Using a carpet cleaner is relatively simple, but there are a few steps to sort before you get going. For the deepest clean, you’ll first want to give your carpets a once over with a vacuum cleaner, making sure to carefully move any furniture out the way too – that’ll save you stopping and starting halfway through. Then you’ll need to fill up the water tank to the appropriate level, as well as adding the recommended cleaning detergent to the solution tank. From here, we thoroughly recommend you read the product manual for your specific make and model, as functions can vary from brand to brand.
