Cleaning and Rinsing Steam Mop
If distilled or demineralized water is regularly used there is no
need to clean the Water Tank.
Rinsing the Water Tank
We recommend you periodically rinse the Steam Mop to prevent the accu-
mulation of calcium and sediment caused by hard water use. After 10-15
uses:
• Fill Water Tank 3/4 full with hot tap water
• Shake unit several times.
• Plug in Steam Mop and flush out steam into a sink or bathtub.
• Wipe the Steam Mop Base with a damp cloth and wipe dry.
NEVER HOLD THE STEAMER UNDER TAP TO FILL. Use the Water
Cup provided to fill.
Cleaning the Water Tank
If you use tap water, we reccomend cleaning the Water Tank every 3-4
months (depending on mineral buildup). Use a Hard Water Mineral Remo-
ver (found in most hardware or small appliance stores).
• Plug in and run Steam Mop in sink or bathtub until all water has flushed
from the Water Tank.
• Follow manufacturer's instructions on cleaner package, and fill tank with
specified amount of cleaner.
• Flush cleaner from Water Tank and fill with water. Rinse thoroughly and
flush water from Tank. Repeat flushing with water until water from Tank
comes out clear.
• Replace Tank Cap and store appliance properly.
Cleaning of Water Tank and Steam Mop is the sole responsibility of appliance owner
and is not covered by the product warranty.
Before first use after cleaning the Water Tank, hold Steam Mop so it is
facing downward and direct steam into a sink or standing shower to
clear any leftover residue from Tank. When clean drops of water appear,
wipe clean with soft cloth. Your Steam Mop is now ready for use.
