If you fill your Steam&Sweep cleaner with
normal tap water, it is essential to check
the filter and replace it when it is no longer
effective. Change the filter when the bright
green grains turn blue. If the filter is not
changed at the appropriate time, calcium
deposits will accumulate on the heating
element, causing damage or reduced per-
formance.
To replace the filter, pull it up and away
from the Steam&Sweep.
Using distilled or demineralized water will
maximize the performance of your filter.
To order a replacement filter, refer to the
replacement parts section on page 10.
