Additional Safety Information
WARNING: Never modify the product or any part of it.
Damage or personal injury couldresult.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller
the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity
of the cable, that is, 16gauge has more capacity than
18gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When
using more than one extension to make up the total length,
be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
lower the gauge number, the heavier thecord.
SAFETY WARNINGS
AND INSTRUCTIONS:
POLARIZED PLUGS
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This
equipment must be used with a suitable polarized 2 wire or 3
wire extension cord. Polarized connections will fit together only
one way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the extension
cord has large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not
fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, obtain a suitable extension cord. If the extension cord
does not fit fully into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change the tool plug or
extension cord in anyway.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close
door on cord, pull cord around sharp corners or expose cord
to heatedsurfaces.
• Do not use appliance in an enclosed space filled with vapor
given off by oil-based paint thinner, some moth-proofing
substances, flammable dust, or other explosive or toxicvapors.
• Do not use on leather, wax polished furniture or floors,
synthetic fabrics, velvet or other delicate, steam-
sensitivematerials.
• Do not use on any unsealed hard surfaces or painted
surfaces. Additionally, on surfaces that have been treated
with wax or some no-wax floors, the sheen may be removed
by the heat and steam action. It is always recommended
to test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before
proceeding. We also recommend that you check the use and
care instructions from the flooror surface manufacturer.
• Never put de-scaling, aromatic, alcoholic or detergent
products into the steam cleaner, as this may damage it or
make it unsafe foruse.
• If the circuit breaker activates while using the steam function,
discontinue product use immediately and contact the customer
support center. (Beware of the risk of electrical shock.)
• The appliance emits very hot steam to sanitize the area of
use. This means that the steam floor head and cleaning
pads get very hot duringuse.
• Always wear suitable shoes when using your steam cleaner
and when changing the accessories on your steam cleaner.
Do not wear slippers or open-toedfootwear.
• Steam may escape from the appliance duringuse.
