Earlex Pure Steam Cleaner Vacuum Cleaner User Manual


 
WINDOW/TILE CLEANER
IMPORTANT - You should only proceed at your own risk.
When cleaning exterior glass be extra careful not to pick-up any grit on the rubber blade - which
could cause scratches.
Antique glass and stained glass may be brittle and can crack under extreme temperatures.
Do not use on glass at temperatures below 0˚C.
Connect the universal handle and long handle to the window/tile cleaner head. Select the length of
handle required (if any).
Plug the boiler unit in and wait for steam to appear at the accessory head. Beware of hot water
discharge prior to steam emission. Steam will be emitted from the apertures on the accessory head.
Move down the windows and clean with the rubber blade as the accessory travels down the surface.
Always pull the accessory towards the handle so that the blade is acting after the steam. Do not push
the accessory away from the handle. After you have completely finished cleaning, switch off the unit
and clean the glass or tiles from top to bottom with the rubber blade only.
Steam will completely remove dust, film or greasy marks from windows, mirrors and patio doors. The
window/tile cleaner will remove soap and grease residues but cannot remove deposits of scale. To
remove black marks from grouting or corners use the jet nozzle with brush or scraper attachment.
UPHOLSTERY CLEANER
IMPORTANT: Some upholstery, fabrics or soft furnishings have stain resistant treatments,
which have varying active lives before breakdown. Accordingly it is best to try a small area that
is normally unseen, then allow 24 hours to check whether the steam has any unusual effects
on the fabric material. If so, DO NOT CONTINUE. Check with your fabric or furnishing supplier
for further advice.
Do not allow the material to become soaked. You only require a small amount of steam to clean,
and soaking can leave water marks or cause bleed through from linings etc.
Connect the universal handle to the upholstery cleaner head. Fit the cleaning toweI to the head in the
same way as the Floor Cleaner (see page 4). Spare towels can be purchased from Earlex. 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.
Curtains & Clothing
The upholstery cleaner head can also be used for removing the creases from hanging curtains and to
clean and remove creases from overcoats, suits, jackets, trousers, etc.
DESCALING
To maintain peak performance of the unit, particularly in areas of hard water, it may be necessary to
descale the element in the unit. Proprietary kettle descaling products can be used in your Steam
Cleaning Kit - always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
