Carry Handle
Grasp the handle on the back of the unit to move unit from
room to room (Fig.4/12).
NOTE: Do not transport the carpet washer with either the
clean or dirty water tanks full.
NOTE: If the hose attachment door is not replaced, there
will be no suction through the nozzle and the unit will not
operate properly.
Emptying the dirty water tank
NOTE: The float in your Rapide is the blue/orange piece in
the dirty water tank lid, which will shut off the suction
when the dirty water tank is full. For best results, use a
smooth steady motion, keeping the nozzle flat against the
carpet. Tipping the cleaner and breaking the seal of the
nozzle against the carpet will cause the float to rise
cutting off suction. Once the float is activated, empty the
dirty water tank. If the tank does not appear full, turn off
the power switch and wait for the float to settle. For best
results use only Vax carpet cleaning solution.
You will hear a distinct change in the noise coming from
your carpet washer when the tank is full and needs
emptying.
IMPORTANT: Unplug your cleaner before emptying
the dirty water tank
Grasp the top of the dirty water tank handle and press the
release latch (Fig.4/13).
Pull the dirty water tank up out of the base, taking care to
ensure that no dirty water leaks from the front (Fig.4/14).
Remove dirty water tank lid (Fig.4/15).
To empty the water tank grasp the handle with one hand
and the nozzle with the other and empty into the
sink (Fig.4/16).
