2.15 Lift front base of cleaner off
carpeting with one hand.
2.16 Grasp handle and hook
front of dirty water tank into base
of cleaner, making sure front of
dirty water tank is resting on the
base (Diagram 2.16). The Dirty
Water Tank has 3 tabs on the
underside which MUST latch
into the underside of the base of
the cleaner. It is very important
to lift the base of the cleaner off
of the carpeting and hook the
nozzle to the base so that the
nozzle is flush with the base of
the cleaner (Diagram 2.17).
Failure to install the Dirty Water
Tank correctly (Diagram 2.18),
will result in poor dirty water
pickup. The Dirty Water Tank will
need to be emptied once or
twice per fill up of the Solution
Tank.
2.19 While making sure the front
of the dirty water tank is resting
on the base, place the rear of
the tank into the base of the
cleaner. Push handle down until
it latches.

• IMPORTANT •
• You will hear a noticeable change in the pitch of the cleaner. This indicates a need to empty the dirty
water tank.
• The float in your Carpet Cleaner is the blue piece in the dirty water tank lid, and will shut off the
suction when the dirty water tank is full.
• For best results, use smooth, steady motion keeping the nozzle flat against the carpeting. Tipping
the cleaner and breaking the seal of the nozzle and carpeting will cause the float to rise and shut off
the suction.
• 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 Carpet & Upholstery Detergents . Other Solutions may
generate excessive foam which will cause the float to rise prematurely and shut off the suction.
• Use two capfuls (4 ounces) of Hoover
®
Brand Carpet & Upholstery Detergents per fill-up of the
clean water tank. A higher concentration of detergent may cause excessive foaming.
