4. When you have finished refreshing your carpet or rug, unplug the steam mop and remove from the carpet
or rug.
NOTE: Move the Steam Mop and carpet refresher attachment in a continuous motion until you are
finished. This product is not intended to be used as a carpet cleaner, only a carpet refresher or
deodorizer. Never attempt to use the Steam Mop on carpet without the carpet refresher attachment
in place. DO NOT leave the mop in a stationary position.
Replacing the water filter
If you fill your Steam Mop cleaner with normal tap water, it is essential to check the water filter and replace
it when it is no longer effective. Change the filter when the bright green grains turn blue. If the filter is not
changed at the appropriate time, calcium deposits will accumulate on the heating element, causing dam-
age or reduced performance. Using distilled or demineralized water will maximize the performance
of your filter.
When you're done
1. Unplug power cord from outlet.
2. Carefully remove mop pad from swivel mop head,
as mop pad and lower assembly will be hot.
3. Any water remaining in the water tank should be emptied
prior to machine storage.
4. Mop pad can be machine washed in warm water. Use only
liquid detergants. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, For
best results, air dry.
5. Wrap power cord around quick release cord wrap.
6. Wipe all surfaces of Steam Mop with a soft cloth. Store
upright in a protected, dry area.
