Unpleasant odor from exhaust air during or after cleaning

Safety: Unplug the unit and wear gloves when handling dirty components.

• Clean dirty tank: Empty and wash the dirty water tank with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Wash or replace filters: Clean washable filters as per manual and replace any non-washable filters that smell or appear discolored.
• Flush hoses: Run warm water with a small amount of approved cleaner through the suction and solution hoses, then rinse with clear water.
• Dry thoroughly: Leave tanks and filters out of the machine to air dry completely before reassembly.

Regular cleaning after each use will prevent odors from returning.
