How to begin

Using the Automatic Smart System™

Your new Healthy Home Spot Clean features an Automatic Smart System that takes the guesswork out of spot and stain removal. With the touch of a button, you can select the cleaning cycle to use your preferred method of cleaning.

1. Surface Stain Cycle This cycle has been designed for stains that are on the surface of your carpeting. This cycle will run for approximately 3 minutes.

2. Set-In Stain Cycle Use on stains that have had a period of time to set-in.

These are typically the most difficult stain types to remove. This cycle runs for approximately 6 minutes.

3. Manual/Hose By selecting this option you can clean spots and stains manually on surfaces such as upholstery, stairs, car interiors, or any other hard to reach area.

4. Pause/Resume If you press the pause/resume button once, it will pause the cleaning cycle. Press again to resume your current cleaning cycle.

5. Stop By pressing the red stop button, you will stop the cleaning cycle completely. To begin cleaning again, you will need to start over and select a cleaning cycle.

6. Status Indicator Lights These lights give you a visual update on the cleaning cycle. During a cleaning cycle you will hear changes in the sound of the machine that correspond with a given step. When your cleaning cycle is complete, the Finish light will illuminate and you will hear a “beep” every five seconds until you press the stop button.

Tip:

Some spots and spills require that you pick up the chunky debris with a rag or towel before you begin cleaning in the automatic or manual cycles.

perations

To begin cleaning

1. Place the filled clean water/solution tank onto the unit.

2. Plug your Healthy Home Spot Clean in.

The power light will illuminate, indicating your Healthy Home Spot Clean is ready to go.

Automated cleaning

1. Place the unit directly over the spot or stain, making sure the stain is in the center of the cleaning area.

2.

Select which cleaning cycle (surface stain or set-in stain) you would like to use. Healthy Home Spot Clean will begin spraying, brushing and suctioning the soiled area, in a pre-programmed cycle.

Both cycles have been tested and proven to deliver superior cleaning results, taking the guesswork and effort out of cleaning for you.

3.

When the cleaning cycle you have selected is complete, the Healthy Home

Spot Clean will beep. The beep will continue until you press the STOP button.

4.

Pick up the unit and check the area that was cleaned.

5.

If you use Oxy GEN2, it will continue to work for the next six to eight hours, cleaning your spots and stains all the way to the backing of the carpet.

Tip:

If the unit accidentally tips or is tilted, the handsfree cleaning brushes will stop.

Tip:

Some difficult stains may require that you run the cleaning cycle a second time.

1.

2. A .

Remove the Tough Stain Brush from the back of the unit.

B .

Attach the Tough Stain Brush onto the grip of the hose.

3. Select the hose button on the control panel to start the Healthy Home Spot

Clean.

NOTE: In manual mode, the Healthy

Home Spot Clean will not turn on until the hose is disconnected from the hose connector. If it is not removed within

30 seconds of pushing the hose button, the unit will shut off.

4. Begin cleaning by holding the tool no more than 15 cm above the soiled surface. Depress the spray trigger for about 5 seconds to apply the cleaning solution to the soiled area. Release the spray trigger. Be careful not to overwet.

2A.

5. Using the brush on the tool, gently scrub the soiled area until it appears to be clean.

6. To suction up the dirt and cleaning solution, position the suction nozzle over the cleaned area, apply downward pressure on the tool, and pull nozzle toward you.

You should see the dirty solution pass through the nozzle. Continue until no more solution can be removed.

NOTE: In manual mode, the Healthy

Home Spot Clean is equipped with a safety feature which will shut the unit off after 30 minutes. Press start to resume cleaning.

7. If the stain is still visible, repeat steps

4-6 as necessary.

8. When the cleaning is complete, lightly drag the suction nozzle across the stain to further aid in drying the cleaned area.

2B.

Tip:

One of the effective stain removing ingredients in Oxy Gen2 is Hydrogen

Peroxide. Certain people may be affected by the formula when it comes into contact with their skin; it may turn the skin white and/or cause tingling.

Washing your hands after use and applying hand lotion will remove any possible white discoloration.

Tip:

Check upholstery stuffing before cleaning. Colored stuffing may bleed through the fabric when it becomes wet.

GEN2 should be added prior to the next use to optimize performance.
