MIRACLE STEAMER
15 P/N 1010699 Rev. M 12/06
NOTE: To ensure proper steaming characteristics,
some calcium/mineral deposits must be present on
the generator surface. If, during cleaning, the sur-
face does become free of calcium/mineral deposits,
add plain tap water to the surface and allow it to
boil off. If necessary, repeat this process to formu-
late a thin coating of calcium/mineral deposits.
NOTE: In soft water areas, it may be necessary
to add a small amount of lime to the generator to
“season” it. This will ensure proper steaming char-
acteristics by producing a thin coating of calcium/
mineral deposits on the generator surface.
Seasoning mixture consists of 3/4 ounces (25ml/
25cc) baking soda, 3/4 ounces (25ml/25cc) lime
mixed with 1 quart (950ml/950cc) of water. Stir
mixture and pour 1/4” deep onto the hot generator
surface. After mixture is converted to steam, the
remaining loose power can be removed.
7. Plug the power cord into the appropriate outlet.
8. Turn the unit ON. Allow the unit to warm up for
approximately 30 minutes.
9. Push and release the Operate button or the
Single Shot button several times to operate the
steamer. This purges any remaining delimer
residue from the generator surface.
10. Turn the unit off, reinstall all parts and accesso-
ries, and return the unit to service.
CLEANING STEAM GENERATOR
1. Turn the unit off and unplug the power cord.
Allow the unit to cool down before proceeding.
2. Perform the Daily cleaning, but DO NOT reas-
semble the unit
3. Remove the wing nut, Generator Cover, and
Diffuser (Figure 8). Wash these items in hot,
soapy water, rinse and WIPE DRY.
4. With the unit cool, use a wire brush and/or scrap-
er to loosen and remove the excessive calcium/
mineral deposits from the generator surface
(Figure 8). Next, take a wire brush and clean
out any build up that has accumulated in the 28
steam ports (26 vertical and 2 horizontal) of the
generator (Figure 8). Remove the loose build up,
wipe the generator with a clean, damp cloth, and
reassemble the unit.
NOTE: If deposits are still excessive and/or diffi-
cult to remove, refer to Steps 5 and 10.
5. Pour delimer solution (not supplied) onto the gen-
erator surface. Follow the delimer manufacturer’s
instructions for proper mixture and use.
CAUTION
If a chemical cleaner/delimer is used, be sure it is
safe to use on cast aluminum. Observe all pre-
cautions and warnings on the product label.
6. Using a sponge or a dry towel, remove the
delimer solution from the generator surface, then
rinse with clean water.
