Squeegee nozzle
For cleaning glass and mirror panels. Use the
squeegee at a very low steam flow by adjusting
the variable steam setting ¤. Use a cloth to
wipe the blade and remove excess water
during usage.
This accessory is ideal for cleaning windows,
patio doors, conservatory glass, tiles and
shower screens.
To clean windows, start at the top of the
window, pressing the squeegee to the surface
and drag downwards. Move the squeegee in
straight passes from top to bottom. Wipe the
rubber blade and the bottom edge of the
window dry after each pass.
For small window panels, remove the squeegee
tool and spray the steam directly onto the
surface. Use the squeegee separately to wipe
away the moisture.
WARNING: Do not use on very cold glass, as
the sudden temperature change may crack
the glass.
Spot brush
For cleaning the grout between tiles or
stubborn marks and stains on hard surfaces.
Use at medium or high steam flow by adjusting
the variable steam setting ¤.
Apply gentle pressure. Too much force may
damage the bristles. Two sets of spare bristles
are supplied. To change, loosen the screw and
pull out the bristle set.
Utility nozzle
For cleaning tiled surfaces, cabinets and
worktops in kitchens and bathrooms. Also use
this attachment for cleaning upholstery,
curtains, blinds, pillows and mattresses. Use on
a low to medium steam flow by adjusting the
variable steam setting ¤. Cover the utility
nozzle Ë with the elasticated utility cloth Í I.

The utility tool can also be used to clean
sanitary ware such as toilet bowls, taps or drain
covers. Use this nozzle at maximum steam
flow. Point it directly at non-permanent stains
on carpets or upholstery whilst holding a clean
cloth near the stained area to capture any
loosened dirt.
NOTE: When the steam cleaner is used for
cleaning in a horizontal or inclined position,
shake the steam cleaner gently to ensure that
the weighted tubing inside the tank is in the
correct (immersed) position.
STORAGE
Wrap the cord around the two power cord
holders › and ‚, folding the lower holder out
from its location on the lower handle ·.
Your steam cleaner comes with a hanger strap
⁄ to hang the product from during storage.

AFTER USE

Follow the two maintenance steps below after
every use.
1 Switch the cleaner off and unplug from the
socket. Wait until the cleaner has cooled down
completely.
2 Empty the water tank by unscrewing the cap
and pouring out the water. Allow the inside of
the water tank to dry out before replacing the
filler cap.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT: Unless distilled or de-ionised
water is used, then after approximately each
ten uses, the steam outlet must be removed
and cleaned along with the boiler.
Rinsing the water tank
Regularly rinse the water tank ‡ to release any
limescale deposits that have collected on the
bottom of the tank. Use clean cold water and fit
the filler cap fi to allow vigorous rinsing.
Naturally occurring minerals in tap water can
result in a build-up of limescale inside all water
heating appliances. This can affect
performance and, with time, could result in
blockages that could stop the product working.
To prevent this possibility, we strongly
recommend using distilled or de-ionised
water in this steam cleaner. This is especially
important in hard water areas.
