OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION FOR USE
WARNING: ALWAYS unplug the appliance prior to any type 
of maintenance on the unit. As all the appliances are 
thoroughly tested before sale, there may be some residual 
water in the boiler.
ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
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 3 1/4 cups 
(.8 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).
When there is no more steam, fill the tank again. To avoid 
damage, never use the steam gun without water. If the tank is 
full and no steam is sprayed, have the appliance checked by 
the manufacturer.  Always switch off the appliance after use, 
pull out the plug and drain any residual water from water tank.
NOZZLE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
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.
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.
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 
from the bottom of the appliance.

Important User Information
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.
