oor BEFORE using steam to ensure that your linoleum oor does not have this issue.

Before Use

Before Use
*IMPORTANT*
• Do not overll the Boiler as excess water will be ushed out of the Boiler
before dry steam will emit.
• If re-lling the Boiler while Steamer has been in use, be sure to allow Steamer
to cool for at least 5 minutes and loosen Boiler Cap slowly to allow any
excess steam to escape before completely removing Cap. (See page 10,
“Relling Boiler During Use” for detailed instructions.)
D. Filling Boiler with Water
WARNINGS:
• Carefully read all instructions before removing Boiler Cap.
• Always unplug appliance before lling the Boiler.
Follow these instructions to avoid overlling the Boiler:
• Be sure appliance is unplugged from the electri-
cal power outlet, and has
cooled for at least
5 minutes before lling with water.
• Make sure Handle Assembly is in the upright “off”
position. Remove Boiler Cap by turning it counter-
clockwise.
• Pour in 600 mls of water using the
Measuring Cup and Filler Funnel provi-
ded – ll cup to the “200 ml” marking
three times.
Be careful not to overll the
Boiler. Please note that excess water will be
ushed out during use if the Boiler is overl-
led, resulting in wet oors.
• Replace Boiler Cap by turning it clockwise. Do not tighten Boiler Cap
too much – nger tightening is sufcient to lock the steam in the Boiler.
If using cold water, heating time is about 3-5 minutes. If using warm
water, heating time is reduced.
*IMPORTANT*
Use ordinary tap water. Distilled or demineralized water is recommended if tap
water is too hard. DO NOT add detergents, perfumes, oils, or other chemical
substances to the Boiler. The product warranty will be null and void if anything
other than water is added to the Boiler.

B. Starting the Appliance
• Be sure Boiler is lled with water and Boiler
Cap is securely in place.
• Insert the plug into a-3 prong grounded
electrical outlet (orange Power Indicator
Light will illuminate).
•
Keeping the handle in the upright “Off”
position
, wait until the (green) Steam Ready
Indicator Light illuminates.
Once Boiler is lled and the green Steam
Ready Indicator Light glows, Steamer is ready to clean.
A. Using the Parking Pad
You can use the Parking Pad if the Steamer is warm or hot.
CAUTION
The Parking Pad is provided to prevent
oor damage that can result from leaving
a hot steamer resting on the same spot
for too long. ALWAYS place Floor Steamer
on the Parking Pad when not in use, or
while it is cooling before storage.
PARKING PAD
C. Using Steam
• To emit steam from the
underside of the Steamer,
simply pull the Handle
downwards.
• Return Handle to upright
position to stop steam.
You will nd that your Floor
Steamer can easily clean
most hard surfaces and
oors using the steam from
the underside alone.
NOTE: Some water may be emitted
when the handle is rst pulled
down after lling. This is normal.
PLEASE NOTE: The green Steam Ready Indicator Light may turn
on and off during use. This is normal and not a fault.

Using Your Floor Steamer
Using Your Floor Steamer
• To emit steam from the Steam
Nozzles, pull the trigger on
the Handle upward.
*IMPORTANT*
The Steam Nozzles are meant
to be used in steam “bursts”
and should never be used on
a sustained basis. The Steam
Nozzles will loosen especially
difcult debris and will assist in
cleaning hard to reach areas
such as oor edges.
NOTE: Your Steamer will not need
relling for about 20-25 minutes
of usage.
The Floor Steamer will stop producing steam when the Boiler is
empty. When this happens unplug and store unit or rell with water
per instructions (below).
NOTE: If the Floor or Carpet Pad becomes too wet or too dirty, replace with a
clean, dry Pad and continue cleaning.
C. Using Steam (continued)
D. Relling Boiler During Use
When the Floor Steamer has run out of water, there will be no more
steam coming out of the unit. At this stage it is time to rell the Boiler.
Follow the relling instructions below.
*IMPORTANT*
The Floor Steamer has a Boiler that should not be overlled. To avoid the
potential for overlling, only rell the Boiler when it is completely run out of
water and only add 600ml. Always follow the practice of using the Floor Steamer
until it has run out of water and then rell 600ml only.
If oor cleaning is completed and water remains in the Boiler, the Floor Steamer
can be stored with the remaining water in the Boiler, there will be no harm done
to the unit. At the next cleaning session simply heat up the unit and use the
water already in the Boiler, then rell when empty.
Or alternatively at the next cleaning session, open the Boiler Cap when the unit
is still cold and pour out the water and then rell (if this alternative method is
used, it is recommended that only 500ml of water is added, because the unit
will not completely drain when the water is poured out from the Boiler).
WARNING: Let Steamer cool 5 minutes before opening Boiler Cap.
Use care when opening Boiler Cap as it may still be hot and steam
may escape, causing burns. If Boiler is still hot, water may spurt out
during relling which can also cause burns.

Using Your Floor Steamer Using Your Floor Steamer
Using Your Floor Steamer
• Unplug the appliance from the electrical power outlet. This will stop
the Steamer from continuing to heat up.
• Once unplugged from the power outlet, place Handle in the “On”
position to release any residual steam and pressure from the Boiler.
• After all steam and pressure has been expressed from the Steamer,
return the Handle to the upright “Off” position.
• Slowly turn Boiler Cap counterclockwise. This will allow remaining
steam to escape.
•
Be sure Steamer has cooled 5 minutes before relling with water.
The product warranty will be null and void if
anything other than water is added to the Boiler.
• Pour in 600 mls of water using the Measuring Cup
and Filler Funnel provided – ll the Measuring
Cup to the 200 ml marking 3 times. Be careful
not to overll the Boiler.
• Replace Boiler Cap by turning it clockwise. Do
not tighten Boiler Cap too much – nger tighte-
ning is sufcient to lock the steam in
the Boiler.
• Insert plug into 3-prong electrical outlet. Wait for
green Steam Ready Indicator Light to turn on. Steamer is ready to use
once again.

REMINDERS
• Always use ordinary tap water.
• If tap water is too hard, use distilled or demineralized water to
avoid the risk of mineral deposits and sediment from forming.
• Do not add detergents, perfumes, oils or other chemical
substances to the Boiler. This will damage the Steamer and void the
war ranty.
• The green Steam Ready Indicator Light may turn on and off during
use. This is normal and not a fault.

Maintenance & Cleaning
Maintenance & Cleaning
If distilled or demineralized water is regularly used in the
Steamer, cleaning of the Boiler can be done less frequently. In
some areas tap water is very hard, it is recommended that the
Boiler is cleaned more frequently if hard water is used.
The cleaning of the Boiler and Steamer is the sole responsibility of the
appliance owner. Calcium, mineral deposits and other sediment left
to build up in the Floor Steamer causing the Steamer to fail and/or the
steam pathways in the Steamer to block, is not covered by the product
warranty. Users must follow the cleaning instructions above.
If the Steamer and Boiler are not cleaned according to the
instructions above and the product fails and/or the steam
pathways are blocked, the appliance owner should send the
product for servicing by contacting the Customer Support Line.
The Steamer is intended for domestic household use only. It is
not intended for commercial use. Any use other than for do-
mestic household purposes will void the product warranty.
Cleaning the Floor Steamer
We recommend you periodically clean the Floor Steamer to prevent
the accumulation of calcium, mineral deposits and other sediment
caused by the use of tap water. After every 10-15 rells, ll the Boiler
three-quarters full of hot tap water, shake several times and empty
out the water into sink. Repeat several times to ensure that the Boiler
is ushed of any calcium or mineral deposits. Wipe the Steamer
base with a damp cloth and dry.
NEVER HOLD THE STEAMER UNDER THE TAP TO FILL. Use the
Measuring Cup and Funnel provided to ll the Boiler.
