IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VAPOR SYSTEM
When using this cleaning system always use basic precautions, including but not limited to the following:
Warning -- To reduce the risk of Machine Damage, fire, electrical shock or injury:
1) Do not leave the appliance plugged in when un attended. Unplug the Vapor Rino from the outlet when not in use, or before
servicing.
2) Turn your machine OFF when you are not planning on using for more than 20 minutes. This will reduce wear and tear and extend the
life of your system. Though it is tempting to leave the unit running all the time it is not recommended. Example: Most people would
never turn on a carpet extractor, shop vac or another power tool and leave it running 8 hours a day while not in use. Just because
your vapor system makes very little sound does not mean it is not taking wear by being left on continuously. The boiler generates
internal heat of well over 356 degrees F. To extend the life of your system consider turning it off when not in regular use.
3) Do not allow the Vapor Rino cleaning System to be used as a toy! Close attention is necessary when the system is in use around
children. NEVER Allow children to use, operate, handle or play with this machine.
4) Use only as described in the manual. Only use original manufacturer attachments.
5) Do not use the Vapor Cleaning System with a damaged cord or plug. If the vapor system has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors,
or submersed in water, arrange to have the system serviced.
6) DO NOT PULL or carry the vapor system by the power cord.
7) DO NOT DRAG the vapor system by the steam hose. This WILL Cause damage.
8) Be careful not to step on or stretch the steam hose or power cord. Never close a door on the cord or hose.
9) ALWAYS Turn the unit OFF before unplugging. Do not unplug by pulling on the power cord
10) ALWAYS, after using detergents clean your injection system. Just run fresh water through the injection system before putting the
unit away for the day. This will avoid having your injection pump becoming sticky and or clogged thus avoiding the need for service.
Always flush this injection system with pure clean water. Warm water works the best for dissolving soapy residue from the pump.
Run for at least 30 seconds+ until no soap is detected using clean fresh water. We provide you with an extra chem jug for this.
11) Do not allow objects to get into/block the output nozzle. Do not try to operate the vapor system with any of the openings blocked.
Keep openings free of anything that may reduce steam flow
12) Keep all body parts of humans and animals away from nozzles and moving parts of the system.
13) Use extra care when using the vapor system on stairs or an incline.
14) Use extra care when cleaning around a water source (swimming pools, spas, toilets, ect.)
15) NEVER use the cleaning system to clean animals or other living creatures.
16) Do not fill the vapor systems boiler refill tank with anything but pure, clean water
17) NEVER use this system outdoors IF it is raining, snowing or there is any precipitation or threat of precipitation. Keep it dry.
18) NEVER EVER Use any flammable or combustible liquids or materials in, on or with this machine!!!
19) Connect to a PROPERLY GROUNDED Outlet ONLY. See grounding instructions.
20) If not in use for more than 1-2 weeks or more you should empty your boiler. Simply loosen the drain nut on the bottom of the
machine and allow the water to drain out. This may reduce the need to have the systems serviced in the long term.
21) Follow the regular cleaning and maintenance recommendations in this manual to maintain the health of your system.

Grounding Instructions
WARNING: Your Vapor System MUST BE PLUGGED INTO
A GROUNDED OUTLET (As shown!) or electrical shock or
damage to the unit may occur. Check with a qualified
electrician if you do not know if your outlet is grounded.
Do NOT Modify the plug provided with your Vapor
System. if it will not fit the outlet, then do not use the
system. If it does not fit, you are trying to use the wrong
outlet type.
EXTENSION CORDS: In the likely event that an extension
cord is used with this system, use 10 gauge, 3 wire,
grounded extension cord w/ SJ quality plug type. Always
use a heavy-duty extension cord with three prongs. Use of
a light duty plug will cause damage to the internal circuit
board. 12 gauge wire may be used in lengths under 25
feet. 10 gauge (10 ga is the thickest available) is highly
recommended and can be used in lengths in excess of 50’.
THIS UNIT MUST BE GROUNDED
If the unit should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance of electrical Current to
reduce the risk of electrical shock. The unit is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding conductor and
grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet (like in the picture above) that is properly
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING –Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
Shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt. Check whether the outlet is
Properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provide of the steamer –if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper grounded outlet installed, plug into a different outlet or have one installed by a qualified electrician.
This units is designed for use with a normal 110/120 volt circuit running at either 15 or 20 amps, and that has a
grounded outlet that looks much like the one illustrated above. If for some reason you do not have a 3-prong outlet
you can have a qualified electrician install one for you or run 10-gauge extension cord from a location that does.
