DANGER.
C
Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding 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 illustrated in
sketch (A).
This appliance must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical 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
plugged into an appropriate outlet (B)
that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
II
E
C
A
F
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. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded
outlet (B) can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored rigid ear,
lug, or the like (F) extending from the
adapter must be connected to a perma-.
nent ground (G) such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover. Whenever
the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metai screw. NOTE: In
Canada, the use of a temporary adapter
is not permitted by the Canadian
Electrical Code.

and 8. Wet a white absorbent cloth with the
solution. In a small, hidden area, gently rub
the surface with the dampened cloth. Wait ten
minutes and check for color removal or bleed
with white paper towel or cloth. If surface has
more than one color, check all colors.
a. Vacuum thoroughly
- For carpet, use
a vacuum cleaner with an agitator for
best results. Vacuum upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner with cleaning tool
attachments. Use a crevice tool to reach
into tufts and folds. Do not use the
'SteamVac' deep cleaner as a dry vacuum cleaner.
d. When cleaning entire floor, move
furniture out of area to be cleaned
(may not be necessary if only high traffic
areas are to be cleaned). For furniture
too heavy to move, place aluminum foil
or wax paper under legs. This will prevent wood finishes from staining carpet.
Pin up furniture skirts and draperies.
b. For upholstery, check cleaning
code - Use your HOOVER 'SteamVac'
deep cleaner only if the upholstery fabric is marked with a "W" (for "wet" clean)
or "S/W" (for "solvent/dry" or "wet"
clean). Do not clean fabric marked "S"
("solvent/dry"
clean only). If your
upholstery does not have a code, seek
professional assistance.
e. Pretreat spots and heavy traffic
areas with HOOVER@ PreCleaner*Test PreCleaner for colorfastness by first
spraying it on a hidden area; wait ten
minutes and blot with white paper towels
or cloth.
tf no color change is visible, spray
PreCleaner onto spots and traffic areas. Wait
at least ten minutes. Use your 'SteamVac'
deep cleaner to pick up PreCleaner and
spot. Repeat until spot is removed; carefully
scrub with a household scrub brush if necessary.
c.Test for colorfastness - Mix detergent
and water according to the instructions
under "Fill clean solution tank" on pages 7
After
cleaning
a. Allow carpet or upholstery to dry. To
help prevent matting and resoiling the
carpet, keep children and pets away
from surface until it is completely dry. If
it is necessary to walk on damp carpet, place towels or white cloths on the
traffic areas.
If furniture must be replaced before the
carpet is dry, use plastic or aluminum
foil pads under legs of furniture so metal
slides or wood finishes will not stain the
carpet.
b. If desired, the carpet may be rinsed.
Rinsing is not necessary for cleaning,
but it may Improve the surface's appearance after it is dry.
If rinsing is desired, be careful not to
over-wet the carpet or upholstery.
Raise handle of deep cleaner to upright
position and reposition upper clean
solution tank.
Allow time for carpet or upholstery to
dry completely between cleaning and
rinsing. To rinse, follow the same procedure for cleaning only using hot tap
water with no detergent in the upper
clean solution tank.
c. Empty tanks, rinse with clear water
and let air dry. Rinse the solution tank
cap and recovery tank lid and let air dry.
Do not saturate carpet or upholstery with
PreCleaner.
If you do not have access to the
PreCleaner Spray, double the amount
of HOOVER Detergent (use 2 capfuls
or 10 oz. per 1 gallon) in the clean
solution tank.
*Available at additional cost if not included
with your model. No cleaning solution
removes al! stains from all carpets. Stain
removal varies with the type of spill, time
elapsed before removal, carpet material,
and carpet type.
f.To prevent staining, use plastic or aluminum foil to protect wood or metal surfaces from possible water spray.
g. To avoid wetting and possible damage
to wood floors underneath area rugs/carpet, either move area rugs/carpet to a nonwood bare floor surface or place waterproof
material (e.g. plastic) underneath them
before cleaning.
See pages 10-14 for instructions on various
cleaning tasks.

Keep nozzle flat on floor for both forward and reverse strokes.
Read "Before you begin cleaning"
instructions on page 9.
Fill clean solution tank (upper tank) with
HOOVER Carpet/Upholstery Detergent
according to instructions on pages 7
and 8.
It is best to alternate wet and dry
strokes as described above.
Move speed selector to LO for gentle
cleaning or Hi for normal cleaning.
Dry hands and plug cord into a properly
grounded outlet.
Do not clean over floor electrical outlets.
To avoid walking on damp carpet, start
at the end of the room farthest from the
door or path to sink where tanks will be
emptied and filled.
Step on handle release pedal and lower
handle to operating position; turn deep
cleaner ON.
Your HOOVER SteamVac deep cleaner
may also be used to pick up small liquid spills (1 gallon or less, never to
exceed 1/4 inch in depth) on carpet,
upholstery, or bare floors.
For best results, pick up spills immediately by placing the stair/upholstery
nozzle just above the spill and suction
up any residue on top of the carpet. If
the spill remains, place either the stair/
upholstery nozzle or floor nozzle with
brushes turned OFF in front of the spill,
pull the nozzle very slowly over the spill
initially with suction only. Repeat with spray
and suction.
When picking up spills on bare floors,
For heavily soiled areas, repeat. To
avoid saturating carpet, do not use
more than 4 wet strokes over one
area. Always end with dry strokes.

slowly push deep cleaner forward over

back,toward you without squeezing trigger (dry stroke).
For best cleaning results and to aid in
faster drying of carpet, end with more
dry strokes. (Continue using dry strokes
until little water is visible passing
through the recovery tank _id.)
Empty recovery tank when the motor
sound becomes higher pitched and
there is a loss in suction (see
"Automatic shut-off", page 7)
When finished cleaning, follow "After
cleaning" instructions on pages 9-10.
Overlap strokes by I inch to help pre-
use only the floor nozzle with the bare
floor attachment in place and speed

If a spot is left, the stair/upholstery nozzle is
generally more effective for removing it.
Although no cleaning solution can completely remove all spots, they can be treated by following the instructions provided by
the manufacturer of the carpet, upholstery,
or bare floor surface being cleaned.
Do not use the SteamVac deep cleaner
to pick up flammable or combustible liquids or chemicals.
When finished, follow "After cleaning"
instructions on pages 9-10.
