CARE OF YOUR CLEANING POCKETS
1 We recommend washing your cleaning pocket
separately from other fabrics to avoid picking
up lint. For optimal cleaning performance, the
pockets may need to be washed up to (3) three
times. Only use liquid detergent (no
powder detergent). Do not use any
fabric softeners or bleach. Line dry. Do not
tumble dry. (fig. 24)
2 If there are loose threads on the cleaning pocket,
carefully cut the thread with scissors. Do not pull
on them or cut at the base. (fig. 25)
IMPORTANT: The cleaning pocket 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 THE NOZZLE
NOTE: To prevent clogging, it is recommended
that you periodically clean the Direct Steam Nozzle
and the extension hose stem.
1 Your Handheld Steamer 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 a small diameter stiff metal wire, such as a
straightened metal paperclip, and carefully insert
the end of the wire into the nozzle orifice. See
illustration above. (fig. 26)
4 Move the wire back and forth several times to
remove any deposits.
5 Plug in the appliance to the power outlet and test
steam output.
