Troubleshooting

Carpet still looks dirty after cleaning.

Ensure you've pre-treated heavily soiled areas. Also, check the machine's suction and make sure the tank isn't full.

Machine isn't dispensing the solution.

Check the solution tank and hoses for clogs or blockages. Ensure the machine's settings are correct for solution dispensing.

Streaks appear on the carpet after cleaning.

Avoid over-wetting the carpet. Ensure you're using the correct amount of solution, and make multiple passes to extract the water.

The machine leaves the carpet too wet.

Ensure the machine's suction is working correctly and make slow, overlapping passes to extract as much water as possible. Open windows to improve air circulation and speed drying.
