Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup requires filling the clean water tank with hot tap water and the manufacturer-recommended Vax solution. Ensure the dirty water tank is correctly seated before starting to maintain suction. For maintenance, remove the brush bar cover after every use to clear away trapped carpet fibers and rinse the dirty water tank thoroughly to prevent odors. Because the unit features antimicrobial treatments, avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach, which may degrade these coatings. Store the machine in a dry location, leaving the tanks slightly ajar to allow the internal seals to dry out completely between sessions.
