STEAM CLEANING
NOTE: Be sure that Reservoir has been filled and that all desired accessories are connected before
following these steps.
1.
For first time use, remove protective plastic cover from electrical plug. Plug power cord into a
convenient electrical outlet.
2.
Switch Lighted On/Off Switch to “
I
” (on) position. Steam Indicator Light will immediately illuminate,
indicating that unit is heating.
3.
After approximately 2-8 minutes (depending on how much water is in Reservoir), Steam Indicator Light will
turn blue, indicating that unit is fully heated and ready to begin steaming.
4.
Direct Main Nozzle (and any connected accessories) towards surface you wish to steam, and press
Steam Trigger.
CAUTION: Always be sure that Main Nozzle and any accessories are pointed in a safe
direction (away from yourself, other people, pets, and plants) before pressing Steam Trigger.
5.
Hold Steam Trigger down for a continuous flow of steam. You may also slide the Steam Trigger Lock
forward while pressing the Steam Trigger to lock it down. This will allow a continuous flow of steam
without need of holding the Steam Trigger down manually.
6.
Using a slight back-and-forth motion over the area you are steaming will further enhance the cleaning
process. Wipe steamed areas with a clean cloth to remove loosened dirt and grime. Wiping the area
while it is still wet is recommended, but use caution when wiping surfaces such as metal that may still be hot.
NOTE: During use, the Steam Indicator Light may illuminate red. This is normal. If you notice a
drop in steam pressure, release Steam Trigger until Steam Indicator Light turns blue again.
7.
To effectively kill bacteria and other microorganisms, hold Main Nozzle (and any connected
accessories) approximately 1/2 inch from surface and press Steam Trigger. Keep Steam Trigger held
and concentrate steam on the same spot for at least 5 seconds.
8.
Once steaming tasks are complete, immediately set Lighted On/Off Switch to “
O
” (off) position and
unplug grounded power cord from electrical outlet. Follow steps under
Proper Storage

STEAM MOPPING
NOTE: Be sure that Reservoir has been filled and that all steam mopping accessories are connected
before following these steps.
It is recommended to sweep or vacuum hard floors before mopping.
1.
Follow STEPS 1-3 of
Steam Cleaning
section above.
Refer to Page 6 for a listing of hard floor surfaces that are recommended for cleaning with the
Portable Power Steam Cleaner.
2.
For best results, use a steady back-and-forth motion over floor surface, pushing the Mop Head away
and pulling it back towards you. Work your way backwards over the floor, in order to avoid walking
over freshly mopped areas.
NOTE: To avoid warping or damage caused by heat and moisture, do not use on unsealed
hardwood or unglazed ceramic surfaces. Steam may remove the sheen from some floors that
have been treated with wax.
3.
To effectively kill bacteria and microorganisms, repeatedly mop a single small area (approximately
3’ x 3’ for best results) for at least 2 minutes.
4.
The Microfiber Pad will absorb dirt and moisture during mopping. However, when you are finished
you may find some residual moisture has been left behind. In this case, it is recommended to allow
floor time to air-dry. A fan may be directed towards mopped area to facilitate drying.
