Flooring and Carpeting:
• This unit is not recommended for use on surfaces that can be damaged by heat or water, such as self-adhesive vinyl tiling, or
wood flooring as the steam may cause the floor boards to swell. Always check with floor manufacturer before using steamer.

unseen area of carpet, and allow 24 hours to verify any unusual effects on the carpet. If this occurs,
DO NOT CONUTINUE

Check with your carpet supplier for further information.
Windows and Tiles:
• Be careful not to pick up dirt or grit particles on the rubber blade as this could scratch the glass.
• Antique and stained glass may be brittle and may crack under extreme temperatures.
