Earlex Pure Steam Cleaner Vacuum Cleaner User Manual


 
ACCESSORIES
FLOOR CLEANER
IMPORTANT: Some carpets have stain resistant treatments, which have
varying active lives before breakdown. Accordingly it is best to try a small
area of carpet that is normally unseen, then allow 24 hours to check whether
the steam has any unusual effects on the carpet material. e.g. white streaks.
DO NOT CONTINUE USE. - Check with your carpet supplier for further advice.
Used correctly the Floor Cleaner will refresh your carpets by removing surface
grime, pet hairs etc. leaving the carpet looking brighter. It is not a dirt extraction
system, so cannot necessarily remove deep stains or grease. Attempting to make
it do this by longer application of steam may result in watermarking or staining.
Connect the Universal Handle and long handle to the Floor Cleaner head. Fit the
cleaning towel to the head by placing the towel over the floor cleaner head and
pulling drawstring tight. The drawstring can be secured at the back of the floor
cleaner (Fig.4). Before using the Floor Cleaner, use a vacuum cleaner to pick up
the larger dirt and grit particles. Having prepared the area, start the unit and wait
for steam to appear at the accessory head.
Now begin to move the Floor Cleaning head over the carpet at a steady pace. If
there are stains on the carpet pause for a few seconds to allow the steam time to
penetrate.
Do not soak the carpet. Glide the Floor Cleaner over the surface. It is generally
better and easier, to pull rather than push head across heavy pile carpets. Do not
try to scrub the surface.
The towel will collect the dirt. Both sides of the towel can be used. Used towels can
be washed out and reused. Wash at 90˚C for maximum longevity. Do not use
bleach or fabric conditioner. Use only one third of normal soap powder to avoid
clogging of the fibres.
For extra towels, please use the spares order form at the back of this booklet.
Alternatively call our customer service on 01483 454666.
The Floor Cleaner can also be used on other types of flooring such as ceramic,
cork, marble, linoleum, stone, parquet etc. If you have an area to clean which has
joints (such as tiles) it may be useful to use the brush attachment of the jet nozzle
in order to clean completely. Be especially careful with parquet - older oak floors are very tough but on
some newer floors steam may cause the blocks to swell.
One useful point to note is that steam will cause animal hairs to roll into easily removable balls.
This attachment can be used on car interiors, motor homes, painted doors, walls, louvres etc.
JET NOZZLE
Connect the universal handle to the jet nozzle head. Select
the scraper head or brush to fit the nozzle end if required
and push on to the nozzle.
PIug the boiler unit in and wait for steam to appear at the
accessory head. Beware of hot water discharge prior to
steam emission. This accessory can be used for cleaning
all round the house, stoves, cupboards, work surfaces,
toilets, sinks, lawnmowers etc. It both cleans and disinfects
at the same time. It can also be used to defrost your freezer
in minutes with no inconvenience. Check with fridge/freezer manufacturer for advice before use.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Unscrew the filler cap and fill the boiler slowly until the float lifts up,
approximately 4.5 ltrs. The maximum level will give you approx. 115 minutes
of steam. DO NOT OVERFlLL. Connect the end of the steam hose to the
threaded outlet on the boiler neck. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Connect the
power cord to the boiler and then connect to the power supply. Do not tilt in
use. Sometime prior to the steam being produced a small amount of bubbling
will occur at the tool. Be careful of any escaping hot water prior to steam
emission. If the unit requires refilling, unplug cord, wait for 2 minutes to cool
down, then refill as per the above instructions. BEWARE OF STEAM. When
you have finished, allow any remaining water to cool down before emptying the
boiler. Never store cold water in the unit and always disconnect the hose
before storage. Storage should be in an upright position only.
