Cleaning upholstery 1 Check fabric cleaning code (Fig. 36). Look on the furniture manufacturer's tag for a 'W' or 'WS' code. These codes indicate that it is alright to use your deep cleaner to clean the upholstery. Do not use the deep cleaner on upholstery marked 'S', 'X' or 'Dry Clean Only'. 2 Vacuum upholstery thoroughly with your vacuum cleaner's attachments. 3 Test detergent for colorfastness on a hidden area of upholstery. Wet a white cloth or paper towel with some detergent. Gently rub onto a hidden area of upholstery. Wait ten minutes. Blot with white cloth or paper towel and check for color transfer. 4 Pretreat spots and stains with HOOVER Spot and Stain Spray (Fig. 37). Spray spot or area with Spot and Stain Spray. Then proceed with the next cleaning steps. For stubborn spots or stains, refer to the stain guide included with your cleaner. 5 Fill solution tank with hot tap water and proper amount of HOOVER detergent (see page 5)(Fig. 38). Use only HOOVER brand detergents in your deep cleaner. Other brands may damage the deep cleaner. 6 Attach hose and tool as described in Figs. 13-19 (Fig. 39). 7 Place handle in full upright position. Turn cleaner ON. 8 Squeeze and hold trigger (A) to release cleaning solution. Gently press tool into fabric and slowly pull the tool over the fabric (Fig. 40). 9 Let go of trigger and pull tool over same area to pick up dirty solution without putting down more solution. Continue using dry strokes until you see only a little solution coming up through the tool. 10 Do not make the upholstery too wet! Use no more than two strokes while releasing solution. Always follow with dry strokes - the more the better. A 11 Listen carefully! When the motor sound changes (rises in pitch), the recovery tank need to be emptied. When water has reached the full line in the recovery tank, the cleaner will NOT pick up dirty solution. 12 Allow upholstery to dry. Avoid using upholstery until it is dry. Increased air circulation (open doors, turn on fans, etc.) will help upholstery dry thoroughly to prevent the growth of mold or mildew.
