A:AnswerThat's not a question, the machine contains water and cleaning fluid,you will need to go over the area first with the soap cycle and secondly with dry cycle, go slow so it picks up water. Then store it dry, with no water, dirty or clean. You may need a dry cloth to wipe up any trail you leave to empty.
