OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
More Important Notes
7
The boiler is fitted with a safety cap which prevents the tank
from being opened while there is still pressure inside.
8
Do not plug in the Steamax™ or operate it if any of its
components are damaged or if the Steamax™ leaks.
9
The Steamax™ can reach very high temperatures during use.
Be careful not to touch certain parts (i.e. end of nozzles) as
you could be scalded.
10
When using an extension cord, make sure it is rated for 15A or
higher.
(Using lower rated extension cord will void the warranty.)
11
Only use tap water in the Steamax™. Do not add chemical,
detergent, or any other chemical additive. Filling the
Steamax™ with anything other than tap water will void the
warranty.
Do not use DI (Deionized) water.
12
Do not spray steam at people, animals or plants at close
distance. When cleaning silk plants, keep a safe distance
from them to avoid damaging them.
13
When using accessories, use each one for the appropriate
surfaces.

• Condensation may leave water drops in the hose and accessories since
the last use or during idle time. Therefore, before you start cleaning, it
is advisable to adjust the steam level to its maximum and let the steam
escape for a few seconds to clear the condensed water drops from the
hose and attachments.
• Do not use the Steamax™ to clean non-heat resistant materials.
• Do not leave the steam level at its maximum for too long: a medium level
is usually enough, and less energy and water are required.
• When doing the initial cleaning with steam, especially for ground-in dirt,
longer steaming time than usual may be required to get the best results.
