PREPARATION and START TO USE
Open the cap (3) and fill the tank with tap water.
-Note: If the water available should be
"very hard"(>20°F), It is recommended the use of 50%
demineralized water or distilled water, (this to avoid
excessive limestone formations and to be sufficiently
conductive)
ATTENTION: Do not add detergents, anti-limestone
solutions or essential oils in the water tank boiler, these
can cause irreparable damage to the boiler and circuits.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage
caused by improper use.
Connect the plug to a socket on an electrical
interconnection conformed to the rules of the country,
equipped with a switch and an earth terminal efficient.
START TO USE:
Turn the main switch on (1).
The display (2) will turn on and indicate the
temperature-pressure status of the machine, when the
machine is ready, it will visualize “170”. (usually the
machine needs around 2÷3 minutes to be ready.)
The machine starts heating.
Choose the most suitable accessory for the needed
use and connected it to the multifunction handle, by
means of the extension tubes, then insert the hose
connector as shown by the white arrow in the picture.
When the machine is ready, to release steam through
the handle of the flexible, press the lever button (6).
Now use the brush or accessory in the surfaces to be
cleaned.
Attention: it is recommended to perform the first
release of steam after the heating on a container for
about a minute, this is to collect any condensate water
generated in the initially cold ducts.
Attention: if you are working on delicate
surfaces or things, keep the steam jet at an
adequate distance of at least 20-40cm.
STEAM RELEASE REGULATION:
Through the regulation knob (4) placed
frontally on the machine, you can gradually adjust the
release of the steam.
END OF WATER: The acoustic and the visual
indicator of the display (2), indicates when there is no
more water inside the tank by showing "H2O", this is
why the machine will stop the steam release.
WATER SUPPLY:
Proceed as decribed:
Open the cap (3) and refill the tank with water (see
note PREPARATION).
Close the cap.
Push the lever button (6) of the hose handle to re-start
working. (you can hear the pump starting to work)
please wait a few seconds and then re-start your
cleaning operation with steam.

FLEXIBLE HOSE AND HANDLE
To release steam
just keep pushed
the button placed in
the handle, the
product is designed
to ensure maximum
practicality.
EXTENSION TUBES
The extension tubes can
be used in pairs or
individually, depending on
the desired distance and
they should be used with
floor brush, triangular
brush or other specific
accessories.
WINDOW SQUEEGEE
This accessory
can be applied
directly to the
flexible.
It is ideal for
cleaning glass,
tiles, windows and
other flat surfaces.
With the lower
rubber brush you can clean and with the top you can
remove the film of water.
WARNING! When cleaning cold glass (in winter),
apply the steam from a distance of at least 50 cm.
RECTANGULAR BRUSH
This accessory must
be connected to the
hose or the extension
tube, after having
plugged it to the
JOINT.
This brush is ideal
for large surfaces
and floors. With two
bristle row, this brush is indicated for the treatment of
hard surfaces: Marble - Ceramics - Cotto.
The brush has on the top of two pliers for cloth, it can
be used with or without cloth.
The cloth offers a great power of absorption and
cleaning, and it is designed to mitigate the power of
steam released during the treatment of very delicate
surfaces such as wood - Laminate - Parquet - treated
Cotto.
TRIANGULAR BRUSH
STEAM LANCE
This accessory can be
applied directly to the
flexible.
Suitable for having a
powerful jet of steam
conveyed the nozzle
exit. Pay attention
when cleaning delicate
surfaces, start the
steam release
maintaining a minimum distance of 20-40cm and
then bring it closer depending on the desired result
and the treated surface.
JOINT
This accessory is necessary to use the
two brushes, RECTANGULAR and
TRIANGULAR.
Use this joint with the desired brush by
inserting it into its seat, making sure that
to hook it must be rotated of 90° with
respect to the working or vertical
position.
BRUSHES
These brushes are
to use with the
accessory STEAM
LANCE. They are
used to remove
resistant dirt and for
deep cleaning, even
in the corners or
small spaces. Choose the nylon or brass type
according to the surface to be treated.
This accessory must be
connected to the hose or
the extension tube, after
having plugged it to the
JOINT.
Used for cleaning corners
and clothes.
Ideal also for cleaning
mattresses, sofas, chairs,
car seats,other products

MANTAINANCE
*Always remove the plug before
cleaning or carrying out operations
on the machine.
For the safety of the operator and to ensure an always
perfect performance, we recommend the following
checks and maintenance:
AFTER EVERY USE:
For a correct cleaning, it is advice to clean the machine
and its accessories with a clean cloth moistened only
with a few drops of water. Do not use alcohol or other
solvents, they may damage the plastics and
components.
To maintain efficient and easy to couple the
accessories, check the o-ring seal (steam sealing
gaskets) and possibly wet them with a little silicone
grease.
PERIODICALLY:
Periodically check that the power cord does not show
signs of wear or aging. If it is damaged, it is absolutely
necessary to get it replaced by specialized personnel
before being able to re-use the appliance again.
BOILER CLEANING
Clean the boiler in our authorized centers once a year.
RINSE: It’s recommended at least every 50 hours of
operation or 4 months.
a) DISCHARGE: The machine must be cold or definitely
discharged from the steam pressure and the plug
disconnected. Open it by pulling the rubber cap placed
under the machine in correspondence of the boiler (see
image below) and with an allen wrench 6mm open the
drain plug, shake slightly the machine to let the water
and the completely dissolved limestone out.
When the boiler is empty, clean and close carefully the
cap tightening it with the wrench.
b) FILLING: Fill the water tank (3), turn the machine on
and make it start again, waiting for the boiler to be re-
charged again.
(att: Att: it may be that during the first charge cycle, the
“end of water” light turns on and you need to shut
down/restart the machine to complete the load)
BOILER CLEANING:
The boiler cleaning is recommended at least every
100 hours of operation or 8 months.
After having necessarily made the boiler exhaust (see
paragraph RINSE in step a), ensure that the water
level in the plastic refill tank (3) is at least up to the
middle. Shake the machine well and then turn it
upside down to discharge any residual deposits in the
tank.
Dissolve in 1 liter of water about 15% of citric acid (if
in powder or granules, 150g of citric acid dissolved for
each liter of water).
(Alternatively it is possible to use 0,3 liter of water with
0,7 liter vinegar).
Insert the prepared liquid in the refill tank of the
machine. (3).
Connect the power plug, turn on the main switch.
Wait for the pump to finish filling the boiler. (Att: it may
be that during the first charge cycle, the “end of water”
light turns on and you need to shut down/restart the
machine to complete the load).
When fully charged, turn off the main switch, unplug
the power plug and let the machine to rest for 6-7
hours.
(Att: do not let inside the solution over the indicated
time period to avoid damaging the steel of the boiler)
With the machine cold, shake it well and then open
the drain plug, now empty well all the limestone
dissolved in the solution, rinse it again entering from
the drain hole a couple of glasses of clean water.
Now clean and close the drain plug carefully.
* Fill the charging tank (see Preface) with clean water
and turn on the machine. Wait for it to charge and
heat.
Now, for about 10 minutes the steam supply will smell
of lemon given by the washing performed.
When the boiler cleaning is finished, restart the
machine, following the instructions in “Start to use”.
►* after the cleaning operations of the boiler, it is
advisable to check if the caps under the machine leak,
in this case check their closure with a wrench or
replace the seal after the machine cools down.
