Please note that this steam cleaner has a “flow through injection” type boiler  
and is not a pressurized system. It will take approximately 45-90 seconds for  
the steam injector to heat up and the “steam ready light” to go off. Once the  
steam ready light has gone off, push the steam switch on the handgrip to the  
“On” position (I) in order to start the steam flow. Steam power will steadily  
increase during the first four (4) minutes of use, after which time steam output  
will stabilize. Some steam will condense around the floor brush when in use  
and will cause hard surfaces to become wet during the cleaning process, this

amperage may overheat. Care should be  
taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be  
pulled or tripped over.  
Note: We recommend that you drain  
the water tank after every use.

is connected to a power supply/electrical  
outlet.  
Tips On How To Use Your  
System  
Water  
• Using scented fabric softener while  
washing the towels will cause the  
scent to be released into the air when  
using the towels with your steam  
Caution: Upon initial use, the steam will be mixed with water,  
hot enough to scald. Ensure that the floor brush is  
resting on the floor or the hose handgrip is directed  
away from user when steam switch is turned on. Never  
direct the nozzle or brush end of the unit toward  
yourself or anyone near you.  
Use tap water for all your cleaning  
needs, however, if you live in an area  
with hard water, use  
system.  
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors  
Use the floor brush with a 100% cotton  
terry cloth attached, ( see page 7 for  
details). Move the brush slowly in back  
and forth motions. When the towel is  
soiled, you can turn the towel over or  
replace it with a clean towel. If you are  
working on a very dirty area, we  
recommend that you move the brush  
over the area slowly, several times. If it  
is a wood floor, do NOT leave the unit  
stationary for any length of time to avoid  
heat or moisture build-up in the wood.  
By cleaning with the towel over the  
brush, you will not affect the shine on the  
floor.  
To Clean Waxed Floors: Install a clean  
towel(s) on the floor brush, work quickly.  
The towel will absorb the dirt but not  
remove the wax.  
Vinyl Floors: Do not allow heat to buildup  
in any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it  
enough to affect its texture. Work quickly  
on vinyl. Use two (2) towels on floor brush.  
demineralized/distilled water.  
Important: Do NOT add cleaning  
solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any  
other chemicals to the water used in  
this appliance. Use tap water or  
distilled/purified water if the tap  
water in your area is very hard.

Temperature  
• The vapor temperature at the tip of  
the nozzle is between 220°F and 240°F.  
• The temperature of the vapor falls to  
100 °F at a distance of 10 inches from  
the nozzle.  
CAUTION: A towel wrapped around the  
brush can become hot enough to burn.  
Make sure that you let the towel cool off  
before touching it or changing it.  
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  
Using Towels  
Note: We strongly recommend the  
use of two (2) 100 % cotton towels  
layered one on top of the other.  
• For best results use 100% cotton white  
terry cloth towels.  
• Use correct size (8” x 17”) of towel to  
allow you to wrap the towel over the  
ends of the brush and clip it under the  
spring loaded towel clips.  
• The purpose of using towels is to  
absorb the moisture and dirt being  
removed. Always use dry towels. A  
wet towel will smear the dirt.  
• Wash towels with strong detergent  
and bleach.  
Tile Floors: For tile and marble floors only,  
if there is an area of the floor which is  
excessively dirty, you may remove the  
towels and agitate the area with the brush  
bristles directly. Do not let the area dry.  
Wipe immediately with a clean cloth. Re-  
clean with brush and towels in place.

Attaching a Towel to the  
This appliance cleans many types of hard surfaces with the force of steam without any  
need for chemical cleaning products Obviously, it is also the ideal solution in particular  
situations such as removing wall-paper, washing windows and degreasing many hard  
surfaces in and around the home.  
Floor Brush  
100% white terry cloth towel can be fitted  
on this brush, so as to absorb the dirt and  
protect delicate surfaces.  
Important: Please note that bristles may  
break through thin towels. We recommend  
that two (2) towels, laid one on top of the  
other be used. This will ensure that the  
brush bristles do not break through and  
that the towels will be sufficiently absorbent  
and retain as much dirt as possible.  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION  
Before using the appliance make sure that the materials or the surfaces to be  
cleaned can withstand a temperature of 212° F (100ºC). The steamer is  
equipped with a safety device that, in the case of a fault, vents the steam

of maintenance on the unit. As all the appliances are  
thoroughly tested before sale, there may be some residual  
water in the boiler.

“On” position, wait until the “Steam  
Ready” light(Red) located on the unit has  
turned off.  
ASSEMBLY & OPERATION  
2.  
Setting this switch to the “On” position will  
start the flow of steam.  
To connect the tube and the accessories (fig. 1), insert part  
(A) in part (B) turning this slightly to facilitate insertion. Make  
sure that key (C) is securely fastened in the hole provided (D).  
Open the reservoir cover (1) and pour in 6.3 cups  
(1.5 liters) of tap water or distilled water if your tap water is  
particularly hard. Never add cleaning fluids. Close the  
reservoir cover (1). Before plugging in the appliance, make  
sure that you have assembled the tubes and accessories  
correctly and the steam switch on handgrip is “Off”. Press the  
on/off switch (2) to “On”; the steam ready light (3) will come  
on; when the light (3) switches off (after about 1 minute), you  
can start to use the appliance. To spray steam, simply press  
the steam switch button on the handle (6) (fig. 2).  
CAUTION:  
Upon initial use, the steam will be mixed with  
water, hot enough to scald. Ensure that the  
floor brush is resting on the floor or the hose  
handgrip is directed away from user when  
steam switch is turned on. Never direct the  
nozzle or brush end of the unit toward yourself  
or anyone near you.

Important User Information  
Glass & Tile Squeegee  
Please note that this steam cleaner has a “flow through  
injection” type boiler and is not a pressurized system. It  
will take approximately 45-90 seconds for the steam  
injector to heat up and the “steam ready light” to go off.  
Once the steam ready light has gone off, push the steam  
switch on the handgrip to the “On” position (I) in order to  
start the steam flow. Steam power will steadily increase  
during the first four (4) minutes of use, after which time  
steam output will stabilize. Some steam will condense  
around the floor brush when in use and will cause hard  
surfaces to become wet during the cleaning process, this  
is normal.  
This attachment is very useful for cleaning  
large windows, plastic material, ceramic,  
tiled surfaces, marble planes, etc.  
Apply steam abundantly, rub with the  
spongy side of squeegee and remove with  
the glass wiping rubber located at the front  
edge of squeegee.  
NOZZLE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS  
Detail Cleaning Attachment  
Your steamer should not normally require cleaning, however,  
should you notice a marked decrease in steam output it may  
be necessary to remove mineral deposit build-up from the  
nozzle orifice. First ensure that there is water in the tank.  
If tank is empty, fill with water, (we recommend using purified  
or mineral water), then re-start unit noting whether steam  
output is normal. If steam output is still low, follow these cleaning instructions:  
1. Unplug steam cleaner from wall outlet.  
This attachment is very useful for cleaning  
surfaces that are difficult to reach. It is ideal for  
radiators, door and window jambs, shutters and  
sanitary fixtures. The following parts can be  
applied to this attachment:  
2. Use a small diameter stiff metal wire such as a straightened metal paperclip  
and carefully insert the end of the wire into the nozzle orifice.  
3. Move wire back and forth several times to remove any deposits.  
4. Reconnect appliance to power outlet, switch on and note steam output.  
5. If steam performance does not improve, repeat steps #1 through #4.
