Using Your Vapor Steam Cleaner
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors
Use the large floor brush with a terry cloth attached. Move the brush across the floor as if you are
mopping. When the towel is soiled, you can turn the towel over or replace it with a clean towel. If you
are working on a very dirty area, you can move the brush over the area slowly, several times. If it is a
wood floor, move fast to avoid heat or moisture buildup in the wood. By cleaning with the towel over
the brush, you will not affect the shine on the floor.
To Strip Wax: Use medium or high pressure, large floor brush for open areas; small nylon detail brush
for corners or tight areas - no towel, slow strokes. Work a small area at a time - remove the emulsified
wax from the floor with a cloth or paper towel. When all of the wax has been stripped, immediately
clean the floor and brushes with water before wax residue has a chance to harden on them. Go back
over the stripped area with the large floor brush with a towel to remove any remaining residue before
waxing.
To Clean Waxed Floors: Use low pressure setting, wrap clean towel around the large floor brush,
brush quickly. This will cause the dirt to be removed.
Vinyl Floors: Do not allow heat to buildup in any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it enough to affect its
texture. Work fast on vinyl.
Tile Floors: Use a detail attachment with the small nylon detail brush attached to an extension. Have
the large floor brush with cloth attached ready as well. Clean the grout of the tile with the small nylon
detail brush. Remove the detail attachment and attach the large floor brush/ move the brush across
the floor to clean the tile and remove excess moisture and residue. For areas of tile that are very dirty,
remove the towel and agitate with the brush. Do not let the area dry before you wipe it up.
Carpets
Vacuum the entire carpet area first. Use the large floor brush with a cloth attached (you might need two
terry cloth towels to eliminate drag). Move slowly over the area allowing the vapor to penetrate the
carpet. The cloth will absorb the excess moisture and residue. For spot cleaning, use the detail
attachment without a brush. Remember - the towel is your ‘extractor” in this process. Do not vacuum
again while the cleaned area is still damp. Wait until carpet dries completely. Do not linger too long in
one place - normal back and forth motion used in cleaning a carpet prevents heat buildup in the fibers.
Warning: • Do not vacuum the carpet while it is still damp. The dirt from your vacuum cleaner
may be re-deposited into the carpet.
• Some carpets do not have secure colorfast dyes. Do not start cleaning your carpet
before testing first in a small inconspicuous area.
Caution: Always determine the color-fastness of any fabric - especially with reds or blues - by
taking a clean, moist, warm towel and gently rubbing a small area as far down on the
back or other out of the way place on the furniture as possible. If color comes off on the
towel, you may need to have the piece dry cleaned.
