The brass ball weight
(16)
The brass ball weight inside the water tank is
attached to the end of the suction hose. The ball
is weighted and designed to freely move around
the water tank depending on the position of the
product. The ball must remain in the water so
steam can be generated whenever the steam
trigger is pressed regardless of the orientation of
the hand-held steamer.
Rinsing the water tank
Regularly rinse the water tank to release any
deposits that have collected on the bottom of the
tank. Only use de-ionised, demineralised or
distilled water (available from most large
supermarkets) and fit the filler cap to allow
vigorous rinsing.
Follow the two maintenance steps below after
every use.
1.
Switch the cleaner off and unplug from the
socket. Place immediately on a suitable surface
(eg. tiled floor) where the residual heat/moisture in
the floor nozzle/cloth will not affect the surface.
Wait until the cleaner has cooled down
completely.
2.
Empty the water tank
(14)
by removing the filler
cap
(11)
and pouring out the water. Allow the
inside of the water tank to dry out before
replacing the filler cap.
Wrap the cord around the two cord storage hooks
(4/5)
, rotating the upper storage hook
(4)
upwards
to secure the power cord
(10)
in place.
Put all accessories into the accessory bag
(32)
and hang the bag from the upper cord storage
hook.
WARNING: Always unplug the Steam cleaner
from the mains supply before undertaking any
maintenance procedures.
Overall maintenance
Your cleaner is manufactured to withstand normal
day-to-day use, but an occasional wipe over with
a damp cloth will help maintain it. Abrasive
cleaners should not be used.
Cleaning the cloths
The floor cloth
(20)
and the elasticated utility cloth
(28)
can all be machine washed (30ºC max). For
heavy soiling, soak the cloths in warm water and
detergent or a mild stain remover.
IMPORTANT: Do not use bleach or fabric
softener.
Allow to completely dry before storing.
Contact our helpline to purchase replacement
cloths.
Maintaining the attachments
Dirt and blockages should be regularly removed
from the attachments to help prolong their usage.
