Water tube with brass ball weight attached
(20)
The brass ball weight inside the water tank is
attached to the end of the suction hose. The ball is
weighted and designed to freely move around the
water tank of the portable steam cleaner (10). If
the ball does get stuck outside the water level,
gently shake the product until it comes free. The
ball must remain in the water so steam can be
generated regardless of the orientation of the
portable steam cleaner.
Rinsing the water tank
Regularly rinse the water tank to release any
deposits that have collected on the bottom of the
tank. Only use deionised, demineralised or
distilled water (available from most large
supermarkets) and fit the filler cap to allow
vigorous rinsing. Empty the water tank by
removing the filler cap
(9) and pouring out the
water.
To facilitate rinsing the water tank, we recommend
removing the handle
(1) and floorhead (22) (see
points 3 and 4 of ‘Using the portable steam
cleaner’, page 8).
Allow the inside of the water tank to dry out before
replacing the filler cap.
Follow the two maintenance steps below after
every use.
1. Switch the cleaner off and unplug from the socket.
Place immediately on a suitable surface (eg. tiled
floor) where the residual heat/moisture in the floor
nozzle/cloth will not affect the surface. Wait until
the cleaner has cooled down completely.
2. Empty the water tank by removing the filler cap (9)
and pouring out the water.
To facilitate emptying the water tank, we
recommend removing the handle
(1) and
floorhead (22) (see points 3 and 4 of ‘Using the
portable steam cleaner’, page 8).
Allow the inside of the water tank to dry out before
replacing the filler cap.
We recommend storing the steam cleaner with the
carpet glider
(31) attached, but the cloths
removed to minimise the likelihood of any water
leaking onto surfaces.
Wrap the power cord
(4) around the two cord
storage hooks (3 & 6), rotating the upper cord
storage hook (3) upwards to secure the power
cord in place.
Put all accessories into the accessory bag
(41)
and hang the bag from the upper cord storage
hook.
WARNING: Always unplug the steam cleaner
from the mains supply before undertaking any
maintenance procedures.
Overall maintenance
Your cleaner is manufactured to withstand normal
day-to-day use, but an occasional wipe over with
a damp cloth will help maintain it. Abrasive
cleaners should not be used.
Cleaning the cloths
The micro-fibre floor cloth (27) and the elasticated
utility cloth (36) can be machine washed (40ºC
max). For heavy soiling, soak the cloths in warm
water and detergent or a mild stain remover.
IMPORTANT: Do not use bleach or fabric
softener.
Allow cloths to completely dry before storing.
Replacement cloths can be purchased by calling
our UK helpline directly on: 0844 873 0726 or
logging onto www.morphyrichards.com.
Maintaining the attachments
Dirt and blockages should be regularly removed
from the attachments to help prolong their usage.
