FILLING CLEAN WATER TANK

Be careful when removing water fill safety cap. Even if the cap can be unscrewed, the steam cleaner may still be hot, especially the metal ring.

IMPORTANT: Do not add cleaning solution to the water tank.

1. Place the steam cleaner on a level surface. If you fill the water tank during or after use, see "Refilling Water During Operation" instructions. After you have ensured the steam cleaner has cooled and pressure has been released, the water fill safety cap should turn freely for removal. Unscrew the water fill safety cap counter-clockwise (Fig. 3).
2. Add 300ml of water into the measuring jug and pour the water into the water tank (Fig. 4). (Max. capacity of the tank is 300ml . Do not overfill the water tank.)
3. Overfilling may cause excess water to be emitted from the steam cleaner. When refilling the steam cleaner, make sure to empty all remaining water from the water tank before refilling.
4. Re-install the water fill safety cap in a clockwise direction and tighten until it is completely sealed.
5. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE SAFETY CAP.

THE CLEANING AGENT REGULATOR

(When using cleaning agents for different types of surface.)

1. The cleaning agent regulator controls the amount of cleaning solution that is added to the steam.
2. It does not adjust the amount of steam, only the amount of the cleaning solution.
3. If you wish to clean with steam alone, simply turn the regulator to the "OFF" position. Now every time you press the steam trigger, you will release steam alone.
4. If you wish to use the cleaning agent, simply turn the regulator to the desired setting. Now when you press the steam trigger, the steam cleaner will release the amount of solution that is indicated on the regulator as well as steam.

1. Press the power button. The power indicator lights up red.
2. If the indicator does not light up, check the "Troubleshooting" section for more details.
3. The steam cleaner should take between 3-5 minutes to heat up, the indicator lights up green.
4. When operating the steam cleaner, make sure to keep it levelled during use. Angling the steam cleaner too far will cause water to leak from the cleaner.

WARNING: Do not operate the steam cleaner without any water in the water tank.

WARNING: If you want to avoid steam discharge from the appliance for safety reasons, use the steam release button lock. By moving the lock lever to the "locked" position, it will not be possible to press the steam discharge button. To release this button again, slide the lock lever back to the "unlocked" position.

1. Unplug power cable from wall outlet.
2. If the water tank is still under pressure, the cap will be raised upwards and cannot be unscrewed. As soon as the steam cleaner cools down and the pressure in the appliance drops, the cap retracts and can be unscrewed.
3. It takes about 7-10 minutes to the steam cleaner to cool down, the safety cap will drop totally. If it does not drop after 10 minutes, release the remaining pressure by pressing the steam discharge button again. Turn clockwise to unscrew the filler cap and remove the cap gently. DO NOT EXCEED THE FILLING OF THE FILLING HOLE. Allow the steam cleaner to cool for another 5 minutes. After the steam cleaner has cooled down and the pressure is reduced in the appliance, the filler cap will easily release. Fully unscrew the filler cap.
4. Pour all the remaining water to prevent the tank from overfilling and pour 300ml of water into the steam cleaner tank using a measuring jug. (The maximum capacity of the water tank is 300ml . Do not overfill the reservoir, leave a smaller gap at the top.)
5. Re-install the water fill safety cap in a clockwise direction and tighten until it is completely sealed.
6. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE SAFETY CAP.
