SmartMix
Replace SmartMix concentrate bottle.
Note: If bottle leaks, check for proper
positioning of o-ring and straw.
Choose the SmartMix setting that fits the cleaning job.
Water Rinse / Carpet Protector - use for gentle
cleaning or for the final rinse after cleaning. This
setting must also be used when applying the carpet
protectant through the applicator, to prevent the
pump from temporarily losing its prime.
Normal- automatically provides the best mix of
water and concentrate for most cleaning jobs.
High Traffic- automatically mixes the right amount
of water and concentrate to dissolve tough grime
and heavy soil. Note: Residual cleaning materials left
in carpet from other products may cause excessive
foaming when picked up. If foam is overflowing
tank, move SmartMix dial to “Water Only” position
until the condition stops.
Note: Both the SmartMix Bottle and the clean
water tank must have liquid in them in
order for the machine to spray. If one tank
is empty, the machine will temporarily
lose its prime and not apply either
cleaning solution or water only.
Important:
If you are using the WATER RINSE /
CARPET PROTECTANT setting, fill the Smart
Mix bottle with water also!
The powered brush roll at the floor nozzle is designed to
enhance cleaning performance. The bristle pattern lifts out the
deep down dirt while gently grooming carpet fibers. The floating
suspension self-adjusts to all carpet heights and protects
your carpet if you leave the power switch ON. When the
machine handle is in the fully upright position, Carpet Saver
automatically raises the brush off the carpet.
Our Tank-in-Tank system is designed with a bladder inside for
clean water. As you clean, the bladder will empty. Dirty water
collects in the tank outside the bladder.
Step on handle release to lay the machine handle
down out of the way.
