Cleaning, maintenance and storage
BE SURE THAT THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER OUTLET AND COMPLETLEY
COOLED DOWN BEFORE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE
Drain the remaining water in the tank and rinse after use.
Cleaning attachments can be washed in warm water with a small amount of dish soap if they
become dirty.
How to clean the water tank
To remove water marks and/or calcium deposits that build up inside the water tank, add one
or two tablespoons of white vinegar to a full water tank, replace the tank cap and then shake
the contents.
DO NOT TURN THE STEAMER ON.
How to remove limescale
If your steam mop begins to produce steam more slowly than usual or stops producing steam
completely, it may have a buildup of limescale. Lime scale can develop over time on the
metal parts, especially in hard water areas and can greatly affect performance.
It is advised to remove lime scale on regular basis every approximately once a month,
depending on water hardness and frequency of use.
1.
Prepare a solution of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 tap water and add to the water tank.
2.
Secure and position the unit to ensure steam released is aimed away from the floor or
surrounding objects and surface. Plug the unit in, turn the unit ON by pressing the power
switch, and allow the unit to produce steam until the vinegar/water solution is used up.
3.
Repeat the above procedure as many times as necessary until a normal steam flow rate is
achieved.
4.
Rinse out the tank thoroughly.
5.
Fill the water tank with fresh water, attach to the unit and release steam through the
system until the water tank is empty to completely flush out any residual cleaning solution.
WARNING
Don't leave the steamer unattended during the limescale removal process and/or while in
use.
Perform a test cleaning on a suitable isolated area after each lime scale removal to ensure
that there is no debris left in the system.
