Please note that this steam cleaner has a “flow through injection” type boiler
and is not a pressurized system. It will take approximately 45-90 seconds for
the steam injector to heat up and the “steam ready light” to go off. Once the
steam ready light has gone off, push the steam switch on the handgrip to the
“On” position (I) in order to start the steam flow. Steam power will steadily
increase during the first four (4) minutes of use, after which time steam output
will stabilize. Some steam will condense around the floor brush when in use

should be used. Cords rated for less
amperage may overheat. Care should be
taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be
pulled or tripped over.
Note: We recommend that you drain
the water tank after every use.
3. Do not leave unattended when the system
is connected to a power supply/electrical
outlet.
Tips On How To Use Your
System
Water
• Using scented fabric softener while
washing the towels will cause the
scent to be released into the air when
using the towels with your steam
Caution: Upon initial use, the steam will be mixed with water,
hot enough to scald. Ensure that the floor brush is
resting on the floor or the hose handgrip is directed
away from user when steam switch is turned on. Never
direct the nozzle or brush end of the unit toward
yourself or anyone near you.
•
Use tap water for all your cleaning
needs, however, if you live in an area
with hard water, use
system.
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors
Use the floor brush with a 100% cotton
terry cloth attached, ( see page 7 for
details). Move the brush slowly in back
and forth motions. When the towel is
soiled, you can turn the towel over or
replace it with a clean towel. If you are
working on a very dirty area, we
recommend that you move the brush
over the area slowly, several times. If it
is a wood floor, do NOT leave the unit
stationary for any length of time to avoid
heat or moisture build-up in the wood.
By cleaning with the towel over the
brush, you will not affect the shine on the
floor.
To Clean Waxed Floors: Install a clean
towel(s) on the floor brush, work quickly.
The towel will absorb the dirt but not
remove the wax.
Vinyl Floors: Do not allow heat to buildup
in any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it
enough to affect its texture. Work quickly
on vinyl. Use two (2) towels on floor brush.
demineralized/distilled water.
Important: Do NOT add cleaning
solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any
other chemicals to the water used in
this appliance. Use tap water or
distilled/purified water if the tap
water in your area is very hard.

Temperature
• The vapor temperature at the tip of
the nozzle is between 220°F and 240°F.
• The temperature of the vapor falls to
100 °F at a distance of 10 inches from
the nozzle.
CAUTION: A towel wrapped around the
brush can become hot enough to burn.
Make sure that you let the towel cool off
before touching it or changing it.
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type
3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This plug will only fit into
an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a
safety feature. If the plug should fail to fit the outlet,
contact an electrician to replace the outlet. Do not
attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the
Using Towels
Note: We strongly recommend the
use of two (2) 100 % cotton towels
layered one on top of the other.
• For best results use 100% cotton white
terry cloth towels.
• Use correct size (8” x 17”) of towel to
allow you to wrap the towel over the
ends of the brush and clip it under the
spring loaded towel clips.
• The purpose of using towels is to
absorb the moisture and dirt being
removed. Always use dry towels. A
wet towel will smear the dirt.
• Wash towels with strong detergent
and bleach.
Tile Floors: For tile and marble floors only,
if there is an area of the floor which is
excessively dirty, you may remove the
towels and agitate the area with the brush
bristles directly. Do not let the area dry.
Wipe immediately with a clean cloth. Re-
clean with brush and towels in place.

Attaching a Towel to the
This appliance cleans many types of hard surfaces with the force of steam without any
need for chemical cleaning products Obviously, it is also the ideal solution in particular
situations such as removing wall-paper, washing windows and degreasing many hard
surfaces in and around the home.
Floor Brush
100% white terry cloth towel can be fitted
on this brush, so as to absorb the dirt and
protect delicate surfaces.
Important: Please note that bristles may
break through thin towels. We recommend
that two (2) towels, laid one on top of the
other be used. This will ensure that the
brush bristles do not break through and
that the towels will be sufficiently absorbent
and retain as much dirt as possible.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Before using the appliance make sure that the materials or the surfaces to be
cleaned can withstand a temperature of 212° F (100ºC). The steamer is

WARNING: ALWAYS unplug the appliance prior to any type
of maintenance on the unit. As all the appliances are
thoroughly tested before sale, there may be some residual
water in the boiler.
1.
Before turning the steam switch to the
“On” position, wait until the “Steam
Ready” light(Red) located on the unit has
turned off.
ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
2.
Setting this switch to the “On” position will
start the flow of steam.
To connect the tube and the accessories (fig. 1), insert part
(A) in part (B) turning this slightly to facilitate insertion. Make
sure that key (C) is securely fastened in the hole provided (D).
Open the reservoir cover (1) and pour in 6.3 cups
(1.5 liters) of tap water or distilled water if your tap water is
particularly hard. Never add cleaning fluids. Close the
reservoir cover (1). Before plugging in the appliance, make
sure that you have assembled the tubes and accessories
correctly and the steam switch on handgrip is “Off”. Press the
on/off switch (2) to “On”; the steam ready light (3) will come
on; when the light (3) switches off (after about 1 minute), you
can start to use the appliance. To spray steam, simply press
the steam switch button on the handle (6) (fig. 2).
CAUTION:
Upon initial use, the steam will be mixed with

steam switch is turned on. Never direct the
nozzle or brush end of the unit toward yourself
or anyone near you.
CAUTION:
The “On/Off Steam Switch” located on the
handle must be in the “Off” position before
attaching or disassembling accessories.
When there is no more steam, fill the tank again. To avoid
damage, never use the steam gun without water. If the tank is
full and no steam is sprayed, have the appliance checked by
the manufacturer. Always switch off the appliance after use,
pull out the plug and drain any residual water from water tank.
Never leave the “Steam Switch” in the “On”

Important User Information
Glass & Tile Squeegee
Please note that this steam cleaner has a “flow through
injection” type boiler and is not a pressurized system. It
will take approximately 45-90 seconds for the steam
injector to heat up and the “steam ready light” to go off.
Once the steam ready light has gone off, push the steam
switch on the handgrip to the “On” position (I) in order to
start the steam flow. Steam power will steadily increase
during the first four (4) minutes of use, after which time
steam output will stabilize. Some steam will condense
around the floor brush when in use and will cause hard
surfaces to become wet during the cleaning process, this
is normal.
This attachment is very useful for cleaning
large windows, plastic material, ceramic,
tiled surfaces, marble planes, etc.
Apply steam abundantly, rub with the
spongy side of squeegee and remove with
the glass wiping rubber located at the front
edge of squeegee.
NOZZLE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Detail Cleaning Attachment
Your steamer should not normally require cleaning, however,
should you notice a marked decrease in steam output it may
be necessary to remove mineral deposit build-up from the
nozzle orifice. First ensure that there is water in the tank.
If tank is empty, fill with water, (we recommend using purified
or mineral water), then re-start unit noting whether steam
output is normal. If steam output is still low, follow these cleaning instructions:
1. Unplug steam cleaner from wall outlet.
This attachment is very useful for cleaning
surfaces that are difficult to reach. It is ideal for
radiators, door and window jambs, shutters and
sanitary fixtures. The following parts can be
applied to this attachment:
2. 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.
3. Move wire back and forth several times to remove any deposits.
4. Reconnect appliance to power outlet, switch on and note steam output.
5. If steam performance does not improve, repeat steps #1 through #4.
