Upholstery
Use the garment diffuser head with the
cleaning bonnet. Use fast, light strokes,
avoid getting the fabric wet. Be patient
with stubborn spots; work on a spot
gently for no more than a minute at a
time, then wait five minutes for the area
to dry and repeat. Use circular
movements or back-and-forth and side-
to-side movements to get all sides of
surface fibers. Finish with a brushing in
one direction that will give the fabric a
uniform appearance.
Caution: Always determine the color-
fastness of any fabric - especially with
reds or blues - by taking a clean, moist,
warm towel and gently rubbing a small
area as far down on the back or other out
of the way place on the furniture as
possible. If color comes off on the towel,
you may need to have the piece dry
cleaned.
USAGE SUGGESTIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL
PORTABLE STEAMER
Window, Glass Surfaces and Mirrors
Use the window squeegee. Work with the
steam on using top to bottom movements.
Use the squeegee with the steam to clear
the water from the glass. To do this without
leaving streaks, use lateral movements
from the top to the bottom of the surface.
Fiberglass or Stainless Steel Surfaces
Use the detail brush. Slowly move the
brush over the surface to be cleaned.
The steam will emulsify the dirt and
grease on the surface. Follow behind
with a 100% cotton towel to remove
excess moisture and residue.
Tip: An old idea for polishing stainless
steel is to wipe it down with seltzer soda
water after it is cleaned.
Soap Scum
Soap scum dissolves almost immediately
under a combination of heat and
moisture. Rinse the surface with a small
amount of water afterwards.
Note: Soap scum sometimes will develop
a hard surface from waterborne minerals.
If this is the case, use the detail brush to
break up this surface - or spray or wipe
first with lemon, vinegar or seltzer soda
water to soften the minerals.
Moving too slowly can dry out the soap
scum and cause it to granulate on the
surface. The surface will have a gritty
feel. If this happens, apply vapor to the
surface with the detail brush again and re-
clean.
Blinds
Use the detail brush to clean blinds.
Move the brush over the surface, allowing
enough time for the vapor to penetrate.
Work quickly on PVC blinds. Test for
color fastness on fabric blinds before
using.
Bathroom Areas
To clean the bathtub or shower area, use
the detail brush for grout, shower door
tracks, hard to get areas and heavily
soiled areas. The window squeegee will
be the most efficient way to clean the rest
of the area. Allow plenty of time for the
heat to penetrate the surface. This is
especially helpful in the shower area if
there is tile or grout.
To clean sanitary fixtures, use
concentrator nozzle with or without detail
brush.
To clean the sink and faucets, use detail
brush.
Clothing
A steam cleaning system is excellent for
removing wrinkles from fabrics. Simply
“vaporize” the surface from a distance
(12”-16”) The dry steam removes wrinkles
without leaving the fabric wet like ordinary
fabric steamers do.
Refrigerator - Use the concentrator
nozzle alone 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 detail brush on the
concentrator nozzle to get into all the
nooks and crannies.
To clean microwaves or other small
appliances use the detail brush for small
areas.
Note: When cleaning small electrical
appliances always unplug them from
outlet before cleaning.
