Frequently Asked Questions - 07107 Cleanmaxx

How to prepare the appliance before first use?

Insert the handle into the opening of the tank support and fix it with the two provided screws. Place the clean water tank onto the support until it clicks. The dirty water tank is already in place. Plug the cord into a suitable outlet.

How to clean a carpet with this appliance?

First vacuum the carpet thoroughly. Fill the clean water tank with hot water (max. 40°C) and carpet cleaning solution. Press the on/off switch, then move the appliance forward while holding the solution dispensing button. Release the button at the end of the strip and pull the appliance back to suck up the dirty water. Repeat, overlapping the strips.

How to clean upholstery?

Use the provided upholstery nozzle. Connect it to the hose connection after lifting the cap. Turn on the appliance, run the nozzle along the furniture while holding the dispensing button, then go over again to suction. Proceed as for a carpet.

What to do if the appliance does not work?

Check that the plug is properly connected and that the outlet works. Check the fuse. If the overheat protection has activated, let the appliance cool down for about 60 minutes before restarting. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How to clean the water tanks?

Unplug the appliance. Empty the dirty water tank by removing it from the front, unscrew the cap clockwise, rinse with hot water and let dry. Remove the clean water tank, discard the residue, rinse and dry. Reassemble the dry tanks.

How to clean the carpet brush?

Place the appliance on the floor to access the underside. Imperatively empty the water tanks first. Press the stop and extract the brush. Rinse it under running hot water, dry it completely, then replace it by pressing until an audible click.

How to clean the upholstery nozzle?

Press the button on the nozzle guard to remove it from the hose. If necessary, remove the brush attachment by pressing the lower button. Rinse the nozzle and attachment thoroughly with hot water, let dry, then reassemble.

Which cleaning solution to use?

Use only the cleaning solution provided or special carpet preparations available commercially. Do not use highly foaming products. Follow the dosage instructions and always do a color test on an inconspicuous area.

What to do in case of stubborn stain?

Treat the stain targeted with a carpet cleaning solution. Apply it locally and use the appliance as usual. If the stain persists, repeat the process or contact a professional.

How to store the appliance after use?

Empty and rinse both water tanks, clean the brush and nozzles, let all parts dry. Wind the cord around the winding hooks. Place the appliance on a cloth as residual water may leak. Store it in a dry place.

1. Insert the fresh water container (2) into the container support (14). When you do this, make sure that the locking lugs on the fresh water container (1) fit in the recesses in the container support (14). Press the fresh water container (2) against the handle (1) until you hear it engage.

The dirty water container (8) is already inserted in the main unit.

Use

Preparing the Carpet

1. Vacuum the carpet or upholstered furniture which is to be cleaned thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner. If possible, use a brush attachment to do this.

2. If possible, remove all furniture from the carpet. In the case of large items of furniture which cannot be moved to one side, place plastic film below or around the feet and only remove it once the carpet has completely dried after it has been cleaned. The feet could be damaged by the moisture from the carpet.

3. Check the colourfastness of the carpet or upholstered furniture. Soak a piece of white fabric with the cleaning solution supplied (see the “Preparing the Device / Filling the Fresh Water Container” section) and rub it carefully on an inconspicuous spot on the carpet. If the white fabric does not become discoloured, the carpet or upholstered furniture can be cleaned with the device. In the case of carpets or upholstered furniture with several colours, test the fastness of each colour.

Preparing the Device / Filling the Fresh Water Container

PLEASE NOTE!

• Only ever pour the cleaning agent supplied with the device or standard carpet cleaning products for carpet cleaners into the fresh water container.
• Do not use any cleaning products that produce a lot of foam as excessive foaming impedes the functioning of the device.

ROLUTION OPEN

1. Press the release lever of the fresh water container (15) upwards. The fresh water container (2) is released from the locking mechanism.
2. Remove the fresh water container (2) from the device.

1. Flip open the seal cap of the fresh water container (9) and pour in carpet cleaning agent. Note the dosing instructions for the cleaning agent when you do this.

2. Fill the fresh water container (2) up to the Max mark with warm water (max. 40^ C). Close the seal cap again.

3. Insert the fresh water container (2) into the container support (14) (see the "Before Initial Use" chapter).

Cleaning

PLEASE NOTE!

• Switch off the device before a water container is removed.
  ■ Make sure that the device does not tip over. The water from the water containers could spill out. To park the device, move the handle to the vertical position in which it engages.
• Do not wet the carpet or the upholstered furniture excessively.
  If the device switches off during use, the built-in overheating protection has been activated. In this case, let the device cool down for approx. 60 minutes and then switch it on again using the On / Off switch.

Cleaning the Carpet

1. Decide where cleaning should start and where it should stop so that you do not step on the carpet which has already been cleaned. We recommend that right-handed people should start at the right-hand edge of the carpet, and left-handed people should start at the left-hand edge of the carpet. Cleaning solution may still escape from the device even after it has been switched off. Therefore have a towel or cloth ready on which the device can be placed down after use.
2. Fully unwind the mains cable from the hook for winding up the cable (10, 11), insert it into the cable holder (16) and connect it to an easily accessible plug socket whose main voltage matches the technical data of the device.
3. Step on the pedal for tipping the handle (13) and tilt the handle (3) towards you.
4. Step on the On / Off switch (12) to switch on the device.
5. Roll the device to a corner of the carpet.
6. Slide the device forwards along the edge of the carpet and hold down the button for discharging the cleaning solution (17). This applies the solution to the carpet and brushes it in. Walk to the side of the device as you do this. Do not tread on the wet carpet! Once you have reached the other end of the carpet, let go of the button.
7. Pull the device backwards along the same strip. The dirty water will be sucked up.
8. Start the next strip slightly overlapping the strip of carpet that has just been cleaned. Work up to the other edge of the carpet with even movements forwards and backwards. If you find more stubborn patches of dirt, go over a strip several times if necessary.
9. When the dirty water container (8) is filled to the Max marking, it must be emptied (see the "After Use" chapter, "Cleaning the Water Containers" section).
10. When the dirty water container (8) is to be emptied, the fresh water container (2) is to be topped up or the cleaning is to be finished, place the device on the towel or cloth provided. Switch off the device by stepping on the On / Off switch (12), and move the handle (1) to a vertical position.
11. Remove the mains plug from the plug socket.

Cleaning Upholstered Furniture

1. Use the upholstery nozzle for cleaning upholstered furniture. To do this, first flip up the closure cap of the hose connection (7), place the end of the hose onto the connection and press this down firmly. You must feel it engage.

2. Step on the On / Off switch (12) to switch on the device.

3. Continue in the same way as with carpet cleaning (see the "Use" chapter, "Cleaning the Carpet" section).

After Use

• Empty both water containers after each use.
- Allow the freshly cleaned surfaces to dry completely.
- If possible, do not tread on the carpet while it is still damp. If it has to be trodden on, put down white or colourfast towels and tread on them.
• If cleaning solution has got onto wooden floors or furniture, wipe it away.
- Vacuum the dry carpet or upholstered furniture with a vacuum cleaner. If possible, use a brush attachment to do this.
