GETTING TO KNOW YOUR STEAM CLEANER
TIPS ON HOW TO USE YOUR SYSTEM
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.
Spot Cleaning (Carpets)
Use the concentrator with or without the
bristle brush. Move slowly over the soiled
area, allowing the steam to penetrate.
Agitate with the bristle brush or a clean
towel. Dab the spot with the towel (do not
rub). Repeat as necessary to remove
stain. Vacuum only after the carpet has
completely dried.
Always test color fastness of carpet in an
inconspicuous area before cleaning.
If your steam cleaner fails to remove
stubborn stains a commercially available
carpet shampoo may be required. Do
NOT
add cleaning solutions, scented
perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to
the water used in this appliance as this
may damage the unit or make it unsafe
for use.
CAUTION:
When cleaning windows,
always avoid any sudden changes in
temperature to prevent glass breakage or
cracks.
Window, Glass Surfaces and Mirrors
Use the window squeegee attachment.
Work with the steam on using the top to
bottom movements. Use the squeegee
attachment with the steam off to clear the
water from the glass. To do this without
leaving streaks, use lateral movements
from the top to the bottom of the surface.
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors
Use the Steam Pocket ™ to clean wood,
vinyl and marble floors. Move the
Steam Pocket™ across the floor as if
you are mopping. When one side of the
towel is soiled, turn the Steam Pocket™
frame and use the other side. One of
the great advantages of using our
Steam Pocket™ is that your floor will dry
faster than if you used a mop or other
floor cleaning device. It is normal that
some moisture may be left behind
depending on how quickly you move the
Steam Pocket™ across the floor and the
relative heat and humidity of the room.
Be sure to move quickly and steadily
over wood, linoleum and vinyl flooring to
avoid damaging the surface and
removing wax.
To Clean Waxed Floors: Use the
Steam Pocket™ with quick strokes.
This will cause the dirt to be removed
but not the wax.
Vinyl Floors: Do not allow heat to build
up in any kind of vinyl since it can soften
it enough to affect its texture. Work fast
on vinyl.
Tile Floors: Use the concentrator with
the bristle brush. Have the Steam
Pocket™ ready as well. Clean the grout
between the tiles with the bristle brush.
Remove the concentrator and bristle
brush and attach the hose and Steam
Pocket™. Move the Steam Pocket™
across the floor to clean the tile and
remove excess moisture and residue.
