Filling Your Steam Bottle With Water
WARNING:
With steam brush attachment assembled to unit -
Do not
press Steam Trigger more than once per second.
Pressing steam
trigger quickly may cause hot water to accumulate between attachment
and main unit which could then leak through crevice and
burn user’s
hand
.
Nylon Bristle Brushes (x4)
Four nylon bristle brushes are
included with your steam cleaner to
enable you to use a different one for
different areas in your home.
They are best for any task requiring
concentrated medium-pressure
steam with additional rubbing action
to loosen embedded dirt such as
cleaning grout in between the tiles,
ceramic and marble.
To use: Push the nylon bristle brush
onto the end of the concentrator
nozzle or the extended
concentrator.
NOTE:
If using the steam cleaner with
the nozzle pointing downwards, you will
need to return the unit to an upright
position every now and again to enable
the tube inside the water tank to dip into
the water reservoir, thereby preserving
the flow of water to the heating
element.
CAUTION
: Press steam trigger intermittently no more than once every 1
or 2 seconds. Rapid pressing in succession will cause water leaking and
spitting. Wait for steam pressure to reduce before pressing steam
trigger again. By pressing intermittently you will note a rhythm for
maintaining a continuous flow of steam without any water dripping or
leaking.
NOTE
:First usage may require 6-10 rapid pushes on steam push button
before steam exits. Keep pressing for a few seconds until steam has
developed from first rapid depressing of steam trigger, then you can
continue intermittent pressing of steam trigger as detailed above.
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.
