OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS cont.
CONSIGNES DE SÛRETÉ IMPORTANTES (suite)
Blinds
Use the detail brush to clean blinds.
Move the brush over the surface, allowing
enough time for the vapor to penetrate.
Work quickly on PVC blinds. Test for
color fastness on fabric blinds before
using.
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors
Use the floor brush with a terry cloth
attached. Move the brush across the floor
as if you are mopping. When the towel is
soiled, you can turn the towel over or
replace it with a clean towel. If you are
working on a very dirty area, you can move
the brush over the area slowly, several
times. If it is a wood floor, move fast to
avoid heat or moisture buildup in the wood.
By cleaning with the towel over the brush,
you will not affect the shine on the floor.
To Strip Wax
: Use floor brush for open
areas; detail brush for corners or tight areas
- no towel, slow strokes. Work a small area
at a time - remove the emulsified wax from
the floor. When all of the wax has been
stripped, immediately clean the floor and
brushes with water before residue has a
chance to harden on them. Go back over
the stripped area with the floor brush with a
towel to remove any remaining residue
before waxing.
To Clean Waxed Floors:
Wrap clean towel
around the floor brush, brush quickly. This
will cause the dirt to be removed but not the
wax.
Vinyl Floors:
Do not allow heat to buildup
in any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it
enough to affect its texture. Work fast on
vinyl.
Tile Floors:
Use the angle
concentrator/brush adapter with the detail
brush attached to an extension. Have the
floor brush with cloth attached ready as
well. Clean the grout between the tiles with
the detail brush. Remove the detail brush
and attach the floor brush, move the brush
across the floor to clean the tile and remove
excess moisture and residue. For areas of
tile that are very dirty, remove the towel and
agitate with the brush. Do not let the area
dry before you wipe it up.
POUR USAGE DOMESTIQUE SEULEMENT
CONSERVEZ CES DIRECTIVES
1. Pour éviter la surcharge des circuits, évitez d’utiliser tout autre appareil dans
la même prise (le même circuit).
2. Si une rallonge électrique est absolument nécessaire, un rallonge de 15 ampères,
calibre 14 doit être utilisée. Les rallonges dont l’ampérage est inférieur pourraient
surchauffer. Assurez-vous que la rallonge ne puisse pas être tirée et que
personne ne puisse y trébucher.
3. Évitez de laisser l’appareil sans surveillance s’il est branché à une source
d’alimentation ou dans une prise électrique.
Refrigerator
- Use the angle concentrator/
brush adapter alone to blow away dirt in
the ice machine and on door seals. The
vapor will not dry out or crack the seals as
chemicals often do. Can openers and
other kitchen equipment can be easily
cleaned with the detail brush to get into all
the nooks and crannies.
To clean
microwaves
or
other small
appliances
use the detail brush for small
areas.
Note:
When cleaning small electrical
appliances always unplug them from outlet
before cleaning.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Cet appareil est doté d’un
cordon à trois fils mis à la terre (fiche à trois lames). Cette
fiche ne pourra s’insérer que dans une prise conçue pour
une fiche à trois lames. Il s’agit d’un dispositif de sécurité.
Si la fiche ne peut pas s’enfoncer dans la prise, adressez-
vous à un électricien qui pourra changer la prise. Ne tentez
pas de déjouer le dispositif de sécurité de la lame de mise à
la terre qui fait partie de la fiche à trois lames.
Upholstery
Use the floor brush attached directly to
the hand grip with a clean white terry
cloth towel. Use fast, light strokes, avoid
getting the fabric wet. Be patient with
stubborn spots; work on a spot gently for
no more than a minute at a time, then
wait five minutes for the area to dry and
repeat. Use circular movements or back-
and-forth and side-to-side movements to
get all sides of surface fibers. Finish with
a brushing in one direction that will give
the fabric a uniform appearance.
CAUTION:
Always determine the
color-fastness of any fabric-especially
with reds or blues - by taking a clean,
moist, warm towel and gently rubbing a
small area as far down on the back or
other out of the way place on the
furniture as possible. If color comes off
on the towel, you may need to have the
piece dry cleaned.
Exterior Areas
To clean inside your car, use the floor brush
with a terry cloth towel attached to clean
upholstery and interior areas just as in the
home. You should not expose the bristles
to leather - use only the brush with the terry
cloth towel attached. For detailing the
wheels, use the angle concentrator and the
detail brush. Exterior windows are cleaned
best by applying the vapor with the angle
concentrator and following with a paper
towel.
To clean bicycles, use the detail brush.
To clean equipment, use the detail brush,
depending on the surface area.
Note
: When using the steam cleaner,
please note that the force and the heat of
the steam may damage certain surfaces or
textiles. Always test on a small, concealed
area of the material that you are steam
cleaning. i.e. painted wood or leather can
be bleached with hot steam; glossy plastic
can be dulled, fabrics such as acrylic,
velvet and linen can react sensitively to the
temperature of the steam.
