show that unit is receiving power and Boiler has begun to heat.
CAUTION: This unit uses a grounded (3-prong) electrical plug. Use only in properly
installed 3-prong electrical outlets. Do not attempt to alter plug or circumvent this
safety feature in any way.
2. After approximately 3 minutes, Heating Indicator Light will turn off. This indicates that Boiler is
fully heated, and unit is ready to begin steaming.
NOTE: Heating Indicator Light may cycle off and on during use, accompanied by a slight
temporary drop in steam pressure – this is a normal part of operation, as the Boiler
works to maintain a steady optimal temperature.

the manufacturer’s guidelines for material being steamed. For items in question, test
steam on an inconspicuous area before proceeding.
4. Using a slight back-and-forth motion over the area you are steaming will enhance the cleaning
process, as will scrubbing the area (if a Utility Brush is connected). Wipe steamed areas with a
clean cloth to remove loosened dirt and grime.
CAUTION: Wiping an area while it is still wet is recommended, but use care when wiping
surfaces such as metal that may still be hot.
5. To effectively kill bacteria and other microorganisms, hold Steam Aperture (and any connected
accessories) approximately 1/2 inch from surface and press Steam Button. Keep Steam
Button held and concentrate steam on the same spot for at least 5 seconds.

MINERAL BUILD-UP
A common maintenance need for steam appliances is the removal of build-up caused by high
mineral content in many municipal water supplies. This mineral build-up may limit the
effectiveness and reduce the life of your Handheld Steam Cleaner.
The best way to minimize mineral build-up is to use distilled or de-mineralized water when
using your Handheld Steam Cleaner. In addition, it is recommended that the unit be cleaned at
least once a month in order to remove any deposits that form. This will help to extend the life of
your Handheld Steam Cleaner and keep it functioning at its maximum potential.
To remove mineral build-up:
1. Unplug power cord from electrical outlet.
NOTE: Unit should remain unplugged for duration of cleaning procedure.
2. Allow unit to cool (at least 30 minutes for complete cooling).
3. Press and hold Steam Button to release any remaining steam pressure.
4. Remove any connected accessories from unit.
5. Unscrew and remove Boiler Cap. Drain any remaining water in Boiler into a sink or tub.
6. Using Measuring Cup, make a mixture of 3 oz. (90 ml.) water and 3 oz. (90 ml.) vinegar.
NOTE: For best results, it is highly recommended that distilled or de-mineralized water
be used when cleaning Boiler.
7.
8. Allow water/vinegar solution to soak in Boiler for 30-40 minutes.
9. Drain water/vinegar solution out of Boiler into a sink or tub.
10. Thoroughly rinse Boiler with fresh water until vinegar odor dissipates.
11. Loosely replace Boiler Cap and follow normal storage procedure as outlined in Proper
Storage section above.
