PRODUCT OVERVIEW
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
SELECTING ATTACHMENTS
Steam Jet Nozzle
Focuses the flow of steam from the main nozzle. Attach to the main nozzle and use
it to connect the squeegee or any of the brushes.
Squeegee
Connects directly to the steam jet nozzle. Use the squeegee to clean glass and
windows.
Gap Brush
Connects directly to the steam jet nozzle. Use the gap brush to clean the gap
between tiles, floors, and windows.
Triangular Brush
Connects directly to the steam jet nozzle. Use the triangular brush to scrub tough
dirt and scrus from surfaces.
Nylon Brush
Connects directly to the steam jet nozzle. Use the nylon brush when extra scrubbing
is required.
Brass Brush
Connects directly to the steam jet nozzle. Use the brass brush to remove tough
stuck-on grease and grime from durable surfaces.
NOTE: Scratchable surfaces like stainless steel may be scratched or damaged
by the brass bristles. Use care in deciding when to use the brass utility brush. If
you are unsure about using this brush, it is recommended that you test a small,
inconspicuous spot before proceeding.
Mop Head
Connects to the extension pole that attaches to the main nozzle. The mop head and
microfiber pads are ideal for these hard floor surfaces:
Sealed Hardwood Linoleum Marble
Stained Concrete Glazed Ceramic Vinyl
Sealed Laminate Granite Tile
NOTES:
Do not use on unsealed hardwood or unglazed ceramic surfaces as heat and
moisture can warp flooring.
Take care when steaming sealed hardwood floors as prolonged exposure to steam
can cause damage and discoloration. To avoid this, keep the mop head in constant
motion while in use.
Steam may remove the sheen from some floors that have been treated with wax.
Extremely rough textured floors may tear or damage the microfiber pads.

USAGE
USAGE
OPERATING YOUR STEAM CLEANER
Filling the Boiler
1. Place the steam cleaner on a flat, level surface.
2. Ensure that the power light is o and the power cord is unplugged.
NOTE: If the unit has been in use, allow the unit to cool for 20 minutes and press
and hold the steam button to release all steam before removing the boiler cap.
Failure to do so may result in burns from escaping steam.
3. Carefully unscrew and remove the boiler cap. Drain any remaining water from the
boiler into a sink or tub.
NOTE: The boiler should be emptied after each use to prevent mineral build-up
and overfilling.
4. Use the fill cup to fill the boiler.
NOTES:
To prevent mineral build-up, the use of distilled or demineralized water is highly
recommended.
When filling the boiler, use the water funnel to prevent water from spilling onto
the unit and damaging electrical components.
5. Replace the boiler cap and ensure that it is tightly in place before using the steam
cleaner.
Use the chart below to determine how much water you need to add to the boiler. Do
not exceed the 52 fl. oz. (1,500 mL) fill limit.
Steam Cleaning
Before turning on your steam cleaner, make sure your desired attachment is already
connected to the unit.
1. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. For first-time use, remove the plastic
plug cover from the plug.
2. Turn on the power switch to power on the unit. The light will turn red to indicate
the unit is heating (this will take between three (3) to 10 minutes). The light will
turn green to indicate the unit is ready for use.
3. Direct the nozzle (and any connected accessories) toward the surface you wish
to clean and press the steam button. To sanitize surfaces, hold the nozzle about
½ in. (1.25 cm) from the surface for at least five (5) seconds to ensure you have
eliminated germs and bacteria.
NOTE: Make sure the nozzle and any connected accessories are pointed away
from yourself, other people, pets, and plants before pressing the steam button.
Water Amount Duration of Steam
17 fl. oz. (500 mL) Approx. 15 min
35 fl. oz. (1,000 mL) Approx. 30 min
52 fl. oz. (1,500 mL) Approx. 45 min

USAGE
USAGE
4. Hold the steam button for a continuous flow of steam or press the steam
lock switch to keep steam flowing continuously. The steam cleaner may
sputter a bit until it produces a consistent stream.
5. Use a slight back-and-forth motion over the area you wish to clean for
best results. Wipe the steamed area while it is still wet with a clean cloth to
remove the loosened dirt and grime. Use caution when wiping surfaces as
they may still be hot.
6. Once cleaning is complete, press the power button to turn o the unit and
unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Steam Mopping
Before turning on your steam cleaner, make sure the mop head and microfiber
pads are already connected to the unit. Refer to the list of compatible
flooring types in the “Selecting Attachments” section before using. It is
not recommended to sweep or vacuum hard floors before mopping. The
microfiber pad will absorb dirt and moisture, but some moisture may be left
on the floor after cleaning. Allow this moisture to air dry or direct a fan toward
the cleaned area.
1. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. For first time use, remove the
plastic plug cover from the plug.
2. Turn on the power switch to power on the unit. The light will turn red to
indicate the unit is heating (this will take between three (3) to 10 minutes).
The light will turn green to indicate the unit is ready for use.
3. Use a slight back-and-forth motion over the area you wish to clean for best
results. Work your way backwards over the floor in order to avoid walking
over freshly mopped areas.
4. To eectively eliminate germs and bacteria, repeatedly mop a small area of
roughly 3 ft. x 3 ft. (1 m x 1 m) for at least two (2) minutes.
5. Once cleaning is complete, press the power button to turn o the unit and
unplug the power cord from the outlet.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
Preparing for Storage
1. Turn o the steam cleaner and unplug the power cord.
2. Allow the unit to cool for at least 30 minutes.
3. Press and hold the steam button to release all remaining pressure.

Mineral Build-Up
Mineral build-up within your steam cleaner will reduce the ecacy of the unit.
The best way to minimize mineral build-up is to use distilled or demineralized
water in your steam cleaner. If you are unable to use distilled or demineralized
water, it is recommended to perform the procedure outlined below
approximately once a month to remove any mineral build-up.
1. Turn o the steam cleaner and unplug the power cord.
2. Allow the unit to cool for at least 30 minutes.
3. Press and hold the steam button to release all remaining pressure.
4. Remove all accessories from the unit.
5. Remove the boiler cap and drain any remaining water from the boiler.
6. Fill the measuring cup with 17 fl. oz. (500 mL) of distilled vinegar.
7. Carefully pour the vinegar into the boiler. Slowly shake or move the unit
around to agitate the vinegar.
8. Allow the unit to stand with the vinegar inside for at least 40 minutes.
9. Drain the vinegar from the boiler.
10. Rinse the boiler with fresh water and drain it. Repeat this step until the
odor of the vinegar dissipates.
11. Loosely replace the boiler cap and follow the steps under the section
“Preparing for Storage”.
