TIPS ON HOW TO USE YOUR SYSTEM IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your Steam Cleaner, basic safety precautions should always be
observed, including the following:
Hints
The steam cleaner has many uses that
have not been mentioned. This was
meant only to give you a general idea of
what can be achieved with the unit.
However, the ways in which to use the
attachments and brushes are in most
cases universal. It is most helpful to
always have a terry cloth towel or paper
towel ready to use for removal of
moisture and residue. 100% white
cotton towels work best.
You can clean the brushes with your
steam cleaner. When cleaning the
bristle brushes, use a pair of pliers to
hold and blow dirt as above or place in
the basket of your dishwasher.
Note: Wipe with a towel immediately
before the cleaned area dries. When
cleaning the oven, use the bristle brush
to clean around the elements and drip
trays. Use the bristle brush for cracks,
crevices, and hard to reach areas.
ALWAYS FINISH CLEANING BY WIPING DOWN THE CLEANED SURFACE
WITH A TOWEL
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
injury:
• Do not leave the steam cleaner plugged
in when unattended. Unplug the electrical
cord when not in use and before servicing
or refilling water tank.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close
attention is necessary when used by or
near children, pets or plants.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use
only manufacturer’s recommended
accessories.
• Do not pull cord, use cord as a handle,
close a door on cord, or pull cord around
sharp edges or corners. Keep cord away
from heated surfaces.
• Do not use extension cords or outlets with
inadequate current carrying capacity.
• Do turn off all controls as applicable
before unplugging from electrical outlet.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To
unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not handle plug or steam cleaner with
wet hands or operate without shoes.
• Do not put any objects into openings. Do
not use with any opening blocked.
• ALWAYS STORE YOUR APPLIANCE
INDOORS in a cool, dry area.
• Do keep your work area well lit.
• Do Not turn the appliance over or on its
side. Never direct steam towards
people, animals or plants.
• Do not immerse the steam cleaner into
water or other liquids. Always unplug the
power cord from the electrical socket
when filling the steam cleaner.
• Do NOT add cleaning solutions,
scented perfumes, oils or any other
chemicals to the water used in this
appliance as this may damage the unit
or make it unsafe for use. Use tap water
or distilled/purified water if the tap water in
your area is very hard.
1. Read all instructions before using your
steam cleaner.
2. Use the system only for its intended use.
3. To protect against a risk of electric shock,
do not immerse any part of the system in
water or other liquids.
4. Never yank cord to disconnect from
outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.
Let the system cool completely before
putting away or opening water tank
(removing the safety cap). Wrap cord
loosely around system when storing.
6. Always disconnect system from electrical
outlet when filling with water or emptying
and when not in use. Always turn the
safety cap slowly when opening the water
tank . This will allow any remaining steam
to escape gradually.
7. Do not operate the system with a damaged
cord or plug, or if the appliance or any other
part of the system has been dropped or
damaged. To avoid the risk of electric
shock, do not disassemble or attempt to
repair the steam cleaner. Return the
system to EURO-PRO Operating LLC (see
warranty) for examination and repair.
Incorrect re-assembly or repair can cause a
risk of electrical shock or injury to persons
when the steam cleaner is used.
8. Close supervision is necessary for any
appliance being used by or near children.
Do not leave the system unattended while
connected to electrical outlet or when hot.
9. Burns can occur from touching hot metal
parts, hot water or steam. Use caution
when draining unit after use as there may
be hot water in the unit. Never direct steam
at any person. The steam is very hot and
can cause burns.
10. Do not operate in the presence of
explosive and/or flammable fumes.
11. This appliance is intended only for
household use. Follow all user instructions
in this manual.
12. Never use any chemicals or substance
other than tap water in the machine. Use of
chemicals may damage the machine. Use
of chemicals will automatically void your
warranty.
Refrigerator - Use the concentrator to
blow away dirt in the ice machine and
on door seals. The vapor will not dry
out or crack the seals as chemicals
often do. Can openers and other
kitchen equipment can be easily
cleaned with the bristle brush to get into
all the nooks and crannies. Mold stains
around door gaskets can be removed
with the bristle brush.
To clean microwaves or other small
appliances use the nylon bristle brush
for small areas.
Note: When cleaning small electrical
appliances always unplug them from
outlet before cleaning. Do not direct
steam into any openings of the
appliances.
To clean counter tops, use the bristle
brush first in order to loosen the debris,
then wipe with a terry cloth towel to
finish.
