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 15 to 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 don't do this. Example: Most people would
never turn on a carpet extractor, shop vac or another power tool and leave it running 8 hours a day. 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 300
degrees F. To extend the life of your system please turn it off when not in regular use. Once hot, the unit recovers quickly when turned on.
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 send the system to a service center to be inspected and 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 thesteam hose or power cord. Never closea 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 theinjection system before putting the
unit away for the day. This will avoid having yourinjection pump becoming sticky and or clogged thus avoiding the need for s ervice.
Only use soaps/detergents/chems indoors when proper ventilation is available and/or proper safety breathing apparatus is worn.
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) Wear safety gloves and eye protection. Indoors you may want to wear ear protection as well. Keep all humans and animals body parts away
from nozzles and moving parts of the system.
13) Use extra care when using the vapor system on stairs or anincline.
14) Use extra care when cleaning around a water source (swimming pools, spas, toilets, ect.)
15) NEVER, 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 filtered tap water (Do not use distilled water)
17) NEVER use this system outdoors if it is raining, snowing or there is any precipitation or threat of precipitation.
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 or 2 weeks 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 thelong term. Machine must be COLD and at
ZERO pressure before draining!!! Allow to sit for 12 hours if you are not sure about opening the boiler. Feel bottom before opening.
21) NEVER Open the bottom drain screw if the unit is hot or warm.NEVER open drain if the unit shows pressure on the gauge. Severe
injury or damage may occur. Wear heat resistant safety gloved and when it doubt,allow the unit to cool overnight before draining.
22) Follow the regular cleaning and maintenance recommendations in this manual to maintain the health of your system.

120V 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, than 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, it must be a minimum of 14
gauge, 3 wire, grounded SJ quality plug type. Always use a
heavy duty extension cord with three prongs. Use of a
light duty plug may cause damage to the internal circuit
board.
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 with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper grounded outlet 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 like the one illustrated in sketch. If for some reason you do not have a 3 prong outlet you can
have a qualified electrician install one for you or run an extension cord from a location that does.

Starting Up Your Machine
Before You Start:
Before you use this machine, check to see that the electrical current is the same as the voltage listed on this units identification
plate! Never use a generator with less RUNNING wattage then 4000 Watts for a120V system and 6,000 or more Watts is recommended
for the 230Volt system. Do not plug other equipment in at the same time. IF you use a generator. Never over tax a generator, this will
damage the Vapor Rino electronics!
Steamer Startup:
Place the water jugs into the holding rack and connect thecolor coded plugs.
Fill the water tank (Marked "Water Only") with pure, clean tap water. Fill to the top.
Insert the 3 prong power plug into a 120 volt 3 prong power outlet.
Press the main switch to the on position (#1 on illustration to right). You will see a small
orangelight glow in the switch. You will also hear a beep like tone. AFTER the beep has
stopped, press the second switch (#2 on illustration) to the on position. This switch will
also light up. If you press these buttons out of order the machine will not heat up.
ONLY FOR FIRST STARTUP WITH AN EMPTY BOILER
If the machine low water alarm is activated (redish-orange light #3 is on + audible alarm), turn the
switch #1 & #2 off, leave it off for about 3 seconds and then switch them on again IN PROPER ORDER.
Filling is automatically performed when Required by the water level. If the beeping persists turn off all
the power buttons and begin again. Be sure to check your water connection. During initial filling you
may expect it to beep a few times.
At this point you will hear some buzzing sounds coming from the machine. This is the transfer pump sending water to your empty boiler. It takes
about 7 minutes for a fully empty boiler to fill up. Once that happens the machine will begin heating up.
Now that the boiler is full, the heating process will begin. Take notice of the green lensed light (#4). It will blink. Please note that
the green lens has an orange like bulb under it. This will always be this color and is normal. You may have to look closeif you are
outdoors or in a bright room to see the blinkinglight.
The blinking green lensed light indicates that the heating elements are both on and heating up the water.
For Typical heating time for a 120-V about 15 minutes and for a 230V about 6 minutes to come up to full heat. This does notinclude
the time it takes to fill the boiler during your very first startup of if the boiler has been drained for storage prior to use.
Once maximum pressure is reached, the green lensed light will stop blinking and go soild. This means that the system has reached
its maximum pressure and has turned off the heating elements. When in use the green/orangelight will always blink. Blink=Heating.
There is a natural variation in steam pressures at full charge. Example: If you charge the unit the first time it may stop at 10 bars (145
PSI) or a few percent higher or lower. After you pull the trigger and letsome steam out, then stop you may notice that this timeit
charges a bit higher. Each time there will be a minor variationin final pressure. This is normal.
ATTACH HOSE: Connect your steam hose. Lift the monoblock hatch (#6) and press the hose in
firmly. Press hard and listen for a click. Oncelocked in place you are ready to begin.
Gun Operation: The gun controls must be set right in order to allow steam to come out
Holding the gunin your hand press the plastic covered switch on the left. You want the rocker
switch to have the DOWN side pressed down toward your hand. The other switch needs to be in the
opposite direction.
Point your steam gun in a safe direction and pullthe red trigger. You should now get steam. If
this does not work you may simply have the buttons in reverse order. If you still havea problem
see the troubleshooting section of this manual for simple solutions. You should now be steaming.

Important Care & Maintenance
Low Maintenance: Your Vapor Rino is made using quality materials and as such requires relatively little maintenance, however
proper maintenance and use is critical for reducing the potential for machine down time and service.
All machines, no matter the type eventually require maintenance, service and repair. For this reason it is advisable to keep your original box and
packing material.In the event that yoursystem everneeds repair this will make sendingit in to the nearest service center much easier. Repairand
maintenance are both a normal partof usingany vapor system (or any other machine) on a regular,professional bases. Remember, repair is not
disaster but rather a simplyrepairand partof anysuccessful working business cycle. Any professional that depends upon one
machine for his or her whole livingshould have a backup plan. As your business expands and becomes more successful you may want to
considerpurchasing a second Vapor Rino ora smaller unitas a backup or to boostproduction.
Use CleanPure Water: Use only Clean Filteredtap water when possible. If no filteris available you can use simple CLEAN tap water. for your
boiler refill tank. Using clean, pure water greatly reduces mineralization and extends the life and performance of your machine. You can purchase
a simple water filter for your sinkat just about anyhardware or plumbing store . Usingunfiltered or dirty tap water on ANY vaporsteam cleaner
will reduce efficiency &life expectancy. You may use clean unfiltered tap water for your injection sys tem. Do not use Distilled water, it won't work.
Do No Freeze: Never leave your machine outin freezing weather even if stored in your vehicle.If the internal components freeze you can
expect the water filled tubes inside to burst. This may cause serious damage to the machine. NEVER ALLOW TO FREEZE!
Store Indoors: Store your machine indoors in a dry room temperature place. Do not store your machine outdoors or in a high humidity
location. Do not store in a work vehicle as high temperatures and radical changes in temperature may reduce machine life.
Keep Clean: A clean machine is a happy machine! Take pride in your new Vapor Rinoand keep it clean. Wipe down often and clean accessories
after each use. This reduces the likely hoodof damage due to foreign matter getting intoswitches and other components.It also makes your
company look good! Keep it clean, keep itprofessional!
Turn Off: Always turnyour machine OFF when not in use for any extended period. Automotive Detailers and other users often turn on their
machine and leave it runningupwards of 6 to 10 hours a daywithout giving it a rest. Don't do this. This is unique to vaporsystems as they
make verylittle sound, thus giving the appearance of not takingany wear. The factis our high powered Vapor Rino produces i nternal
temperatures upwards of 330 Degrees Fahrenheit. This intense heat can take a toll on the internal components. For this reason it is advisable
to press the OFF button on yoursteamer if you are not going to use your steamer for more then 20 to40 minutes. This reduces wear time
and may reduce the frequency of service and repair. Remember,once fully heated the Vapor Rino recovers veryfast once turned back on.
Contrast this 6 to 10 hours of non stop usage with your other power tools. Most users would never consider runninga shop vacuum,an
extractor motor or other power tool for 8 hours a day no stop for months on end and notexpect to require service atsome point. Turn your
vapor sys temoff when notin use.
Drain Boiler: Always empty your boiler if you do not intend on using your machine for more than a 7 to 14 days. Long termstorage (more
than 10 days) of yoursteamer with waterin it may cause a swamp water like effect in your system. This maylead to sensor failure.
How To Drain Boiler: Simply cool down your machine completely makingsure there is ZERO pressure reading on the pressure gauge AND the
steamer's body including the bottom are cold to the touch. Let it sit overnight unplugged if you are unsure. Once depressurized and cold drain
the water from the bottom of the machine using the easy thumbscrew drain plug. Allow to drain until no more water comes out. Itis a fast
and simple process thatis stronglyrecommended. Following this simple procedure may extend the life of your system and reduce the need
for repair orservice in the long term.
Clean Your Boiler: It is advisable to de-mineralize yourboilerafter approximately 40 to 100 hours of use also depending upon if your wateris
filtered or not andhow many minerals are in your watersupply. For typical use this means cleaning
yours ystem once everyone to 6 weeks. Using Quality Filtered water (Stronglyrecommended) reduces boiler buildup.
How to Clean Your Boiler: Cleaningis easy. Simplydrain the boiler using the drain plug on the bottom of the machine (be sure unit is cold
first! ) andemptythe waterin the refill tank that sits on top of the machine. Use the same kind of solution you would use when cleaning your
coffee maker. See yourlocal grocerystore. Follow the dilution directions.If the solution you purchase is thick, dilute until it resembles the
consistency of water. You can also use a blend of 50% tap water and 50% distilled WHITE Vinegar. Put about 3 liters of this solution in the
white/clear water reservoir. Turn on the machine and let it pump the solution down into the
tank. This may take as much as 5 minutes. DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED! DO NOT HEAT THE MACHINE UP!Once the transfer is complete
(no more buzzingsound) simply turn your machine off and unplug it. Let it sit for 6 to 12 hours for maximum de-s calingand cleaning effect.
NEXT Drain the boiler: Open bottom drain plug (onlywhen unitis COLD) completely. Remember, there maybe dirtywaterin the tank so emptyitall.
Empty the refill tank located on the top of the machine and rinse it out. It might be a good idea to capture the dirty water and inspect it. Learn how often
you will need to repeat this process in the future. Fill this tank with fresh clean water. Put the drain plug backin the bottom of the machine and turn it on.
Let the boiler fill but DO NOT HEAT THE MACHINE. Once the boileris full,empty the boileragain. Gently rock the machine back and forth to help shake
out anydirty material that maybe in the boiler. Repeat this process until you get clean water out of the boiler. Once done, replace the drain plug and
go back to normal use.

Troubleshooting
HELP ME - SOMETHING IS NOT WORKING!
Troubleshooting Page #1
Take a deep breath - help maybe just a few sentences away! 99% of the time the problem is just a simple adjustment so let's
have a look-see! Most of the calls or E-mails we get regarding a perceived problem with anew machines is simply minor a
misunderstanding on how to operate the system or how it's supposed to function. We will start with the most common problems
first and go from there.
(Quick Find) Most Common requests for help we get are:
1) Whywon't the orange lights turngreen?
a) The light bulbs are orange and never turn green. The green lens on the right is your boiler indicator light. It has an orange bulb underit. When it
blinks or goes solid itappears a bit orange. Again, this is normal andis simplythe color of the bulb.
2) I have full pressure on the gauge but when I pull the trigger nothing comes out. What can I do?
Don't Worry! There are a few simple possible solutions. If this "Quick find" doesn't answer the questions do the "walk through" to get it working!
a) First: Be sure you are properly plugged in, all the switch lights are working and you have full pressure on the gauge. I f not, see the operating your
machine section.
b) Next: Connect your steam hose to the machine. Be sure it clicks infirmly. Now pull the trigger for several seconds. Ifnothing comes out...
c) Next: Holding the gun in your hand look at the two buttons by your thumb. The switch on the left (#1 in picture to
the right) activates the steam. The rockerswitch needs to have the DOWNside toward you and the up side away
from you. The switch on the right (#2)is the injectionpump switch. This needs to be opposite of the steam switch
(#1). If the switch on the LEFT (#1) is set wrong, you will not get steam. When in doubt, try both ways but the down side
needs to be down towards your hand and the otherswitch (#2) the opposite way. Trysteaming now.
d) Next: THISIS A VERY COMMONISSUE. Often the steam flow adjustment knob gets turned down. See picture to the
right. If that pressure adjustment gets turned down all the way it shuts off the steam flow. This knob works much
like a common faucet or garden hose spigot. All the way up, full flow, all the waydown = off. The best way to adjust
this is to pull the steam gun trigger while turning the knob. This is also how you will adjust steam flow for various
jobs. Just s team and adjustas you watch the steam flow comingoutof the nozzle tip.
e) Next: Back to basics. Turn both of the main controls buttons on the machine off. Poweritdown. Now carefully
press the main powerbutton on. You will hear a clear beeplike tone. Once that tone stops turn on the second
button. Notice the pressure gauge. Be sure there is steampressure in the boiler. Itshould be up around 10 bars.
This means it is heated up. Please note, a cold machine takes about 15 minutes to heat up to ready
temperature. A new machine with an empty boiler takes longeras the boiler needs to be filledbefore it can
begin heating.
f) Next. Tryall of the above again. Be sure the steamer is up to pressure. Check the main switches on the gun. Be
sure both the main buttons are ON on the machine. IMPORTANT: If you turn the buttons on OUT OF ORDER the unit
will not produce steam. Now that you have completed these tasks and the boiler is charged pull the trigger, adjust the
thumb button and adjust the pressure knob.
g) If you still have trouble, give your re-seller a call.Have the unit ready to do a walk through to trouble shootiton the phone.
h) See website for more troubleshootingand videos.
