Cleaning Floors; Refilling The Water Tank - Earlex SteamStation SC300 User Manual

Cleaning Floors

Note: If you stop working for a while a small amount of water may accumulate in the steam hose
after use. This is due to the steam cooling in the hose. When you switch the unit back on a short
jet of water may eject from the end of the hose after the steam trigger is pressed. Drain this water
by pressing the steam gun into a cloth (careful it may be hot) before starting your task.

>& 8).
• Now plug the SteamStation into the electrical
socket-outlet and switch on. Two lights should
illuminate. The red light is a power indicator.
The orange light indicates that the
>SteamStation is building steam pressure.
When the SteamStation is first turned on this
light will illuminate. The SteamStation takes
up to 7-8 minutes to reach the correct
pressure level depending on the amount of
water in the tank.

SteamStation is ready to use. The orange
light may come back on when the
SteamStation is in use. If this happens,
release the safety trigger and allow the steam
pressure to build up once again. This should
take no longer than 40 seconds. If the safety
trigger is pressed when the orange light is on,
hot water may leak out from the
SteamStation.
