General Notes:

Using Steam on Delicate Materials
Always check the suitability of materials before steam
cleaning. Steam is being generated at temperatures in
excess of 212ºF (100ºC). Do not use on any surfaces
that cannot withstand this temperature. Always test
a small area of the material, preferably an area that
is normally out of view. Do not soak materials being
cleaned. Only a light application of steam is required.
See below for more information on steam cleaning.
DO NOT attempt to use the steam plate
included with this unit as a cleaning
device. The steam plate is designed for
wallpaper removal only. This unit is not
recommended to be used on self-adhesive
vinyl tiles.
Pressurized steam may bounce back off
cleaning surface.
• Using the cleaning accessories generally require less
water than wallpaper removal. Using less water will
decrease time it takes for the unit to make steam.
• Activate the trigger as needed for sufficient steam
supply. Use the soft bristles to brush away dirt,
grease, unwanted dried paint, etc. DO NOT over-
scrub the surface unless you are cleaning tiles or
stone.
• Use only clean tap water or distilled water when
using the steamer. No detergents or any other
additives are needed.
• When cleaning upholstery or clothing, DO NOT soak
the material. Try cleaning an inconspicuous area
that is normally not in view and wait 24 hours before
checking whether the material has been affected.
If material has been adversely affected, DO NOT
cONTiNue!
