1) Read the instruction booklet carefully.
2) When in use, the appliance contains pressurized steam: incorrect use could be
dangerous. The appliance is only for domestic uses as shown in the booklet. The
manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for damage caused by incorrect use of the
appliance.
3) Always unplug the appliance before refilling the boiler or carrying out any
maintenance or cleaning work on the machine.
4) Before using, check that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage specified on
the rating plate of the appliance.
5) Plug the appliance into power outlets of 10A current rating and provided with good
earthing.
6) Do not aim the steam jet at electrical sockets, pressurized elements as you
may damage them and get an electric shock.
7) Do not aim the steam jet at the appliance itself.
8) Do not unplug by pulling the electrical lead or the appliance.
9) To avoid damage to the insulation, do not run the appliance over the electrical
supply lead.
10) Make sure the cap is firmly screwed on and remove any water residue from
the cavity before you switch on the boiler.
11) Do not plug in the boiler without water in it. To add water, unplug the
appliance and wait for about 15 minutes to avoid steam release from the cap.
Place the cloth over the cap and unscrew slowly allowing residual steam to
escape gradually.
12) DO NOT UNSCREW THE BOILER CAP WHEN UNDER PRESSURE.
13) Unplug all electrically operated objects or appliances (stove, fridge, oven
hood, etc.) from their power points before steam cleaning. Before plugging in
again, ensure they are completely dry as any remaining water could cause
electrical discharges.

Never aim the steam jet at persons or animals, or use on objects unable to
withstand high temperatures.
15) Do not touch the plug with wet hands.
16) When in use, hold the appliance only by the handle: the machine contains a boiler
so its surface heats up during normal use. Persons with a pathological insensitivity
to heat must exercise particular care when using this appliance.
17) Always keep the appliance level while in operation.
18) Do not put detergents or other cleaning agents in the tank. Use only water.

A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorpora-
te a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug
should be cut off from the mains lead, and an appropriate

elsewhere in the house as this could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse to BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT be used until a replacement fuse
cover can be obtained from your nearest electrical dealer.
The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that as
marked on the base of the plug.
