HOW TO USE YOUR STEAM CLEANER

FILLING WITH WATER
Remove the boiler cap ( 1 ) and pour 700ml ( 23 oz ) of water in the boiler. Use the provided funnel if needed. The more water you put in, the more humidity will be contained in the steam. The more space you leave for steam, the drier it will be. Always respect the recommended quantity of water. Securely replace the boiler cap.

Do not overfill with water. Leave space for steam!

PLUGGING IN THE MACHINE
Unravel completely the electrical cord. Connect the electrical cord to a 15 or 20 amp 110V / 120V power outlet ( make sure the circuit is not already used by another high wattage appliance ).

TURNING THE MACHINE ON
Press the power button ON. The orange SteamReady™ indicator will come on when the unit reaches operating pressure, after approximately 8 minutes of heating time.
During use, the orange SteamReady™ indicator will turn on and off.
This is normal, and indicates that steam is being generated in the boiler.

ADJUSTING THE STEAM PRESSURE
Adjust the desired steam pressure using the steam pressure dial on the steam cleaner, from minimum ( left ) to maximum ( right ). Connect the accessory that you want to use to the steam hose.
To release steam, simply press the steam release trigger on the hose handle.

REFILLING WITH WATER
When steam runs out or if the low water indicator comes on during usage and you would like to continue using the steam cleaner, you will need to follow theses steps:
TURN THE UNIT OFF
by pressing the OFF button.

RELEASE ALL STEAM PRESSURE
by pressing on the steam release trigger on the hose and let the steam cleaner cool down for 10 minutes.

REFILL WITH 700 ML ( 23 OZ. ) OF WATER.
Refasten the boiler cap ( 1 ) and press the power button ( 2 ) ON. Wait about 8 minutes for the SteamReady™ indicator ( 6 ) to turn on and continue steam cleaning.

Do not overfill. Leave space for steam!

If all steam pressure has not been released, steam may escape from the boiler cap when opening, use caution.

TURNING THE MACHINE OFF
When you are done using your steam cleaner, press the power button OFF and unplug the unit.

STORING YOUR STEAM CLEANER
It is safe to leave water in the boiler when the steam cleaner is not in use.
If it is for an extended period of time (months), then it is best to flush out the remaining water. To do so, follow the water removal instructions as outlined in the maintenance of the boiler section.

This machine shall be stored indoors only.

TRIANGULAR TOOL
The triangular tool is the best tool to disinfect. Use it with the microfiber cloth or the microfiber bonnet to insulate steam and provide a higher steam temperature to disinfect. The microfiber cloth or microfiber bonnet will also pick up dirt as you clean. Use the connector to attach the triangular tool to the steam hose or extension tubes. The bristles are made of a soft nylon to be delicate and safe on most surfaces. With steam these bristles quickly lose their original shape. This is perfectly normal. You can continue to use the brushes until the bristles are worn out.

RECTANGULAR TOOL
The rectangular tool is used to clean floors, walls, and carpets. Use it with the microfiber cloth or the rectangular tool microfiber bonnet to insulate steam and provide a higher steam temperature to disinfect. The microfiber cloth or microfiber bonnet will also pick up dirt as you clean. Use the connector to attach the rectangular tool to the extension tubes or the steam hose. The bristles are made of a soft nylon to be delicate and safe on most surfaces. With steam these bristles quickly lose their original shape. This is perfectly normal. You can continue to use the brushes until the bristles are worn out.

MICROFIBER CLOTH
The microfiber cloth is used to pick up dirt as you clean. It will also help insulate the steam to reach a higher steam temperature.
Use it on the triangular tool, the rectangular tool or to wipe off dirt after you steam with the lance. Machine washable.

Always respect the surface that you are cleaning, adhere to the surface cleaning instructions.
Do a colour test on a hidden section before you begin cleaning.

HOW TO INSTALL THE CLOTH ON THE TRIANGULAR TOOL

FIRST, place the triangular tool on the center of the microfiber cloth.

HOW TO INSTALL THE MICROFIBER CLOTH ON THE RECTANGULAR TOOL

FIRST, fold the edges of the microfiber cloth.

WELL DONE.

TRIANGULAR TOOL MICROFIBER BONNET
The microfiber bonnet is used with the triangular tool to pick up dirt as you clean. It will also insulate steam and provide a higher steam temperature to disinfect.

RECTANGULAR TOOL MICROFIBER BONNET
The microfiber bonnet is used with the rectangular tool to pick up dirt as you clean. It will also insulate steam and provide a higher steam temperature to disinfect.

WINDOW TOOL
Use the window tool to clean mirrors and windows. Attach the window tool to the extension tubes or the steam hose. Use the foam side to scrub the surface and the squeegee side to wipe of the dirt and condensation. Wipe the corners of the surface with a microfiber cloth.

During cold weather, warm up the windows with the window tool from a 2"-4" distance and with very little steam flow before starting the actual cleaning ( to prevent possible damage to the window ).

EXTENSION TUBES
Connect the steam hose to the extension tubes, pressing the locking button lightly until the button snaps in.
You may connect any accessory to one or two extension tubes to extend your reach.

LANCE
Use the lance alone to clean surfaces that are difficult to reach and prone to scratches, for example stainless steel or enamel. Use it with the nylon brush ( least abrasive ) or the brass brush for additional scrubbing action. Always be careful when using the brushes to prevent damage or scratching.

SMALL BRUSHES
SMALL NYLON BRUSH
The small nylon brush, because of its softness, is ideal for cleaning grout, sink, or any surface requiring light scrubbing action. The bristles are made of a soft nylon to be delicate and safe on most surfaces. With steam these bristles quickly lose their original shape. This is perfectly normal. You can continue to use the brushes until the bristles are worn out.

SMALL BRASS BRUSH
Tougher cleaning jobs might require the use of the small brass brush. For surfaces where dirt cannot be removed by the nylon brush carefully, using the brass brush may give better results.

RISK OF BURNS
This appliance produces steam at a very high temperature. The steam cleaner and its accessories can get very hot always use appropriate precautions. Avoid direct skin contact.

IMPORTANT WARNING
Steam is a powerful tool. Like any other tool, it should be used with caution. Certain surfaces, fabrics, materials and finishes are water and heat sensitive and can be damaged or discolored by steam. ALWAYS check with the manufacturer of the surface or product being cleaned before using steam. TEST a small, hidden surface to make sure the surface can be steamed.
DO NOT leave steam in one spot on any surface for any period of time with a wet cleaning cloth/pad attached as this will damage your floors.
DO NOT use on unsealed wood, on wood or tile floors that are highly worn, unfinished or have a wax or oil finish. Surfaces that have been treated with wax or no-wax floors may be damaged by heat.
DO NOT use on leather, synthetic fabrics, velvet or other delicate, steam-sensitive materials.
DO NOT use the steam cleaner for any other purpose than what is described in the instructions manual.
In no event is Dupray liable for incidental or consequential damages to anyone, of any nature whatsoever. Some states/provinces do not permit the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above may not apply to you.

ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit simultaneously with the steam cleaner. If an extension cord is necessary, a 15-amp rated cord with a 3-prong grounded plug should be used. Cords rated for less may overheat and cause damage.
3-PRONG GROUNDED PLUG
This system features a 3-prong grounded plug. As a safety feature, this plug will only fit into a grounded outlet.
If the plug does not fit fully into the power outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
