Range of Usage

1. The Carpet washer is to be used on carpets, such as level loop, etc.
2. Some Loop Berber carpets, Natural Fiber (including silk and wool), and Soft Fiber carpets can fuzz with wear. Some

vacuums & carpet cleaners can worsen this carpet wear. If cleaning on Berber, Natural Fiber, or Soft Fiber carpeting, first test on a small hidden area of carpet by running the carpet washer over it. If no fuzzing or overwetting occurs, continue cleaning. Avoid overwetting Berber carpets. If you have any questions or concerns, consult with your carpet manufacturer on deep cleaning recommendations.

1. Important: Keep the foot of the deep cleaner perpendicular to the rug's edge with each cleaning pass to prevent damage.

2. Important! Please check manufacturer's tag before cleaning area rugs for any specialized cleaning instructions. It's not advisable to perform deep cleaning on delicate, silk, wool, antique or area rugs without a manufacturer's tag.

3. When cleaning area rugs, place the rug on a sealed surface to test for colorfastness in an inconspicuous area. Your cleaner should not be used on unsealed surfaces.

4. Avoid using it on rugs or carpets that require dry cleaning.

5. For upholstery, check cleaning code - Use your Tineco 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.

6. 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 for ten minutes and check for color removal. If surface has more than one color, check all colors.

7. Keep your appliance away from heat sources, such as fireplace or heater, to avoid casing deformation.

8. Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, ultrafine particles, sharp objects, hazardous material, chemicals or anything that is burning or smoking, as described above.

About Cleaning Fluid/Solution

1. A large amount of cleaning solution entering into the motor may cause damage to the appliance. Don't shake the machine violently.
2. Add solution as instructed in the Operation section. We recommend using the provided cleaning solution.
3. Keep out of reach of children. If any solution gets into the eyes, immediately flush them with clean water. If any solution is swallowed by accident, seek medical care immediately.
4. Dirty water and solution disposal should comply with local environmental regulations.

About the Appliance

1. Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance except as indicated in the instructions for operating and cleaning.
2. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
3. Ensure that the Power Switch is in the OFF-position and unplug before picking up or carrying the appliance. Do not lay flat or lean the appliance so as to prevent dirty water from entering into the motor.
4. Always install the Dirty Water Tank and Clean Water Tank properly before use.
5. Do not allow the appliance to get wet to avoid risk of fire or injury caused by a short circuit.
