GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug (A). The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet (B) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is not available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (B) can be installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground (G) such as a properly grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code

       

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE:

• Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with this product, as they may cause damage.
• Store appropriately indoors in a dry place. Do not expose machine to freezing temperatures.
• Do not use sharp objects to clean out hose as they can cause damage.
• To assist in reducing drying time, be certain the area is well ventilated when using detergents and other cleaners with this machine.
• To help prevent matting and resoiling, avoid contact with carpets until they are dry. Keep children and pets away from carpets until they are completely dry.
• Do not store extractor with solution in tanks.
• With brushes and brush roll on, do not allow cleaner to sit in one location for an extended period of time, as damage to the floor can result.
• Do not use this extractor on hard floors. Using this machine on hard floors may scratch or damage your floor.
• Water will drip from the brushes and underside of the product after use and may puddle. To avoid damage to wood and laminate flooring and to avoid potential slip hazard, after use (a) do not leave the product on wood and laminate surfaces and remove to a hard surface and (b) place unit on absorbent material (such as a towel) to soak up drips.

Before you begin

Vacuum carpet and upholstery thoroughly with a Hoover vacuum before use.

Don’t use the carpet cleaner as a traditional vacuum cleaner.

Use your Hoover carpet cleaner only if upholstery fabric is marked with a “W” (for “wet” clean) or “S/W” (for “solvent/dry” or “wet” clean). Don’t clean fabric marked “S” (“solvent/ dry” clean only).

Test for colorfastness in a small, hidden area. Gently rub surface with a dampened white cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for color removal or bleed with a white paper towel.

Move furniture out of area to be cleaned. Place aluminum foil or wax paper under legs of furniture too heavy to move to prevent wood finishes from staining carpet. Pin up furniture skirts and draperies.

Pretreat spots and heavy traffic areas with a Hoover® Cleaning Solution*. See the “Cleaning Solutions” section.

• Available at additional cost if not included with your model.

Pretreating

For best results, pretreat stains with a Hoover spot treatment (see Hoover Cleaning Solution Guide) to help loosen and remove even the most stubborn stains.

NOTE: To prevent staining, use plastic or aluminum foil to protect wood or metal surfaces from possible water spray.

NOTE: To avoid damage to wood floors underneath area rugs or carpet, place waterproof material (ex: plastic) underneath them before cleaning.

Getting started with your Power Scrub Elite™

3. Twist off the solution cap on the top of the clean water tank and pour cleaning solution into tank. Replace cap.
   
4. Angle the Solution/Clean Water tank back on the base and click it into place.

2. Release Dirty Water Tank Latch.
   
3. Grab the Dirty Water Tank handle and remove from carpet cleaner base.
   
4. Place on a flat surface and unlatch Dirty Water Tank lid located below the Quick Spout Pour cap.

IMPORTANT

Regarding Dirty Water Tank Lid: For full suction it is important that the Dirty Water Tank Lid is securely in place. If misplaced, poor to no suction will result.

IMPORTANT

For full suction, it is important that the Dirty Water Tank is properly secured before cleaning.

Continue using dry strokes until little water is visible passing through the nozzle. For best results, Hoover recommends rinsing carpet with water only. This removes residual carpet cleaning solution. Fill Solution Tank with water and repeat. For heavily soiled areas, repeat. Avoid saturating carpet.

NOTE: Empty Dirty Water Tank when the motor sound becomes higher pitched and there is a loss in suction (see “Automatic shut-off”). You will also see the float rise and shut off suction at the same time.

NOTE: It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes as described above. See cleaning modes section to choose best cleaning mode for desired results.

CAUTION

Do not clean over-floor electrical outlets. Water will drip from the brushes and underside of the product after use and may puddle. To avoid damage to wood and laminate flooring and to avoid potential slip hazard, after use (a) do not leave the product on wood and laminate surfaces and move to a hard surface and (b) place unit on an absorbent material (such as a towel) to soak up drips.

Using your Power Scrub Elite™

1. Choose cleaning mode by turning the dial on the base to “Quick Clean” or “Deep Clean” mode.
   
   NOTE: See cleaning mode descriptions.
