2. SAFETY REGULATIONS
The electric supply connection shall be made by a qualified electrician and comply with IEC 60364-1.
It is recommended that the electric supply to this machine should include either a residual current device that will interrupt the
supply if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30ma for 30ms or a device, which will prove the earth circuit.
SAFETY VALVE This machine is equipped with two safety valves, able to ensure the safety of the machine itself in case other
primary control devices are inefficient (due to a failure). Due to the extreme importance of these components and as not to
compromise the safety of the machine, it is recommended to provide to check them and to substitute them through an authorized
service center every 2 years starting from the purchasing date.
PRESSURE SWITCH This machine is equipped with a pressure switch able to check and to maintain the pressure under
certain preset limits (ref. “rated pressure” on the technical label underneath the machine). In case there would be a steam leakage
on the lower side of the machine, it means that the functioning of this device has been compromised and the safety valve has
been involved as to limit the boiler’s internal pressure. It is recommended not to use the machine, immediately
unplug the machine from the power feeding and call the service center.
SCALE DRAIN FROM THE BOILER If you are not acquainted with the hardness level of the used water, it is
recommended to proceed with the boiler cleaning (according to the procedure indicated in the proper section) after 24 hours of
usage. On the contrary, if you know the hardness level and it is between 0 and 4 french degrees , the boiler cleaning can be
carried out after 100 hours of usage.

TOOLS USAGE
Insert the steam plug (12) into the tools connection socket (7) placed on the unit.
Press well as the block switch (13) has to guarantee the fixing of the tool. Activate the general switch (2) and the boiler switch (3) then wait
for about 5 minutes until the green indicator light switches on. The green light indicates that the boiler has reached the correct working
pressure.
The switches (10,11,11A and 11b) placed on the hose must be turned off.
Once the indicator (5) is turned on select the steam exit using the switches 11a and 11b (11a minimum steam, 11b = medium steam, 11a
+11b = maximum steam) then press the security button (10) for the steam exit.
The button (11) allows the hot water exit besides the steam exit. The hot water button has to be used at short intervals of a few seconds to
avoid the generator to be discharged quickly.
Attention!!
Using the switch (11) you will get hot water under pressure which, according to the model of the machine,
can reach a temperature of 170°c; please pay attention that the switch has not to be pressed accidentally
and that the jet has not to be directed toward people or animals.
To use the combined cleaning, steam and hot water injection, choose the most suitable tools as follow:
Insert the brush into the hose or into the extensions tubes and fix them by moving the block buttons (16) on the “block” position. Remind
that the switches on the hose (10-11-11a-11b) have to be turned off during the fixing process.
Steam Lance (20) : to be used singularly or together with the supplied brushes or with the steam plunger (26) and the steam scraper
(27), according to the type of usage needed.
To use this tools, please follow the above instructions for the brush mounting.
The Kit July brushes can be covered by a tissue hold by its appropriate fixing tools ( 17A). The usage of the tissue is normally required to
clean delicate surfaces (like i.e. parquet) or vertical surfaces ( like i.e. tiles)…In such cases the tissue can catch the dirt better.
PRACTICAL TIPS
STEAM LANCE
Direct the strong steam flow towards cracks, hidden areas, joints, kitchen tops, carpets, carpeted floors, armchairs, sofas, tapestries, car
upholstery, car engines etc. You will be able to remove easily and completely grime, grease and dirt in general as well as to achieve a
secure disinfecting and sanitation: after this operation it will be indispensable to pass over with a dry cloth.
IN THE KITCHEN
We suggest the use of the steam lance (20) with a small brush (22-23-24). These brushes help remove the most obstinate dirt from baking
surfaces, suction hoods, frying appliances etc.… It is possible to clean dishwashers by applying steam directly with the lance (20). In case the
incrustation is consistent we suggest the use of the nylon brush (22).
8DUPLEX UK

DUPLEX JSP
IN THE BATHROOM
For all areas difficult to reach, we suggest applying to the steam hose hand grip (9) the steam lance (20) and a small brush (22). This accessory
allows cleaning radiator crevices and all difficult points. In case of washbasin clogging, attach the steam plunger (26) to the steam lance (20)
and direct the steam into the drain.
WARNING
BY USING THE SMALL BRUSHES ON PORCELAIN EXERT THE LEAST POSSIBLE PRESSURE BECAUSE
YOU MIGHT SCRATCH THE SURFACE.
WINDOW CLEANER (On glass or plastic surfaces)
We suggest using the window cleaner (19) by inserting it directly on the steam hose handgrip (9) and applying steam several times on the
surface. Then use the squeegee blade provided on the window cleaner to remove the dirt and water using vertical movements bringing the
dirty water to the base of the surface. Use a dry cloth to dry the base of the surface.
TRIANGULAR BRUSH
Adapted for the cleaning of armchairs, sofas, and mattresses we suggest to use the triangular brush with a cloth fastened with the special
clamp.
RECTANGULAR BRUSH (For tiled floors)
To carry out specific grout cleaning we suggest that you use the steam lance (20) with a small brush (22 or 23 according to the need). This
way it will be possible to dislodge the most difficult dirt and remove it from the grouts using the applied pressure. To remove the dirt from
the floor use the rectangular brush (17) wrapped in a cloth, which will work as an “extractor” when fastened with the special clamps. We
suggest applying steam also while picking up the dirty water. To get a good result, work with surface areas not larger than 5 m2at one time
thus preventing dirt from drying and adhering on the floor again. We suggest that you use the brush (17) without the cloth when the dirt to
be dislodged is considerable; and when the dirt is not considerable, it is enough to work with the brush (17) wrapped in a cloth.
When confronted with solid objects while cleaning the floor (i.e. chewing-gum) use the special scraper (27) which can be attached to the
steam lance (20) and is able to remove stubborn objects without scratching the work surface.
To remove wax from the floor use a cloth fastened to the rectangular brush (17). The steam helps loosen the wax so that its removal will be
easier. To spread the wax on the floor use as mentioned above with a clean cloth fastened on the brush. Put the wax on the cloth, the heat
of the steam will help spread the wax evenly so that its penetration will be easier in also this case. When the wax is dry proceed with normal
buffing methods. Only the power of steam is able to replace all types of chemical product.

WARNING
THE GENERATOR PRODUCES STEAM WITH A TEMPERATURE OVER 100°C. BEFORE STARTING THE
CLEANING TASK WE SUGGEST TO TRY ON A SMALL AREA TO AVOID DAMAGES.
ON MARBLE AND PARQUET FLOORS
We suggest adding a cotton cloth (32) wrapped on the brush (17) to avoid scratching the surface. To continue the cleaning it is necessary
to change the cloth according to the quantity of dirt to be collected on the floor.
WARNING
THE STEAM SHOULD NOT BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE FLOOR FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIME! SUCH SURFACES MAY BE DAMAGED IN CASE OF COMBINED USE OF EXCESSIVE HEAT,
HUMIDITY AND BRISTLES. THEREFORE CARRY OUT THE TASK IN THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE TIME.
ON CARPETED FLOORS
Before carrying out the cleaning task we suggest that you clean the carpeted area with a vacuum cleaner. Then use the rectangular (17) or
triangular brush (18) with a cloth. Also in this case, do not forget that the cloth works as an "extractor". Therefore it should be replaced if the
quantity of dirt is considerable.
CAR INTERIORS
To clean car interiors (upholstery, carpets and seats) follow the cleaning instructions as for the carpeted floors. To clean a dashboard it is
enough to steam the surface and wipe off with a dry cloth.
Steam Iron
Mod. Tulipano:
To iron with steam the iron thermostat (30A) should be positioned on “Lana” (wool) or between the symbol “••” (wool) and the symbol “•••”
cotton. Wait few minutes so as to allow the iron to reach its ideal temperature. The steam flow from the iron is obtained by activating at short
intervals the red switch located on the handgrip of the iron.
For dry ironing do not press the red botton (30B). In this case position the thermostat according to the type of cloth being ironed.
Mod. Dublo:
To iron with steam the iron thermostat (30A) should be positioned on “Lana” (wool) or between the symbol “••” (wool) and the symbol “•••”
cotton. Wait few minutes so as to allow the iron to reach its ideal temperature and once ready, the signal on the iron will switch on. The red
button on the hose (30B) can be now pressed to allow the steam exit.
For dry ironing do not press the red button (30B). In this case position the thermostat according to the type of cloth being ironed.
To remove the shine from clothes, brighten up wool tissue, curtains etc…. use the iron vertically, directing the steam flow onto the object.
