Do not clean fabric marked "S" ("solvent/dry" clean only). If your upholstery does not have a code, seek professional assistance.
- Test for colorfastness - Wet a white absorbent cloth with the solution. In a small, hidden area, gently rub the surface with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for color removal or bleed with white paper towel or cloth. If surface has more than one color, check all colors.
- When cleaning entire floor, move furniture out of area to be cleaned (may not be necessary if only high traffic areas are to be cleaned).



For furniture too heavy to move, place aluminum foil or wax paper under legs. This will prevent wood finishes from staining carpet. Pin up furniture skirts and draperies.
- Pretreat spots and heavy traffic areas with an appropriate Hoover Cleaning Solutions, see "Cleaning Solutions" section. Follow Directions on bottle.
*Available at additional cost if not included with your model. - To prevent staining, use plastic or aluminum foil to protect wood or metal surfaces from possible water spray.
- To avoid wetting and possible damage to wood floors underneath area rugs/carpet, either move area rugs/ carpet to a non-wood hard floor surface or place waterproof material (e.g. plastic) underneath them before cleaning.
reMove and rePlace clean Water Solution tanK
CAUTION
Do not fill with water above 140^ (60^)
3.1 Press Clean Water Solution Tank button on handle (A). Tilt Clean Water Solution Tank away from cleaner and remove (B).
3.2 Rotate measuring cap counter-clockwise from the top of Clean Water Solution Tank and pull up to remove.
3.3 Fill Clean Water Solution Tank with hot tap water to fill line.
3.4 Fill measuring cap with cleaning solution 3 times, (approximately 3 oz.). Pour into clean water solution tank and replace measuring cap.
3.5 Place clean water solution tank back on handle until it snaps in.
NOTE: Using more than the recommended amount of cleaning solution may cause excessive foaming.
CAUTION
DO NOT USE THIS EXTRACTOR AND ACCESSORIES ON HARD FLOORS. USING THIS MACHINE ON HARD FLOORS MAY SCRATCH OR DAMAGE YOUR FLOOR.
CAUTION
Do not clean over floor electrical outlets.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock due to internal component damage, use only HOOVER® cleaning fluid intended for use with the appliance.
CARPET CLEANING
3.6 Plug cord into electrical outlet. Step on handle release pedal, to put unit in cleaning position.
3.7 Step on power switch to turn machine ON (I=ON).
3.8 Squeeze trigger (C) to apply cleaning solution and slowly push cleaner forward (equals one wet stroke). Continue to squeeze trigger and slowly pull cleaner back toward you (second wet stroke).
3.9 Release trigger and slowly push cleaner forward over area just sprayed with solution (dry stroke). Then slowly pull cleaner back toward you without squeezing trigger (dry stroke). Continue using dry strokes until little water is visible passing through the nozzle (Pass over the same area a minimum of 4 times = 2 while squeezing the trigger and 2 without).
For spots and high traffic areas use CLEAN BOOST™. To use CLEAN BOOST™ to remove those tough stains, apply extra cleaning solution by squeezing the trigger as you normally would and also pressing the Clean Boost™ trigger at the same time.
NOTE: For best results, use straight, parallel strokes. Overlap strokes by 1 inch to help prevent streaking.









CAUTION
Detergents contain Anionic and Nonionic Surfactants. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. In case of contact with eyes, flush with cold water for 15 minutes. In case of contact with skin, wash with water. If irritation persists, call a physician.
Keep nozzle flat on floor for both forward and reverse strokes.
For best cleaning results and to aid in faster drying of carpet, end with more dry strokes. (Continue using dry strokes until little water is visible passing through the nozzle.)
NOTE: Empty Dirty Water Tank when the motor sound becomes higher pitched and there is a loss in suction (see "Automatic shut-off")
For best cleaning results, Hoover recommends to rinse the carpet with water only. This will remove residual carpet cleaning solution from your carpets. To rinse with water only, fill Solution Tank with water and repeat step 3.9.
For heavily soiled areas, repeat cleaning process. Avoid saturating carpet.
NOTE: It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes as described above.
Wrap cord around hooks for convenient storage. Attach the plug end to the cord.
DIRTY WATER TANK
Your carpet washer is equipped with a shut off float within your dirty water tank. When the dirty water tank becomes full, the float will rise, shutting off the air flow through the nozzle.
Once the float is activated, empty the dirty water tank. If the dirty water tank does not appear full, turn the power switch off and wait for the float to settle and reset. If the float repeatedly shuts off the suction, empty the dirty water tank. For best results, use only Hoover® brand cleaning solution. Other Solutions may generate excessive foam which will cause the float to rise prematurely and shut off the suction. A higher concentration of shampoo may cause excessive foaming.
How to Empty
3.10 Grasp dirty water tank handle and push latch to release. Pull tank out at a slight angle.
3.11 To empty dirty water tank, pull up on the 2 latches to open and remove top of tank to empty.
3.12 Replace tank lid with both latches locked after cleaning. Latches will snap when they are locked. Failure to do so will result in poor suction performance.
3.13 Insert dirty water tank back into the cleaner until it snaps into place.
NOTE: Do not open latches before removing tank from machine.
- IMPORTANT
Be sure to remove any debris that has accumulated in the screen above the float. If the screen becomes clogged, this may reduce the performance of your cleaner.
- IMPORTANT
To avoid saturating carpet, do not use more than 4 wet strokes over one area. Always end with dry strokes.
- IMPORTANT
If the sound of the motor changes to a high pitch, this indicates the dirty water tank is full and must be emptied.
CAUTION
Water will drip from the brushes and underside of the product after use and may puddle. To avoid damage to wood and laminate flooring and to avoid potential slip hazard, after use (a) do not leave the product on wood and laminate surfaces and remove to a hard surface and (b) place unit on absorbant material (such as a towel) to soak up drips.




- IMPORTANT
Do not store cleaner with solution in Clean Water Solution Tank or dirty water in Dirty Water Tank. Mineral deposits and mildew can form which will affect the performance of your carpet cleaner.
