Safeguards and Warnings
Cleaning Fabrics:
A number of materials and fabrics are NOT suitable to be
cleaned by steam:
DO NOT use on synthetic fabrics, velvet, Dralon
®
or other
delicate, steam sensitive materials.
When steaming any surface for the first time, it is
recommended that you consult the manufacture’s
guidelines for cleaning.
Cleaning Glass/Mirrors:
Thermal shock can also shatter glass. Do not apply steam
to glass surfaces that are cooler than 32°F.
Electrical Connections
• DO use a three-pronged extension cord that is at least
18 gauge.
• DO only plug the cord or extension cord into a three-
pronged grounded power supply.
• To prevent electrical shock, NEVER immerse the
Steamer into water or other liquids
Prop 65 Warning
Handling the coated electrical wires of this product
exposes you to lead, a chemical known to the State of
California to cause birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after use.
Grounding Instructions
The product must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This product is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Warning
DANGER - Improper use of the grounding plug can result
in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary,
do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The grounding wire has green insulation, with or
without yellow stripes. Check with a qualified electrician
or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician. This product is for use
on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in Figure A.
Make sure the product is connected to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. A temporary adaptor,
which looks like the adaptor illustrated in Figure B, may
be used to connect the plug to a two-pole receptacle
as shown in Figure B if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The temporary adaptor should only be used until
a properly grounded outlet (Figure A) can be installed by
a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear plug or
the like extending from the adaptor must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet
box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held
in place by a metal screw.
Extension Cords
Use only a three-pronged extension cord that has a three-
blade grounding plug and a three-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension
cord is UL/ETL/CSA listed and is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough
for the current. For lengths less than 18 feet, use a No. 16
AWG or heavier; for lengths more than 18 feet but less
than 25 feet, use No. 14 AWG; for lengths more than 25
feet, use No. 12 AWG or heavier. If in doubt, use a heavier
gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating which can
damage the unit or extension cord.
Storage
Make sure unit is clean and dry before storing. Store in a
dry location. To prevent damage, the electrical cord should
not be crimped during storage.
