OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Components

Power "On" Light (red): This light will

illuminate when the unit is plugged into

the 120V wall outlet and will remain on

until the unit is unplugged.

CAUTION:

Read the instructions

for "Filling the Water Tank" before

opening the Water Tank Cover.

Always unplug before filling.

Filling Your Steam Bottle With Water

IMPORTANT:

Always insure that the unit

is "UNPLUGGED" from the wall receptacle

prior to initial filling or re-filling the water

tank. Use tap water or distilled/purified

water if the tap water in your area is very

hard.

WARNING:

Never attempt to fill

this unit under a water tap, always

use the filling flask that is provided.

Failure to follow these steps will cause the

water tank to overfill and may pose an

electrical safety hazard.

Step 1: Before filling the Steam Bottle,

make sure that the unit is NOT

plugged in.

Step 2: Hold unit upside down and

remove the water tank filling plug.

(See caution above.)

Step 3: Using the filling flask add

8 US Fl. Oz. (240 ml) of water.

Do not overfill. (Fig. 1)

Replace the water tank filling plug

making sure that it is firmly in

place.

To Use Your Steam Bottle

Step 1: Connect desired attachments

onto the concentrator nozzle

Step 2: Plug the unit into a standard

(120 volt, grounded) wall

receptacle. The red power light

will now illuminate.

Step 3: Allow approximately 30 - 60

seconds for unit to reach its

working

temperature.

The blue

steam ready light will illuminate to

indicate that the steam is ready.

Step 4: Upon initial use, some water will

come out from the nozzle of

the attachment. This is normal.

IMPORTANT:

When the Steam Bottle

has run out of water, steam output will

decrease and then cease.

NOTE:

First usage may require 6-10 rapid

pushes on steam push button before

steam exits. Keep pressing for a few

seconds until steam has developed

from first rapid depressing of steam

trigger, then you can continue

intermittent pressing of steam trigger as

detailed above.

IMPORTANT

: Do NOT add cleaning

solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any

other chemicals to the water used in

this appliance. Use regular tap water

or distilled/purified water if the tap

water in your area is very hard.

CAUTION

: Press steam trigger

intermittently no more than once

every 1 or 2 seconds. Rapid pressing in

succession will cause water leaking and

spitting. Wait for steam pressure to reduce

before pressing steam trigger again. By

pressing intermittently you will note a

rhythm for maintaining a continuous flow of

steam without any water dripping or

leaking.

Using the Fixed Concentrator

Nozzle

Using the steam cleaner with the

concentrator nozzle is very useful for

cleaning surfaces that are difficult to

reach. (Fig. 2) It is ideal for radiators, door

and window jambs, shutters and sanitary

fixtures.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Nylon Detail Brushes (x4)

Four nylon detail brushes are included

with your steam cleaner to enable you

to use a different one for different areas

in your home. (Fig. 3)

They are best for any task requiring

concentrated medium-pressure steam

with additional rubbing action to loosen

embedded dirt such as cleaning grout in

between the tiles, ceramic and marble.

To use: Push the nylon detail brush onto

the end of the concentrator nozzle.

Triangle Towel Adapter

A small triangle towel adapter is included

with your unit for use on small surfaces or

upholstery.

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.

To use: Push the triangle towel adapter

onto the end of the concentrator nozzle.

Place the triangle towel over the triangle

towel adapter.

Extended Concentrator

The extended concentrator can be used

to clean under toilet bowl rims or in hard

to reach places.

To use: Push the

extended concentrator

onto the end of the

concentrator nozzle.

Squeegee

This attachment is very useful for

cleaning large windows, plastic material,

ceramic, tiled or marble surfaces.

To use: Attach the squeegee to the

window squeegee handle. With the

steam cleaner, apply steam abundantly

to the surface and then remove excess

water and dirt with the wiping edge.

CAUTION:

When cleaning

windows, always avoid

any sudden changes in

temperature to

prevent glass

breakage or cracks.

NOTE:

If using the steam cleaner with

the nozzle pointing downwards, you will

need to return the unit to an upright

position every now and again to enable

the tube inside the water tank to dip into

the water reservoir, thereby preserving

the flow of water to the heating

element.

Scrubbing Pads & Holder

This attachment is very useful for

cleaning counters, ceramic, tiled or

marble surfaces.

To use: Attach the scrubbing pad holder

onto the concentrator nozzle. Then

press the scrubbing pad onto the base

of the scrubbing pad holder and twist

slightly. This will help the scrubbing

pads stay on more securely.
