Using the floor brusl

Step 1 Place the extension tubes on the handle of the fl exible tube. To connect the extension tubes to the handle or to each other press the button so it fits into the hole. To disconnect, press the button again and pull the two parts apart

NOTE: Connect the floor brush to the tubes by using the angle adaptor.

Step 2 When the angle adapter isn't attached to the floor brush, keep the brush with the bristles up in your left hand. Turn the angle adaptor downward and place it in the opening at the back of the floor brush. Now turn the angle adaptor 180^

Step 3 Place the plug in the socket. To heat up cold water will take about 8-10 minutes. When using hot water the heat up time will shorten. Attach a cloth to the floor brush. You should use a white terry cloth to absorb dirt and to protect delicate surfaces. This can also be used to clean vertical surfaces.

IMPORTANT: when the cloth is too thin, the bristles may break through the cloth. When you don't have a thick cloth available use two cloths.

ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES TO THE FLEXIBLE TUBE

Squeeled

Very useful for cleaning large windows, plastic material, ceramics, tiles or marble surfaces. How to use? Place the squeezegee on the handle or use the extension tubes for hard to reach places. Steam abundantly, clean with a soft spong and remove excess water and dirt with the squeezegee.

ATTENTION: prevent sudden temperature changes when cleaning the windows to prevent glass breaking.

Concentrator

Very effcient for cleaning hard to reach places. Ideal for radiators, doorposts, roll down shutters or sanitary fixtures. The concentrator fi ts directly on the handle and ca also be used with the extension tubes

Detail brushes

Place the detail brushes on the concentrator, which can be connected directly on the

handle or on the extension tubes. Can be used to clean seams of tiles, ceramics or marble.

TIPS

Water

• Use tap water.
• When tap water is too hard, use distilled water when you clean steam clean materials with a light colour to prevent stains caused by scale.

IMPORTANT: Don't add detergent, perfumes, oils or other chemicals to the water. Use tap water or distilled water when the tap water is too hard.

Temperature

The temperature of the steam at the end of the concentrator is about 104^ to 116^ . At a distance of 25cm from the end of the concentrator the temperature is about 38^ .

Use of cloths

• Use white clothes of 100% pure cotton terry cloth for the best result.
• Take a white terry cloth: dimensions about 20 cm × 42.5 cm
• Place the floor brush on the cloth and fold the cloth around both smallest sides of the brush. Make sure the long sides of the brush will not be covered by the cloth.
• Attach the cloth under the hooks on top of the brush.
• The use of a cloth is necessary to absorb moisture and dirt. Always use dry cloths. Wash the cloths with a strong detergent and bleach.
• When using a wash softener during washing, the scent of the wash softener will be spread during steaming.

ATTENTION : The cloth around the brush can become very hot and cause burns. Only touch the cloth when it has cooled down.

Working efficiently

• Clean vertical surfaces always from the top down, this way the dirty water cannot soil already cleaned surfaces.
• Avoid moving the brush back and forth during cleaning.
• Use the detail brushes first for cleaning hard to reach places and corners
• Remove dirt as quickly as possible, otherwise it will dry out and get stuck to the surface again.

ADVICE CONCERNING THE USE OF THE STEAM CLEANER

wood, vinyl and marble floors

Use the floor brush with a white cloth. Move the brush as you are mopping. When the cloth is soiled, allow to cool, then turn the cloth over or replace it with a clean cloth.

If you are working on a very dirty area, you can move the brush over the area slowly, several times. If it is a wood floor, move fast to avoid heat or moisture build up in the wood. By cleaning with the cloth over the brush, you will not affect the shine on the floor.

To strip wax

Use floor brush for open areas, detail brush for corners or tight areas – no towel, slow strokes. Work a small area at a time – remove the emulsified wax from the floor. Who all of the wax has been stripped, immediately clean the floor and brushes with water before residue has a chance to harden on them. Go back over the stripped area with the floor brush with a towel to remove any remaining residue before waxing

To clean waxed floor

Wrap clean towel around the floor brush, brush quickly. This will cause the dirt to be removed, but not the wax.

Vinyl floor

Do not allow the heat to build up on any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it enough to affect its texture. Work fast on vinyl

Tile floor

Use the concentrator with the detail brush attached to an extension. Have the floor brush with cloth attached ready as well. Clean the grout between the tiles with the detail brush. Remove the detail brush and attach the floor brush, move the brush across the floor to clean the tile and remove excess moisture and residue. For areas of tile that are very dirty, remove the towel and agitate with the brush. Do not let the area dry before you wipe with a towel.

Spot cleaning (carpets)

Use the concentrator with or without the detail brush. Move slowly over the soiled area, allowing the steam to penetrate. Agitate with detail brush or clean towel. Dab the spot with the towel (do not rub). Repeat as necessary to remove stain. Vacuum only after the carpet has completely dried.

Always test colour fastness of carpet in an inconspicuous area before cleaning. If your Ultra Steam Shark II fails to remove stubborn stains a commercially available carpet shampoo may be required.

Do not add cleaning solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to the water used in this appliance as this may damage the unit or make it unsafe for use.

Upholstery

Use the floor brush attached directly to the hand grip with a clean white terry cloth. Use fast, light strokes to avoid getting the fabric wet. Be patient with stubborn spots. Work on a spot gently for no more than a minute at a time, then wait five minutes for

the area to dry and repeat. Use circular movements or back-and-forth and side-to-side movements to get all sides of the surface fi bres then blot with a towel. Finish by brushing in one direction to will give the fabric a uniform appearance.

Caution : always determine the colour-fastness on any fabric-especially with reds or blues- by taking a clean, moist, hand towel and gently rubbing a small area as far down on the back or other out of the way place on the furniture as possible. If colour comes off on the towel, you may need to have the piece dry cleaned.

Window, glass surfaces and mirrors

Use the dual edge glass and tile squeegee. Work with the vapor jet on using the top to bottom movements. Use the squeegee with the vapor off to clean the water from the glass. To do this without leaving streaks, use lateral movements from the top to the bottom of the surface.

fi berglass or stainless steel surface;

Use the floor brush or detail brush. Slowly move the brush over the surface to be cleaned. The vapor will emulsify the dirt and grease on the surface. Follow behind with a terry cloth towel over the brush to remove excess moisture and residue.

TIF: an old idea for polishing stainless steel is to wipe it down with seltzer soda water after it is cleaned.

Soap scum

Soap scum dissolves almost immediately under a combination of heat and moisture. Rinse the surface with a small amount of water afterwards or go back over it once more with a clean terry cloth towel.

NOTE: soap scum sometimes will develop a hard surface from waterborne minerals. If this is the case, use the floor brush with no towel first to break up this surface – c spray or wipe first with lemon, vinegar or seltzer soda water to soften the minerals

Moving too slowly can dry out the soap scum and cause it to granulate on the surface. The surface will have a gritty feel. If this happens, apply vapor to the surface with the open brush again and re-clean.

Garden furniture

Use any of the brushes depending on the surface area. Work quickly when cleaning resin outdoor furniture. Finish by wiping with a towel.

Blinds

Use the detail brush to clean blinds. Move the brush over the surface, allowing enough time for the vapor to penetrate. Work quickly on PVC blinds. Test for colour fastness on fabric blinds before using. Finish by wiping with a towel.

Bathroom areas

To clean the bathtub or shower area, use the detail brush for grout, shower door tracks, hard to get areas and heavily soiled areas. The dual edge window/tile squeezegee will be the most effcient way to clean the rest of the area. Allow plenty of time for the heat to penetrate the surface. This is especially helpful in the shower area if there is tile or grout. Wipe with towel

Removal of soap scum on tile, grout, and shower doors is also easier with the steam cleaner

To clean sanitary fixtures, use the concentrator with or without detail brush. Use a terry cloth towel or paper towel to wipe up excess moisture and residue.

To clean the sink and faucets, use detail brush then finish by wiping with a towel. Exterior areas

To clean inside your car, use the floor brush with a terry cloth towel attached to clean upholstery and interior areas, just as in the home. You should not expose the bristles to leather – use only the brush with the terry cloth attached. For Detailing the wheels, use the concentrator and the detail brush. Exterior windows are cleaned best by applying the vapor with the concentrator and following with a paper towel.

To clean bicycles, use the detail brush

To clean equipment, use the detail brush, depending on the surface area. Finish by wiping down with a towel.

Artificial plant

Use the concentrator with a brush attached to blow off the dust and dirt.

Clothing

A vapor cleaning system is excellent for removing wrinkles from fabric. Simply "vaporize" the surface from a distance (30-45 cm). The dry vapor removes wrinkles without leaving the fabric wet like ordinary fabric steamers do.

Nicotine and tar

Nicotine and tar dissolves at high temperatures and becomes a light yellow oil that has the consistency of sewing machine oil. When the nicotine/tar fi lm is touched by a hot terry cloth clipped over the floor brush, it immediately dissolves and flows into the towel. You can remove it from flat surfaces as fast as you can move the brush over the surface.

Removing wax, tar, etc.

Many stains are only stuck on the surface of materials and can be easily and quickly removed by "blowing" excess material away from the surface from the side. This is

accomplished by using the concentrator. Hold the terry cloth to the side to catch the loose residue as it is blown by the concentrator.

NOTE : always vacuum any loose residue off the surface before you apply vapor to it.

Refrigerator

Use the concentrator to blow away dirt in the ice machine and on door seals. The vapor will not dry out or crack the seals as chemicals often do. Can openers and other kitchen equipment can be easily cleaned with the detail brush to get into all the nooks and crannies. Mould stains around door gaskets can be removed with the detail brush.

NOTE : when cleaning small electrical appliances always unplug them from outlet before cleaning. To clean counter tops, use the floor brush with a terry cloth attached For heavily soiled areas, use the brush without the terry cloth towel first in order to loosen the debris, then follow with a terry cloth attached to finish

NOTE : Wipe with a towel immediately before the cleaned area dries. When cleaning the oven, use the detail brush to clean around the elements and drip trays. Use the detail brush for cracks, crevices and hard to reach areas.

Hints

The Ultra Steam Shark II has many uses that have not been mentioned. This was meant only to give you a general idea of what can be achieved with the unit. It is most helpful to always have a terry cloth or paper towel ready to use for removal of moisture and residue. 100% white cotton towels work best.

You can clean the brushes with your steam cleaner. To clean the floor brush, hold a one end and use the concentrator to simply blow off dirt into the garbage can. When cleaning the detail brush, use a pair of pliers to hold and blow dirt as above or place in the basket of your dishwasher.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

If you consistently use demineralized or distilled water, cleaning the tank is unnecessary.

RINSING OUT THE STEAM CLEANER

Normally, a periodic rinse of your Ultra Steam Shark II will free it from deposits. This is recommended every 10 - 15 tankfulls, to free up any scale deposits from the tank. Fill the boiler with water and shake the cleaner vigorously. Tilt the cleaner upside down to empty the boiler of water and any scale deposits.

DESCALING YOUR STEAM CLEANER

DO230SF

If the tap water in your area contains a high level of calcium deposits and you have been using tap water to do your steam cleaning you should descale your unit after 10 - 15 tankfulls.

Step 1 Unplug the steam cleaner from the power source before you descale the boiler. Allow to cool

Step 2 Fill the boiler with 1 part vinegar and 4 parts water and leave overnight or for a period of approximately 8 hours. Do not screw the safety/finer cap onto the steam cleaner while you are descending the boiler. Do not use the steam cleaner while descending solution is inside the boiler

Step 3 After the period of soaking, turn the steam cleaner upside down to empty solution from the boiler. Due to the fact that a small amount of solution will be left in the boiler, it is necessary to rinse the boiler out with clean water 2 or 3 times. Your steam cleaner is now ready for use

ATTACHING THE SHOULDER STRAF

Using the detachable shoulder strap allows for greater freedom of movement when both hands are needed for various cleaning tasks.

To attach the shoulder strap to the steam cleaner, simply snap the shoulder strap hooks onto the connection rings on the unit body.

When using the Ultra Steam Shark II with the shoulder strap, avoid rocking or tilting the unit excessively as this may cause water to enter the hose and be discharged along with the steam.
