• Never unscrew the tank cap during use. The tank is under
pressure.
• The appliance may not be tilted by more than 45° during operation.
• Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
• Keep the appliance away from rain and moisture. The appliance is not
suitable for outdoor use.
• Only use the appliance in containers/pools that are not filled with
water or other liquids.
• Do not operate the appliance without water in the tank. Always top
up with water in good time.
• Empty the water tank when the appliance is not in use.
• Never fill the tank with anything other than water. Never put
additives (such as perfume, stain remover or products containing
alcohol) in the water as they may damage the appliance or make it
dangerous to use.
• Always remove the mains plug from the socket and allow the
appliance to cool down completely before topping up with water.
• Do not overfill the tank. Do not exceed the maximum prescribed
filling level. Please use the measuring jug and funnel included in the
appliance's scope of supply.
• Ensure that the water tank's closure cap has been screwed down
carefully before use.
• Only carry the appliance by the handle.
• Do not touch any hot areas on the appliance. It is normal for the
steam cleaner to heat up during operation.
• Do not use the Vapormate to treat any items of clothing that are still
being worn on the body.
• A little water may drip out of the nozzle from time to time. This is
completely normal and it is merely condensation.
• The force and heat of the steam may have an adverse effect on
some materials. Always check whether a surface is suitable for
treatment with the appliance by carrying out a test beforehand on a
concealed area.
• Always include these operating instructions if passing the steam
cleaner on to a third party.
• Use only the original accessories that are part of the scope of
supply.
• To avoid risks, never carry out repairs yourself. Consult the Royal
Appliance Customer Service Centre for this and have the appliance
repaired by qualified skilled staff using original spare parts.
• Always switch the appliance off, remove the mains plug and allow
the steam cleaner to cool down before cleaning or maintaining it.
