The transparent wash-dry attachment vacuums up the dirty water, which is then collected in the wet tank, leaving the surface clean and almost dry. Extraction cleaning deep-cleans rugs, carpets, fabrics and floors, restoring their colour, improving their appearance and making them last longer. NOTICE: noise level. After setting up your machine, you may notice an increase of the noise level for a few seconds. This is not due to a defect in the machine but to the water starting to circulate for the first time. Should the noise continue for more than 15 seconds, check that the suction inlet tube is correctly connected to the motor unit. When the water in the tank runs out, the noise level will increase once again. At this point, switch off the machine and proceed to refill the tank as described in the instruction booklet. Important: the pump noise level acts as an acoustic warning that the water in the tank has run out. Window cleaning attachment (where supplied) For instructions on how to use this attachment, refer to the instructions supplied with it (fig. 13). 13 Plug in the appliance. Operate the pump, pressing the pump button (fig. 14). CAUTION: never press the pump button when the shampoo solution tank is empty or when the cleaner is being used as a wet or dry vacuum cleaner.

When this happens, wait 30 minutes before starting up the appliance again. 14 General tips 1 To remove particularly stubborn dirt, proceed as follows: - Turn the selector (9) to extraction cleaning . - Depress the pump button only and use the spray trigger (16) to spray shampoo solution on the surface to be treated. - Wait one or two minutes to allow the shampoo to soak in completely. 15 11/19 Penta GB 11-01-2001 08:20 Pagina 16 - Press the on/off switch which activates the extraction function and pass over the surface operating only the extraction function (do not use the dispenser lever) (16).
