Kitchen/Bathroom/Nursery

The kitchen, bathroom and nursery are the three areas of your
home most likely to harbor harmful fungus, bacteria and
viruses. Routinely sanitizing the hard surfaces in these areas,
particularly the areas you use frequently, can significantly
reduce bacteria and odors. Use your Steam ‘n Clean regularly
to sanitize sinks, countertops, toilet bowls, changing tables,
diaper pails and other hard, non-porous surfaces.

1. Fill the Water Tank with cool tap water or distilled/

demineralized water.

2. Connect the C.I.D. plug to an appropriate outlet. 
3. Attach a sanitizing tool. For large surface sanitizing, 

such as countertops, basins, toilets, bidets, crib surfaces,
changing tables or diaper pails, use the 2-Position Steam
Applicator. For smaller areas, use the Steam Jet with or 
without the Steam Brush.

4. When green indicator light glows, slide Safety Lock back to

activate Steam Switch. Press switch to release steam. Steam
continues to come out of the tool while switch is pressed.

5.

To sanitize, treat surfaces with steam for 20 
seconds, holding the applicator no more than 
2 inches from the surface.

6. Wipe surface with a clean dry cloth. 

NOTE: Steam will not remove stains from fabric or other porous surfaces.

Mattresses and pillows

Dust mites are microscopic creatures, too small
to be seen by the naked eye. Yet the average
mattress may hold over two million dust mites,
a major cause of many indoor allergies. 
Use your Steam ‘n Clean to kill dust mites on
the surface of your mattresses and pillows.

1. Fill the Water Tank with cool tap water or

distilled/demineralized water.

2. Connect the C.I.D. plug to an appropriate

outlet. 

3. Attach the 2-Position Steam Applicator,

set to the extended or ‘long’ position for 
diffused steam. 

4. When green indicator light glows, slide

Safety Lock back to activate Steam Switch.
Press switch to release steam. Steam 
continues to come out of the tool while
switch is pressed.

5.

To kill dust mites treat surfaces with
steam for 20 seconds, holding the
applicator no more than 2 inches
from the surface.

6. Make sure the surface is completely dry, then

vacuum thoroughly.

Steam sanitizing hard surfaces

Use your Steam ‘n Clean to remove wrinkles from clothes, and
“freshen” clothing that has been stored.

1. Hang clothing from a shower rod or clothes hook using a

sturdy clothes hanger.

2. Fill the Water Tank with cool tap water or distilled/

demineralized water.

3. Connect the C.I.D. plug to an appropriate outlet.
4. Attach the 2-Position Steam Applicator, set to the extended

or ‘long’ position for diffused steam.

5. When green indicator light glows, slide Safety Lock back to

activate Steam Switch. Press switch to release steam. Steam
continues to come out of the tool while switch is pressed.

6. Treat clothing until wrinkles loosen. Use a clothes brush as

you steam.
