This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). As a safety feature,
this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not
attempt to defeat this safety feature.

NOT immerse the steam mop into water or any
other liquids.

surfaces. Do not use on walls, counters or
windows.
15. DO NOT use on leather, wax polished furniture
or floors, synthetic fabrics, velvet or other
delicate, steam sensitive materials.
16. DO NOT add cleaning solutions, scented
perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to the
water used in this appliance as this may damage
the unit or make it unsafe for use. If you live in a
hard water area, we recommend using distilled
water in your steam mop.
17. When in use, NEVER turn the appliance over
or on its side. NEVER DIRECT STEAM
TOWARDS PEOPLE, ANIMALS OR
PLANTS.
18. NEVER LEAVE THE STEAM MOP IN
ONE SPOT ON ANY SURFACE FOR ANY
PERIOD OF TIME WHEN THE CLEANING
PAD IS ATTACHED AS THIS WILL
DAMAGE YOUR FLOORS.
19. Carefully remove the cleaning pad immediately
after you have unplugged and allowed the steam
mop to cool.
20. When cleaning the steam mop, unplug the
power cord from the electrical outlet and clean
with a dry or damp cloth. Do not pour water
or use alcohol, benzene or paint thinner on the
unit.
21. Extreme caution should be exercised when
using this appliance to clean stairs.
22. Never use steam mop without the cleaning
pad attached.
23. Keep your work area well lit.
24. Store steam mop indoors in a cool, dry
place.
25. To avoid circuit overload, do not operate
another appliance on the same socket
(circuit) as the steam cleaner.
26. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,
an extension cord rated a minimum
of 15 ampere, 14 gage cord should be
used. Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Care should be taken to arrange
cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped
over.
27 Always unplug and allow the steam mop
to cool before removing or changing mop
heads.
WARNING: Your steam mop is
designed to clean hard floor surfaces that
will withstand high heat. Do not use on
unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors.
On surfaces that have been treated with
wax or some no wax floors, the sheen
may be removed by the heat and steam
action. It is always recommended to test an
isolated area of the surface to be cleaned
before proceeding. We also recommend
that you check the use and care instructions
from the floor manufacturer.

sure you only add water to the tank. Chemicals
or cleaning solution may damage the appliance
and could be unsafe for you and your family.
