• Do not use on leather, wax polished furniture or floors, synthetic fabrics, velvet or other delicate, steam-sensitive materials.
• Do not use on any unsealed hard floor surfaces. Additionally, on surfaces that have been treated with wax or no-wax floors, the sheen may be removed by the heat and steam action. It is always recommended to test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding. It’s also recommended that you check the use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer.

• If the circuit breaker activates while using the steam function, discontinue product use immediately and contact the customer support centre. (Beware of the risk of electrical shock).
• The appliance emits very hot steam to sanitise the area of use. This means that the steam head and cleaning pads get very hot during use.

Caution: Always wear suitable shoes when using your steam mop and when changing the accessories on your steam mop. Do not wear slippers or open-toed footwear.

• The lid may become hot during use.
• Care should be taken when using this appliance. Do not touch any of the parts which may become hot during use.

Cleaning & Care

Be sure that the unit is disconnected from the power outlet when cleaning the unit.

Drain the remaining water in the tank and clean the tank after every use.

How to Decalcify the Water Tank Interior

To clean calcium deposits that build up inside the water tank, add one or two tablespoons of white vinegar to a full water tank, close the water tank cap and then shake the contents. Do not turn the steamer on.

How to Remove Limescale from the Unit

If your steam mop begins to produce steam more slowly than usual or stops producing steam, you may need to remove limescale. Limescale can develop over time on the metal parts and greatly affect mop performance.
It is necessary to remove limescale on a regular basis every 25-50 times you use a full tank of water or at least once a month, especially in areas with hard water.
The frequency of limescale removal depends upon the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the steam mop.

Method 1: Using Clean Needles

• Ensure that the power supply is disconnected.
• Use clean needles to remove any build-up of the limescale in the outlet, as shown below. Move and rotate the cleaning needle to clean the vents.
  

Method 2: Using a Cleaning Solution

• Prepare a solution of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 tap water and add to the water tank.
• Secure and position the unit to ensure steam released is aimed away from the floor or surrounding objects and surface. Plug the unit in, turn the unit ON by pressing the power switch and allow the unit to produce steam and check whether the vinegar/water solution is used up.
• Repeat the above procedure as many times as necessary until a normal steam flow rate is achieved.
• Fill the water tank with freshwater and rinse out.
• Fill the water tank with fresh water, attach to the unit and release steam through the system until the water tank is empty.
  

WARNING: Don't leave the steamer unattended during the limescale removal process and/or while in use.

NOTE: Perform a test cleaning on a suitable isolated area after each limescale removal to ensure that there is no debris left in the system. This product contains no serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing that requires disassembly other than cleaning must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.

Cleaning Microfiber Pad

• Machine washable on “warm” setting. Always use a mild detergent.
• For best care results, lay flat to dry.
• Important: Allow the steamer to fully cool down before performing any maintenance or troubleshooting checks.
• Important: Never use bleach or fabric softener when washing the microfiber cleaning pad.
  

Storage

• After the steamer is used, turn the power off and then unplug the power cord.
• Take out the water tank and empty the residual water in the tank and clean the external surface with a dry cloth.
• Remove the cleaning pad and wash it so that it will be ready for the next use.
• Store product in a protected, dry area. Keep water funnel and measuring cup for future use.
• Keep out of reach of children.
  

NOTE: After cleaning, take out the water tank before cutting off the power and then let the product work for a while, until there is no steam. Doing this removes water from the pipes and then its good to store.
