Care of Your Portable Steam Cleaner
STORAGE
1
Let the appliance cool down before cleaning
or storing.
2
Turn the water tank cap anticlockwise and remove
the cap. Tilt the unit and pour any remaining water
in to the sink or water tight container. Replace the
cap by turning clockwise. Empty the water tank after
each use.
3
Store in a cool dry location.
CLEANING THE STEAM BOTTLE
1
A periodic rinse of your steam cleaner will help free
it from normal water deposits. This is recommended
every 10-15 fillings to free up any scale deposit. Fill
the reservoir with water and secure the cap. Shake
vigorously for approximately 10-15 times and remove
the cap to empty the reservoir.

CARE OF YOUR CLEANING POCKETS AND/OR
PADS
1
We recommend washing your pocket or pad
separately from other fabrics to avoid picking up lint.
Only use liquid detergent (no powder detergent). Do
not use any fabric softeners or bleach. Line dry. Do
not tumble dry. (fig. 17)
2
If there are loose threads on the cleaning pad
carefully cut the thread with scissors. Do not pull on
them or cut at the base. (fig. 18)
IMPORTANT: The pocket or pad may be very hot
from the steam. Use caution when removing. Let the
unit cool for 2-3 minutes.
DECALCIFYING YOUR STEAM MOP
Calcium and mineral deposits can build up and impact the
performance of your steam mop over time. To extend the life
of your product we recommend that you use distilled water.
Cleaning tip: To prevent clogging, it is recommended
that you periodically clean the Concentrator Nozzle and
the Accessory Hose stem with the cleaning tool provided
or a paper clip.

CLEANING THE NOZZLES
1
Your portable steam cleaner should not normally
require cleaning, however, should you notice a
decrease in the steam output, it may be necessary to
remove mineral deposits built up around the nozzles.
2
Unplug the cleaner from the electrical outlet.
3
Use the provided nozzle cleaner or a small diameter
stiff metal wire, such as a straightened metal paper
clip, and carefully insert the end of the wire into the
nozzle orifice. See illustrations below. (fig. 19, fig. 20)
4
Move the wire back and forth several times to
remove any deposits.
5
Plug in the appliance to the power outlet and test to
note steam output.
