Instr ctions for Use
•Make sure the machine is unplugged from
the electrical outlet.
•Unscrew the safety cap (1) by turning
counterclockwise.
Please note the cap cannot be un
screwed when the unit is pressurized.
•Using the measuring jug and funnel (6) fill
the machine with up to 50 fl.oz (1500ml)
of water. This should be sufficient to
steam clean for approximately 5
minutes.
•Once full, replace the safety cap by
turning clockwise and fasten tightly.
•Attach the accessory or floor cleaning
tool you require to the machine. (See
page )
•Now plug the machine into the electrical
outlet and switch on. Two lights should
illuminate. The red light (3) is a power
indicator. The orange light ( ) indicates
that the machine is building steam
pressure. When the machine is first
turned on this light will illuminate. The
machine takes up to 12 minutes to reach
the correct pressure level depending on
the amount of water in the tank.
•Once the orange light has gone out the
machine is ready to use. The orange light
may come back on when the machine 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 0 seconds. If the safety
trigger is pressed when the orange light is
on, hot water may come out of the
machine.
Refilling the water tank
•Switch the machine off using the on/off
button (2).
•Disconnect the power cable from the
electrical outlet. Wait 5 minutes before
squeezing the safety trigger to make sure
the machine is no longer under pressure
before unscrewing the safety cap. DO NOT
unscrew the safety cap until the steam has
stopped.
•Fill the water tank as necessary using the
funnel provided. DO NOT exceed 50 fl.oz
(1500ml) of water before replacing the
safety cap by turning clockwise. Fasten
cap tightly.
•You are now ready to switch the machine
on and resume steam cleaning.
