Water and cleaning
solution is not dispensing
onto carpet or upholstery.
Not removing certain
stains. Heavy traffic area
spots.
Carpet is excessively wet
after cleaning.
Note: Under normal
conditions, a carpet may
take up to four hours or
longer to completely dry.
Drying time depends on a
combination of various
factors including: carpet
type, carpet pile
thickness, temperature,
humidity, air circulation
and the number of wet
passes.
Excessive foaming at
spray tips.
Dark streaks on carpet
after cleaning.
Steemer brush roll will not
turn.
Cleaner will not run or
suddenly stops.
• Check that the upper supply tank is partially
filled with lukewarm water. Caution: Do not
overfill.
• Check that a cleaner cartridge is installed
and that the white lever is locked in the
downward position. Due to pressurization, the
cleaner will not properly operate without a
cleaner cartridge in place. If the cleaner
cartridge is empty, replace it with a full
cartridge.
• Check that the spray tips are not clogged.
Use a towel or damp cloth to clean.
• For above-the-floor cleaning, check that the
hand-held nozzle and hose assembly is
properly connected to the cleaner neck. Also
insure that the button lock has been
engaged.
• For best results, use a stain pretreatment,
such as Steemer Full Release
®
Professional
Spot & Stain PreCleaner. These solutions
loosen and break down most common
household grease, oil, and food stains.
• Make several slow passes over the stain
from different angles.
• Make at least one additional pass over the
wet carpet without pressing the cleaner
button.
• Check that the handle trigger lock is not
engaged.
• With each pass, slowly pull the unit toward
you to extract any remaining liquid in the
carpet. To speed drying, gently push the
nozzle deep into the carpet pile.
• Check for airpath obstructions in the
stair/upholstery hose, cleaner neck and in the
nozzle. Check to insure that the inlet screen
is free of debris.
• Check that the upper supply tank has water.
• Operate the machine more slowly; you will
achieve better results with one slow pass
than several fast strokes.
• Overlap each pass to provide maximum
cleaning without streaking.
•In high traffic or heavily soiled carpets, it is
occasionally beneficial to allow the carpet to
dry and repeat the process as needed to
achieve optimal cleaning.
• Check that the nozzle power cord is
completely connected to the main unit.
• If an obstruction stalls the brush roll, the belt
is designed to burn through so as to protect
the motor. Please insure through inspection
that the brush roll is free of obstructions and
is free to turn. Secondly, make sure that the
belt is in good working order. Replace the
belt if needed.
• If the belt and the brush roll become
excessively wet, momentary slippage can
occur. By running the unit on a dry section of
carpet for a minute or less, the belt will
function properly.
• Reinsert the plug, if it has slipped out of the
outlet.
• The A.L.C.I. may have tripped off due to
fluctuations in household current. Press the
reset button and restart the unit.
