Cleaning procedure to remove lime scale
If your H2O SteamFX™ begins to produce steam slower than usual or stops producing steam you may need to remove lime scale. It is necessary to
remove lime scale on a regular basis, every 25 times you use a full tank of water or once a month, especially in areas with hard water.
To remove lime scale from your H2O SteamFX™, please follow these procedures:
Using the Cleaning Pin
Swirl and push the pin up and down the small hole of the steam outlet. Ensure that all scale debris have been removed from the steam outlet
before reassembling any attachment.
Using a cleaning solution
1. Prepare a solution of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 water and add to the Water Tank.
2. Ensure that steam released is aimed away from or any surrounding objects. Plug the appliance into a properly grounded electrical outlet, turn it
ON and allow the unit to produce steam until the vinegar/water solution is used up.
3. Repeat the above procedure as many times as necessary until a normal steam flow is achieved.
4. Fill the Water Tank with fresh water and rinse out.
5. Fill the Water Tank with fresh water again, and release steam through the system until the Water Tank is empty.
6. Perform a test cleaning on a suitable isolated area after each lime scale removal to ensure that there is no debris left in the system.
To clean calcium deposits building up inside the Water Tank:
Add 1-2 tablespoons of white vinegar to a full Water Tank, close the Water Tank cap and shake the contents. DO NOT TURN THE APPLIANCE ON. Let the
unit sit for a few hours. Empty the Water Tank and rinse with clean water until it rinses clear.
Cleaning blocked steamer accessories:
Due to the high mineral content of water in some areas, some calcium buildup might develop inside the tip of the Straight Nozzle. To clean it, we recommend
using a spray lubricant. Spray a small burst or two of the lubricant inside the tip of the Straight Nozzle. After spraying the lubricant, fill the steamer with
water and run a continuous jet of steam through the affected accessory for several minutes to remove the deposit.
WE RECOMMEND PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE IN A PROTECTED AND WELL-VENTILATED AREA.
