QUICK START GUIDE
DO NOT PLUG IN STEAM CLEANER UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO
1. CONNECT HOSE TO STEAM CLEANER: Locate the 12 ft. flexible steam hose. Lift the hinged hose
socket cover on the front of the steam cleaner and insert the square end of the Steam Hose into the
hose socket until you hear a click.
Hose Socket Cover
2. OPEN SAFETY CAP AND FILL TANK WITH WATER: Press and turn the safety cap counter
clockwise to open. Remove the cap. Use the water bottle provided using distilled water. Distilled will
provide longer life to the unit, higher steam capacity, and reduce maintenance requirements.
Pour in the water from the filler bottle leaving about 1 inch of water in the bottle to prevent overflow in
the tank. Do not overfill the tank to the rim of the opening. Do NOT put cleaning fluids into the
machine.
Safety Cap
3. REPLACE THE SAFETY CAP AND TIGHTEN: Turn the cap clockwise to close. Keep pressing and
turning the cap until it is tight. Note: This cap does not sit flush on the machine once fully
tightened.
4. PLUG IN THE STEAM CLEANER: Plug the power cord into a grounded 110V outlet. The steam
cleaner should be the only appliance plugged into an outlet. Use only a 15AMP extension cord. If you
use an extension cord, the heating will take longer and steam pressure may be less than optimum.
5. POWER ON THE STEAM CLEANER: Depress the POWER button once to heat the water in the
boiler. This is the ON Position. (The orange light on button should illuminate). After 15 minutes, the
Steam Ready light will illuminate when ready to use. Pressure Gauge must read 3.5 to 4.5 bar before
use.

6. PRESS THE STEAM RELEASE BUTTON (to release the steam from the boiler to the hose). The
orange light on button should illuminate but no steam will come out yet.
Steam Release Button
7. BLEED THE SYSTEM BEFORE USING:Bleed the hose of water by turning on low-pressure steam to
shoot excess water from the hose into a towel for about 10 seconds. Wait until pressure gauge
reaches 3.5 to 4.5 or the steam ready green light comes on again before starting to clean. Now the
system is ready to use.
8. MONITOR PRESSURE WHILE STEAM CLEANING: Monitor the pressure gauge. If pressure drops
below 2.5, release trigger, let pressure rebuild. Pressure gauge should read 3.5 to 4.5 before restarting.
If pressure does not rebuild, check orange low water light next to the faucet icon.
9. SELECT AND ATTACH TOOL TO HOSE: Securely attach whichever tool and towel (if needed) to
accomplish the task at hand, by using your TOOL/APPLICATION GUIDE.
10. HIGH PRESSURE WATER BURST: The US2100 is a water burst feature capable of shooting high
pressure water from the handle.

How Do I Refill the Steam Cleaner?
When one of the following happens, your steam cleaner is low on water:
1. The Low Water Indicator Light turns on (orange).
2. The pressure drops fast (below 2 bars) and pressure gauge stays low.
3. Amount of steam is very light and moisture content is low.
Low water indicator light Pressure Gauge Pressure Dial
THE DIAL ON THE PRESSURE GAUGE MUST READ ZERO BEFORE
REMOVING THE SAFETY CAP. REMOVING THE SAFETY CAP UNDER
PRESSURE CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.
1. Turn the power button to the OFF position. The Steam Release Button must remain in the
ON position. The orange light will light up. (This is important because the unit will must cool
sufficiently to refill.)
2. Run the steamer on the high setting until pressure gauge reads ”0” (zero).
Push Turn Power to Off Leave “Steam Release” in the “On” Position
Both Buttons Forward
3. Unplug the steam cleaner.
4. WARNING - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADD WATER WHILE THE BOILER TANK IS STILL
HOT. LET THE STEAM BOILER COOL AT LEAST 20 MINUTES BEFORE ADDING WATER.
5. Cover the safety cap with a towel, press down on cap and turn cap very slowly counter-
clockwise. You may hear some steam escaping. Keep the towel over the cap. Remove the
safety cap. Refill the steam cleaner tank with clean water using the water bottle.
6. Replace safety cap and hand tighten the cap clockwise. Plug the steam cleaner in and press
the On/Off button ON (the orange light on the button should illuminate).

Cleaning and Accessory Maintenance
Tank Cleaning (remove mineral deposits) – Do once a month
1. When the steam cleaner tank is cold and unplugged, use a13MM wrench and remove the
drain plug allowing water to drain from the system.
2. Remove the safety cap by pressing down on the cap and turning it slowly counter-clockwise.
3. Take 1 cup of vinegar and 3 cups of water together. Add this mixture to the steam cleaner tank.
Let mixture sit for 2 to 3 minutes, fill tank with clean water turn machine upside down over sink
and drain. Refill with clean water and rinse until all mineral deposits are rinsed out.
Drain Plug
VERY IMPORTANT – NEVER ADD CHEMICALS INTO THE TANK! Adding any form of chemicals or
fragrance to the tank will void the warranty and could result in malfunction or damage to the system.
For most jobs, you do NOT need to use cleaners. However, for cleaning surfaces that may have an oil base
mixed with dirt, we recommend heat activated Vapormate (Available at www.homedepot.com or
www.ussteam.net) cleaning agent, which is 100% all natural, and formulated for EXTERNAL use with the
steam cleaner.
Accessory Cleaning – Do after each time used
Always wash accessory brushes with warm, mild soapy water after each use. Get in the good habit of
cleaning brushes before the dirt dries on them. All accessories can also be cleaned in the dishwasher,
except for the flexible hose. Accessories can be sanitized by steaming them with the steam hose and the 1-
hole nozzle.
Water Conditioning
It is recommended to supply the steam cleaner with clean low mineral content water (distilled water) to help
prevent scale build-up. Even though the US Steam System is engineered to minimize scale formation, scale
development depends on the hardness of your water and the number of hours the equipment operates.
Most tap water sources are full of minerals, which form scale during operation leading to component failure.
Your water utility can tell you about the mineral content of your water. For optimal performance and
component longevity, water should have between 10 and 30 parts per million (PPM) total dissolved solids
(TDS) and should have a pH (acidity rating) of 7.0 or higher.
Using distilled water, especially in areas with hard tap water, will provide longer life to the unit,
higher steam capacity, and reduce maintenance requirements.
If you notice a reduction in steam production, check the unit for scale build-up. Heavy scale reduces the
unit’s ability to boil water, and may cause the boiler to overheat and burn out. (See “Maintenance” section
for information about removing mineral deposit build up.)

Work Techniques
The temperature of the steam at the tip of the nozzle is between 312ºF - 285ºF, since
the vapor is dry, it cools to 245ºF 4” from the tip less than 185ºF 8” inches from the
tip. Most bacteria begins to die when exposed to temperatures of 245ºF so keeping
the tip of the handle close to the work area is key to successful cleaning.
Using a bonnet clipped to the large rectangular or triangular brush allows heat to be spread evenly on the
work area. Work from the top down on any area so dirt will not fall on cleaned surfaces.
First, start with cleaning corners and other tight areas with the nozzle and small brushes, working your way
up to larger surfaces and brushes. Use this method to regulate the temperature you apply to surfaces
where heat is a concern, like paint, wood, plastic, etc.
PRE-STEAM
Get into the habit of pre-steaming a surface if it is heavily soiled. At a
5-inch distance, spray steam on surface from all directions for 10 seconds.
PRE-TREAT
Use heat activated Vapormate® to pre-treat surface areas before
steaming.
SPEED
Let the heat do the work for you! Do not move too quickly, unless surface
is sensitive to heat like wood, paint, wallpaper, colored fabrics or plastic.
WIPE
Always remember to wipe the area you just cleaned with a cotton towel or
use one of the larger brushes with a bonnet attached to the brush using the
brush clips.
All surfaces have pores. Steam cleaners use the steam vapor to open and
deep clean into the surface pores. Wipe off dirt immediately before the
surface cools down.
OTHER EQUIPMENT
The only other equipment you need is a good HEPA vacuum cleaner.
Always vacuum carpets and floors before steam cleaning.

13
Floors
Floors – Pre-vacuum or sweep up large dirt and dust particles. Use the large brush (Item 1) with
clipped on bonnet at low/medium steam volume. If you use the extension wands, insert one wand into
the other making sure the lengthwise lines on them are all lined up with each other on each piece. Keep
a bucket available for dirty bonnets and towels.
a. Tile – Use a large brush (Item 1) or large triangle brush (Item 2) at low or medium steam setting.
Always use a clean bonnet and towel so they are absorbing the dirt and pushing it around. If floor is
very dirty, use the brush without attached bonnet, and mop dirt immediately as you go with a spare
cotton towel. Pre-treat stains or especially dirty areas with heat activated Vapormate®.
b. Vinyl or Wood –Use the large brush (Item 1) with a bonnet at low steam volume. Use extension
wands as needed. If the floor is especially dirty, pre-treat area lightly with cleaner such as Murphy’s
Oil Soap or Vapormate®.
NOTE: WHEN STEAMING A WOOD FLOOR, NEVER LET BRUSH STAND IN ONE PLACE
WHILE STEAM TRIGGER IS ON. ALWAYS KEEP BRUSH MOVING. GO OVER AREA TWO
OR THREE TIMES AS NEEDED AND ALWAYS USE A CLEAN BONNET AND TOWEL.
c. Waxed Vinyl Floors - Use large floor brush (Item 1) and if necessary, use the 3-inch round
brush (Item 5) in corners and tight areas. Clip a clean bonnet over the large floor brush. Apply
steam, cleaning a small area quickly as you go. This should melt a top layer of wax holding the dirt
in the pores of the floor. If the floor is greasy or very dirty, you may need to repeat this procedure. It
may be necessary to reapply floor sealer when finished.
d. Unwaxed Vinyl Floors - Use the large brush (Item 1) with a bonnet and low steam. Pull-trigger
every 3 to 5 seconds to keep bonnet heated. Use a back and forth motion.
NOTE: DO NOT OVERHEAT ANY KIND OF VINYL, SINCE THIS COULD SOFTEN THE
SURFACE AND AFFECT THE TEXTURE. THIS ALSO APPLIES WHEN USING SMALL
BRUSHES TO REMOVE TOUGH SPOTS.
e. Wood Parquet Floors - Use large brush (Item 1) with a bonnet at low steam. Squeeze trigger
every 3 to 5 seconds and move quickly to avoid heat or moisture buildup in wood. Use heat
activated Vapormate® for dirty floors.
f. Marble Floors - Use the same techniques as used for wood floors, keeping heat and moisture off
the surface as much as possible. Always use Marble conditioner after cleaning. NOTE: SOME
MARBLE SURFACES CAN DISCOLOR.
CARPETS
We do not recommend this steam cleaner for cleaning large carpeted areas but rather for spot cleaning.
Man made carpet fibers melt at temperatures 300ºF and above. The heat from the vapor system
does not melt the fibers, but it can change their shape or color at temperatures 185ºF-250ºF.
Use large brush (Item 1) on medium steam setting, 2 inches above carpet, and pre-steam a 6x6 foot
area. The steam will cause the dirt and soil particles to loosen their grip on the carpet fibers and opens
up the fibers. Then use the large brush (Item 1) with a bonnet on medium steam pressure and go over
pre-steamed area with same movements as when you vacuum. Change towels when dirty. Repeat
these steps if necessary. Move on to next area.

Tips for Treating Carpet Stains
a. Protein Stain: Dab with towel dampened with a solution of 1 teaspoon white vinegar and 1 quart of
cold water.
b. Food Dye Stain: Wet stain with a solution of water and lemon juice or white vinegar.
c. Water Stain: First wet the stain with carbonated water, and then use triangular brush with towel.
d. Reoccurring Stain: If a stain comes up again and again, it has a “reservoir” under the padding.
Before removing the stain you have to dry it out first. Presses a drying agent such as talcum
powder, a mixture of cornstarch and cornmeal, or clean unscented, uncolored cat litter into the fibers
do not rub. Let sit for 20 minutes, and then vacuum it out.
e. Surface Stain: If the stain is only on the surface of the carpet, it can be removed by shooting the
steam against the spot from the side, 1-2 inches above surface. Hold a towel on the other side to
catch the residue. This prevents driving the particles deeper into the fibers.
f. Gum: Same technique as SURFACE STAIN, except use paper towel instead of cotton towel. If the
gum melts too much, let it cool off before trying again. Once major part of gum is removed mist with
a non-toxic cleaning formula and re-clean
Kitchen
Sink – Use the 3-inch nylon round brush (Item 5) or small triangular brush (Item 4) with the 3-hole
nozzle (Item 6) and low or medium steam. Use separate towel to mop up loosened dirt. For tough
stains, you can pre-spray surface with heat activated Vapormate®.
Stovetop – Make sure stovetop and burners are cool to the touch. Use the 3-inch round brush or small
triangular brush (Item 4) with the 3-hole nozzle at low or medium steam. Attach to the hose handle. Use
separate towel to mop up loosened dirt. Can use the 1-inch round brush attached to the 1-hole nozzle
for cleaning burners.
Oven Interior – Make sure oven is cool to the touch. Use the1-inch brass round brush (Item 9) with the
1-hole nozzle. Use separate towel to wipe up loosened dirt. Pre-treat with heat activated Vapormate®.
DO NOT SCRUB SURFACE. THIS MAY DAMAGE THE ENAMEL.
