MINERAL BUILD-UP
A common maintenance need for steam appliances is the removal of build-up caused by high
mineral content in many municipal water supplies. This mineral build-up may limit the
effectiveness and reduce the life of your
Steam Mop
.
The best way to minimize mineral build-up is to use distilled or de-mineralized water when
using your
Steam Mop
.
In addition, it is recommended that the Boiler be cleaned at least once a
month in order to remove any deposits that form. This will help to extend the life of your
Steam Mop
and keep it functioning at its maximum potential.
To remove mineral build-up:
1.
Gently press down on Foot-Controlled On/Off Switch until it
clicks
– Power Indicator Light will
turn off. Unplug power cord from electrical outlet.
IMPORTANT: Unit should remain off and unplugged during cleaning procedure.
2.
Allow unit to cool for a minimum of 5 minutes.
3.
Disconnect Telescopic Pole, and if attached, remove Microfiber Cloth. Leaving them off during
cleaning will make process easier.
4.
Remove Boiler Cap and drain any water remaining in Boiler into a sink or tub.
5.
Using Measuring Cup, make a mixture of 3.4 oz. (100 ml.) water and 3.4 oz. (100 ml.) vinegar.
6.
Pour water/vinegar solution into Boiler.
7.
Allow water/vinegar solution to soak in boiler for 30-40 minutes.
8.
Drain water/vinegar solution from Boiler into a sink or tub. Refill Boiler with fresh water, drain
and repeat until vinegar odor dissipates.
9.
Replace Boiler Cap, reconnect Telescopic Pole, and store your
Steam Mop
as usual.
