USAGE SUGGESTIONS FOR STEAM CLEANER ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Exterior Areas
To clean inside your car, use the floor
brush with a terry cloth towel attached to
clean upholstery and interior areas just as
in the home. You should not expose the
bristles to leather - use only the brush with
the terry cloth towel attached. For
detailing the wheels, use the concentrator
and the detail brush. Exterior windows
are cleaned best by applying the vapor
with the concentrator and following with a
paper towel.
To clean bicycles, use the detail brush.
To clean equipment, use the detail brush,
depending on the surface area. Finish by
wiping down with a towel.
Hints
ALWAYS FINISH CLEANING BY WIPING
DOWN THE CLEANED SURFACE WITH
A TOWEL
The steam cleaner has many uses
that have not been mentioned. This
was meant only to give you a general
idea of what can be achieved with the
unit. However, the ways in which to
use the attachments and brushes are
in most cases universal. It is most
helpful to always have a terry cloth
towel or paper towel ready to use for
removal of moisture and residue.
100% white cotton towels work best.
You can clean the brushes with your
steam cleaner. To clean the floor
brush, hold at one end and use the
concentrator to simply blow off dirt
into the garbage can. When cleaning
the detail brush, use a pair of pliers to
hold and blow dirt as above or place
in the basket of your dishwasher.
Note: Wipe with a towel immediately
before the cleaned area dries. When
cleaning the oven, use the detail
brush to clean around the elements
and drip trays. Use the detail brush
for cracks, crevices, and hard to reach
areas.
Refrigerator - Use the concentrator 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 to get
into all the nooks and crannies. Mold
stains around door gaskets can be
removed with the detail brush.
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.
To clean counter tops, use the floor
brush with a terry cloth towel
attached. For heavily soiled areas,
use the brush without the terry cloth
towel first in order to loosen the
debris, then follow with a terry cloth
towel attached to finish.
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another appliance on the same socket
(circuit) as the steam cleaner
2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, an extension cord rated a minimum
of 15 ampere, 14 gage cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Care should be taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be pulled or
tripped over.
3. Do not leave unattended when the system is connected to a power
supply/electrical outlet.
WARNING:
This appliance is equipped with a grounded-
type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This plug will only fit into an
electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If
the plug should fail to fit the outlet, contact an electrician to replace
the outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the
grounding pin, part of the 3-prong plug.
Artificial Plants
Use the concentrator without a brush
attached to blow off the dust and dirt.
Clothing
A vapor cleaning system is excellent for
removing wrinkles from fabrics. Simply
“vaporize” the surface from a distance
(12”-18”) The dry vapor removes wrinkles
without leaving the fabric wet like ordinary
fabric steamers do.
CAUTION:
Always drain condensed water from hose
before use or if unit has been left idle for a period of time. To
drain hose, direct nozzle into an appropriate container or sink and
depress hand grip steam trigger. Once hose has been drained,
normal use may be resumed. Never direct nozzle
towards people, animals or plants.
Nicotine and Tar
Nicotine and tar dissolves at high
temperatures and becomes a light yellow
oil that has the consistency of sewing
machine oil. When the nicotine/tar film is
touched by a hot terry cloth towel clipped
over the floor brush, it immediately
dissolves and flows into the towel. You
can remove it from flat surfaces as fast as
you can move the brush over the surface.
Removing Wax, Tar, Etc.
Many stains are only stuck on the surface
of materials and can be easily and quickly
removed by “blowing” excess material
away from the surface from the side. This
is accomplished by using the
concentrator. Hold the terry cloth towel to
the side to catch the loose residue as it is
blown by the concentrator. Note: Always
vacuum any loose residue off the surface
before you apply vapor to it.
