Vapor Boss Steam System 15 Rev 6/11
How Do I Refill the Steam Cleaner?
How do I know if my steam cleaner needs refilling?
When one of the following happens, your steam cleaner is low on water:
Low water indicator light
Pressure Gauge
1. The orange Low Water Indicator Light turns on.
2. The pressure drops fast (below 2 bars) and pressure gauge stays low.
3. Amount of steam is very light and moisture content is low.
Once it is determined water is low, follow directions listed below.
How to refill your steam cleaner
1. Press the On/Off power button (
) to the
OFF
position. The orange light on the button will
turn off. The Steam Release Button (
) must be in the
ON
position. The orange light on
this button will light up. (This is important because the unit will not cool sufficiently in order
to refill.) Pull trigger on handle until pressure gauge reads ”0” (zero).
2. Unplug the steam cleaner.
3.
WARNING - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADD WATER WHILE THE BOILER TANK IS STILL
HOT. LET THE STEAM BOILER COOL AT LEAST 20 MINUTES BEFORE ADDING
WATER.
4. Cover the safety cap with a towel, press down on cap and turn cap very slowly counter-
clockwise. You may hear some steam escaping. Keep the towel over the cap. Remove the
safety cap. Refill the steam cleaner tank with clean drinkable water using the water bottle.
We recommend using distilled water in areas with hard tap water. This water will
provide longer life to the unit, higher steam capacity, and reduce maintenance
requirements. Do NOT under any circumstance put cleaning fluids into the machine.
5. Replace safety cap and hand tighten the cap clockwise. Plug the steam cleaner in and
press the On/Off button (
)
ON
(the orange light on the button should illuminate).
NOTE: WHEN UNIT IS BEING USED, THE GREEN LIGHT (READY LIGHT) NEXT TO THE
STEAM ICON (
) WILL NOT BE ON CONTINUOUSLY. IT WILL COME ON
INTERMITTENTLY.
