OPERATING THE
APPLIANCE
Please remember that the steam
cleaner operates by emitting
steam at an increased
temperature of 115
o
C. Never
use on materials or surfaces
that cannot resist this
temperature, such as dralon,
plastic, natural fur etc.
Where any doubt exists, check
carefully on a part of the
material where minor marks will
not matter.
Filling the water tank
1
To fill, unscrew the filler cap
‹
anti-clockwise
A
.
2
Fill the boiler with a maximum of
1 litre of water by using the
funnel and the filler jug provided
B
.
Three full jugs equal the
maximum 1 litre.
Use warm water or less water to
reduce the heat up time.
One jug will provide 10 minutes
of steam. The full three jugs will
provide 30 minutes of steam.
WARNING: Do not overfill.
•
Do not use any detergent.

WARNING: Screw the filler
cap clockwise to tighten.

from the nozzle. Hold the
nozzle away from the body
and away from other persons.

bucket.
WARNING: Do not block the
end of the nozzle. If the nozzle

relief valve releases steam
pressure from the base of the
filler cap.
NOTE: the ‘heater ON’ light will
cycle on and off during use, this
is normal.
NOTE: If the product is switched
off before the boiler is empty,
steam will continue to be
emitted for up to 2 minutes. You
can continue to use the steam
to clean or rest the hose in a
sink until the steam has
dispersed.
