When finished cleaning, follow “After
cleaning” instructions on pages 10
and 11 and “After using tool” instruc-
tions on pages 13 and 14. Make no more than 2 passes with
the solution over any one area to
prevent over-wetting and damage
to fabric.
If additional cleaning is necessary,
wait until the upholstery is complete-
ly dry before using the tool again.

motor sound becomes higher
