Cleaning methods

Normal soiling
 Spray and suction off detergent solution
in one work cycle.
Note
A repeated suctioning without spraying will
shorten the drying time.
Strong soiling or stains
 Apply detergent solution with suction
turbine turned off and soak for 10 to 15
minutes.
 Clean the surface just like with normal
soiling.
 In order to further improve the cleaning
result, the surface can be recleaned us-
ing clear, warm water.
