or other liquids. Always unplug the power
cord from the electrical socket when filling the
steam cleaner.

, basic safety precautions should
always be observed, including the following:
1.
Read all instructions before using your
Canister Steam Cleaner.
2.
Use the system only for its intended use.
3.

power cord loosely around your system
when storing.
6.
Always disconnect system from electrical
outlet when filling or emptying water tank
and when not in use. Always turn the
safety cap slowly when opening the water

ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
2
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. To avoid circuit overload,
do not
operate another appliance on the same socket
(circuit) as the steam cleaner.
2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, use a 14 gage cord rated at a
minimum of 15 amperes. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care
should be taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
3.
Do not
leave unattended when the system is connected to a power
supply/electrical outlet.
WARNING:
This appliance is equipped with a grounded, type 3-wire
cord (3-prong plug). This plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made
for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If the plug should fail to fit the
outlet, contact an electrician to replace the outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the grounding pin, part of the 3-prong plug.
CAUTION:
Always drain condensed water from hose before use or if
unit has been left idle for a period of time. To drain hose, direct nozzle
into an appropriate container or sink and depress hand grip steam switch.
Once hose has been drained, normal use may be resumed. Never direct
nozzle towards people, animals or plants.
IMPORTANT:
Do
NOT
add cleaning solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any
other chemicals to the water used in this appliance.
Use regular water or
distilled/purified water if the tap water in your area is very hard.
WARNING:
Your Steam Cleaner is designed to clean hard surfaces and
upholstery that will withstand high heat.
Do not
use on soft plastics and cold
glass. On surfaces that have been treated with wax or some no wax floors, the
sheen may be removed by the heat and steam action.
Do not
use on unsealed
wood. This could cause the wood grain to rise. It is therefore recommended to
test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding.
WARNING
:
Danger of Scalding
. Please use caution when using the
steam cleaner. The steam emitted from this aperture is very hot.
