Manual/hose cleaning
1. Remove the hose from the unit by
depressing the release button.
2. a. Remove the Tough Stain Brush from the
back of the unit.
b. Attach the Tough Stain Brush onto the
grip of the flex hose.
3. Select the manual/hose button on the
control panel to start the SpotBot.
NOTE: In manual mode, the SpotBot will not
turn on until the grip is removed from the
unit. If it is not removed within 30 seconds of
pushing the start button, the unit will shut off.
4. If your unit has a built in heater (not standard on
all models) press the heater button to turn on the
heat feature. Begin cleaning by holding the tool
no more than six inches above the soiled surface.
Depress the spray trigger for about 5 seconds
to apply the cleaning solution to the soiled area.
Release the trigger. Be careful not to over wet.
5. Using the brush on the tool, gently scrub the
soiled area for about 30 seconds or until the
soiled area 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.
Normally, this step will require no more than
one minute of back and forth passes.
NOTE: In manual mode, the SpotBot 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 for about
two minutes to further aid in drying the
cleaned area.
9. Press the Manual/Hose button to turn off
the SpotBot.
10. Unplug the machine, wrap the cord on the
cord wraps and wrap the hose around the
machine so that the wand can be placed in
the holder for convenient storage.
