Assembly of Casters
The casters for your new steam cleaner
are packed and shipped unassembled.
To assemble the casters to the base of
the steam cleaner, simply insert the
caster stems onto one of the four (4)
posts on the base and push downward
with the palm of your hand. Repeat for
the next three (3) casters.
Step 2: Press the steam switch to the “Off”
position, turn the unit off, unplug the
unit from the electrical outlet and let
the unit cool for 15 minutes.
Step 3: Plug the power cord into an
electrical outlet, assure that the
On/Off switch is in the Off
position and press
the steam switch
on the hand grip to
the “ON” position to
vent any residual steam
that is in the boiler. (Fig 1)
Step 4: Remove the power cord from the
electrical outlet and turn the steam
switch on the hand grip to the “OFF”
position. (Fig. 1)
Step 5: Place the unit on a flat, stable
surface. Slowly turn the safety
filler cap counter clockwise until it is
removed.
Step 6: Insert the funnel
into the tank
opening and
add 84 US Fl Oz
(2.4L) of water.
(Fig. 2) Place
the funnel in
the tank opening
as illustrated in
Fig. 2. The
funnel has been
specially
designed to show
when the water
tank is full. When
water starts to come out of the vent
hole of the funnel, the tank is full.
Remove the funnel slowly and let
the remaining water in it go inside
the water tank. Do Not Overfill.
Step 7: Replace the Safety Filler Cap.
Efficient Work
For vertical surfaces, wipe with a
towel from the top down, in this
way the dirty water will not soil
surfaces already cleaned.
Avoid changing brushes back and
forth while cleaning.
Start with the smallest brush to
clean tight spots and corners first.
Use a towel to wipe dirt as soon as
possible, otherwise it will dry and
re-adhere to the surface.
If you consistently use demineralized or
distilled water, cleaning the tank is
unnecessary.
Rinsing Out the Steam Cleaner
Normally, a periodic rinse of your steam
cleaner will free it from deposits. This is
recommended every 10-15 tankfulls, to
free up any scale deposits from the tank.
Fill the boiler with 20 oz. of water and
shake the cleaner vigorously. Tilt the
cleaner upside down to empty the boiler of
water and any scale deposits.
Descaling Your Steam Cleaner
If the tap water in you area contains a high
level of calcium deposits and you have
been using tap water to do your steam
cleaning, you should descale your unit
after 10-15 tankfulls.
Step 1: Unplug the steam cleaner from
the power source before you
descale the boiler. Allow to cool.
Step 2: Fill the boiler with 1 part
vinegar and 5 parts water and
leave overnight or for a period
of approximately 8 hours. Do
not screw the safety/filler cap
onto the steam cleaner while
you are descaling the boiler.
Do not use the steam cleaner
while descaling solution is
inside the boiler.
Step 3: After the period of soaking, turn
the steam cleaner upside down
to empty solution from the
boiler. Due to the fact that a
small amount of solution will be
left in the boiler, it is necessary
to rinse the boiler out with clean
water 2 or 3 times. Your steam
cleaner is now ready for use.
Note: When storing your unit, always
drain any residual water in the boiler and
do not tighten the safety filler cap onto the
unit. Always leave the safety filler cap
loose on the unit when not in use.
To Descale the Steam Cleaner
Water
Use tap water for all your cleaning
needs.
However, if you live in an area with
hard water, use de-mineralized /
distilled water when steaming light
colored fabrics to eliminate the
possibility of hard water stains.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT add cleaning
solutions, scented perfumes, oils or
any other chemicals to the water used
in this appliance. Use tap water or
distilled/purified water if the tap
water in your area is very hard.
Care and Maintenance
Filling or Re-filling Your Steam
Cleaner With Water
IMPORTANT: Always insure that the
unit is “UNPLUGGED” from the wall
receptacle prior to initial filling or re-filling
the water tank and has been allowed to
cool for 15 minutes. Never attempt to fill
this unit under a water tap, always use
the filling funnel provided.
WARNING: Allow unit to cool for
15 minutes before refilling. When
refilling the steam cleaner while the boiler is
still hot, there is a risk that water will squirt
back during filling and cause scalding.
Extreme care should be taken when
refilling the unit. Use caution when
opening the Safety/Filler Cap as cap may
become hot during use and escaping
steam can cause scalding.
Before Re-Filling:
Step 1: Press the steam switch on the
hand grip to the “On” position to
vent any remaining steam that is
in the boiler.
