4. Place the cleaning mop (part no.14) on the steam head (part no.12). Slightly loosen the string at the edge of
the mop to ease the mop onto the head, then fasten the string.
5. Check that the steam flow control knob (part no.8) is turned clockwise to the closed (CLOSE) position
before use. The mop should only be filled with water when the steam flow is closed and the appliance
is switched off.
6. Unscrew the cap (part no.10) from the water inlet (part no.11) on the upper part of the appliance and fill the
tank with 300ml of distilled water. Use the measuring cup (supplied with the mop) to fill it with water. 300ml
is the maximum water capacity of the appliance and will allow approximately 20 minutes of cleaning at the
maximum position of the steam flow control. Do not pour too much water into the tank as the water could
escape during use.
Never use the appliance with an empty water tank. Do not pour hot water into the water tank
or add any kind of detergent, cleaning agent or other chemicals to the water. Do not use tap water
as this will cause scale, resulting in damage to the appliance. The manufacturer is not liable for
any damage caused by scaling.
USING THE STEAM MOP
The steam mop is only suitable for cleaning internal, smooth, horizontal, hard floor surfaces made of wood,
marble, tile or plastic. It cannot be used to clean uneven floor surfaces, stairs, carpets or external areas.
The appliance should only be connected to mains electricity after it has been filled with water and the mop (part
no.14) has been secured. Using the appliance without the mop could cause an accident, including damage to
the floor surface and damage to the appliance. Do not use the appliance if the electrical cable is lying on the floor
and not secured in the cable clip. Always sweep or vacuum clean the floor before using the steam mop. Please
note that the manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by failure to follow these instructions.
1. The appliance will start working as soon as the power cable is connected to the mains. The indicator lamp on
the front of the appliance (part no.9) will glow red to show that water is being heated. The steam flow control
knob (part no.8) must be kept in the closed position when the water is being heated. When the steam mop
reaches its maximum temperature of 110°C -130°C, the lamp will change to green. You can now open the
steam flow control by gently turning the knob anti-clockwise. The amount of steam can be regulated by the
amount the knob is turned (up to the "MAX OPEN" position). This steam can disinfect surfaces and clean dirt
from the floor.
If the control knob is turned when the light is still red and the steam head is not hot enough, hot water might
escape from the steam head. This could damage certain floor surfaces.
2. Push the steam mop slowly forward and backward on the surface you want to clean. Heavily soiled surfaces
(e.g. with oil stains, very dusty areas or locations in need of increased disinfection, such as pets' favourite
places) may need to be cleaned for longer and more thoroughly or repeatedly.

You should avoid long cleaning times for lacquered and glazed surfaces because the hot steam
could melt the coating and damage the floor material. Do not use the appliance on heavily worn
floor surfaces that are not properly protected against moisture. Take care not to push the mop over
the power cable when cleaning. Do not leave the appliance switched on and resting on the floor
when it is not being used for cleaning.
3. After finishing your cleaning (or even if taking a short break) you should stop the steam flow by turning the
steam flow control knob clockwise and then remove the power cable from the mains wall socket. The steam
head should be placed on a heat and moisture resistant surface of plastic or stone until it cools down.
4. If the volume of steam coming from the appliance is no longer sufficient for cleaning, you should check
to see if the water tank has emptied. Before refilling the water tank, turn the steam flow control knob
to the closed position and switch off the appliance.
Always wash and dry the mop (part no.14) after cleaning. The mop will eventually become
dirty and worn, depending on the intensity and frequency of use. The manufacturer's warranty
does not cover the replacement of these mops.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Warning! Always turn the steam flow control knob clockwise into the closed
position and remove the power cable from the mains socket before cleaning
the appliance. Start cleaning ONLY after the appliance has cooled. Never immerse
the appliance in water or place it under running water.
• After the appliance has cooled down, pour out the water and place the appliance on a heat-proof surface.
Connect the power cable to the mains socket and open the steam flow control when the lamp turns green.
Wait for all the steam to escape, then remove the power cable from the mains socket. Allow the appliance
to cool down again.
• Clean the outside cover of the appliance with a damp, soft, lint-free cloth and then wipe the surfaces again
with a dry lint-free cloth. Take care not to allow any moisture inside the cover.
• Remove the cleaning mop from the appliance after use. Wash it thoroughly with detergent and water.
• Make sure the appliance and the cleaning mop are completely dry before storing them or using them again.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents. Never use solvents (including acetone, benzene or petrol)
to clean the appliance because these materials could dissolve the plastic cover and damage the internal
components.
