PROPER STORAGE
Preparing your Steam Vacuum for storage is quick and simple. When you have finished your
cleaning tasks, follow the steps listed below.
1. Set Steam-Vac Switch and Main Control Switch to “Off” position and unplug power cord
from electrical outlet.
2. Allow unit to cool for at least 30 minutes.
3. Remove all attachments from unit.
4. Remove and empty Water Filtration Chamber, then replace.
5. Drain any remaining water in water reservoir into a sink or tub to prevent over-filling
during your next use.
6. Store attachments safely away, preferably near Steam Vacuum.
7. Store Steam Vacuum in a cool, dry location.
REMOVING MINERAL BUILD-UP
One common problem with steam appliances is mineral build-up caused by high mineral
content in many municipal water supplies. The best way to avoid this is to use de-
mineralized or distilled water in unit. If you are unable to use de-mineralized or distilled
water, we recommend you use this procedure monthly to help avoid mineral build-up:
1. Switch Steam-Vac Switch and Main Control Switch to “Off” position and unplug power
cord from electrical outlet. Allow unit to cool for at least 30 minutes.
2. Remove all attachments from unit.
3. Remove Water Reservoir Cap.
4. Drain water reservoir into sink or tub.
5. Using Measuring Cup, make a mixture of 5 oz. vinegar and 5 oz. water.
6. Slowly pour water-vinegar solution into water reservoir, using Water Funnel to prevent
spilling water.
7. Allow to stand for 40 minutes.
8. Drain water-vinegar solution from water reservoir.
9. Rinse water reservoir with fresh water and drain until vinegar odor dissipates.
10. Replace Water Reservoir Cap.
REMOVING/REPLACING AIR FILTER
The MC1860 Steam Vacuum incorporates an air filter, in addition to the water filtration sys-
tem. This air filter purifies the air that is released by the unit during vacuuming, helping to
make the air in your home cleaner and safer to breath. After several uses, we recommend
removing and cleaning this filter to keep it functioning optimally. Also, we recommend
replacing the filter with a new one after approximately 6 months of regular use.
To remove the air filter, grasp the small tab on the bottom of the filter faceplate, pull
outward, and the faceplate will release. You can now clean the filter on the back side of the
faceplate, as well as the sponge filter inside of air filtration outlet. Rinse with warm water,
and allow to air-dry completely before placing back into unit.
For information on obtaining replacement air filters, refer to page 14 of this manual.
