CLEANING FAQS
When is steamjet ready? In approximately 30 seconds.
Can I use steamjet on all oor surfaces? On all hard oors like marble, ceramic,
stone, linoleum, sealed hardwood oors and parquet.
Does steamjet emit steam automatically? No, to produce steam you should press the
steam/sweep trigger button under the handle.
Can I use it vertically? No, steamjet can be used only on horizontal oor surfaces.
Can I put detergents or other chemicals inside the tank? No, you would damage the
product.
What if in the city where I live the water is very hard? You can use ltered water or
you will have to change the lter cassette more often. If you nd very weak steam, check
steam orice, you can descale it by inserting small tools into steam orice if necessary.
When is it time to change the lter cassette? How do you notice it? It depends on
the water hardness. Normally 6 months. You will notice that the colour of yellow resin
inside the lter cassette becomes a bit dull.
How long will one tank of water last before needing to be relled? Approximately 20
minutes if you press continuously the trigger.
Is the mop washable? Yes, it can be washed by hand or in the washing machine with a
mild detergent at max temperature 40°c. Do not use bleach or fabric softener.
How often should I replace the mop? It depends on different factors above all how
hard the oor is. The best way to understand when to change the mop is when the mop is
still dirty after having washed it or if you notice that it doesn’t perform like before.
What does the sweeper function do? The sweep mode is on the model ssw1700 and
allows you to clear the oor of any small debris before steam cleaning. Ensure the carpet
glider, textile pad and pad plate are removed from the oor head.
