PROPER STORAGE
Preparing your Portable Steam Cleaner for storage is quick and simple. When you have finished
your steaming tasks, follow the steps listed below.
1.
Unplug power cord from electrical outlet.
2.
Allow unit to cool (30 minutes for complete cooling).
3.
Press and hold Steam Trigger to release any remaining steam pressure.
4.
Remove all connected attachments from unit.
5.
Unscrew and remove Boiler Cap. Drain any remaining water in Boiler into a sink or tub – this
will help to minimize potential mineral build-up in the Boiler, as well as prevent unintentional
overfilling during your next use.
6.
Loosely replace Boiler Cap. Do not screw on tightly, as this may make it difficult to remove in
the future.
7.
Loosely bundle power cord and store Portable Steam Cleaner and all accessories in a cool,
dry location.
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 Portable Steam Cleaner.
The best way to minimize mineral build-up is to use distilled or de-mineralized water when
using your Portable Steam Cleaner.
In addition, it is recommended that the unit be cleaned at
least once a month in order to remove any deposits that form. This will help to extend the life of
your Portable Steam Cleaner and keep it functioning at its maximum potential.
To remove mineral build-up:
1.
Unplug power cord from electrical outlet.
2.
Allow unit to cool (at least 30 minutes for complete cooling).
3.
Press and hold Steam Trigger to release all remaining steam pressure.
4.
Remove all connected attachments from unit.
5.
Unscrew and remove Boiler Cap.
6.
Drain all water from Boiler into a sink or tub.
7.
Fill Measuring Cup with 16 oz. (473 ml.) distilled vinegar.
8.
Carefully pour vinegar into Boiler. Slowly shake or move unit around to agitate vinegar.
9.
Allow to stand for at least 40 minutes, or more if possible.
10.
Drain vinegar from Boiler.
11.
Rinse Boiler with fresh water, drain and repeat until vinegar odor dissipates.
12.
Loosely replace Boiler Cap and store Portable Steam Cleaner as usual.
