When the Floor Steamer has run out of water, there will be no more
steam coming out of the unit. At this stage it is time to rell the Boiler.
Follow the relling instructions below.
*IMPORTANT*
The Floor Steamer has a Boiler that should not be overlled. To avoid the
potential for overlling, only rell the Boiler when it is completely run out of
water and only add 600ml. Always follow the practice of using the Floor Steamer
until it has run out of water and then rell 600ml only.
If oor cleaning is completed and water remains in the Boiler, the Floor Steamer
can be stored with the remaining water in the Boiler, there will be no harm done
to the unit. At the next cleaning session simply heat up the unit and use the
water already in the Boiler, then rell when empty.
Using Your Floor Steamer
Or alternatively at the next cleaning session, open the Boiler Cap when the unit
is still cold and pour out the water and then rell ( if this alternative method is
used, it is recommended that only 500ml of water is added, because the uni t
will not completely drain when the water is poured out from the Boiler).
WARNING: Let Steamer cool 5 minutes before opening Boiler Cap.
Use care when opening Boiler Cap as it may still be hot and steam
may escape, causing burns. If Boiler is still hot, water may spurt out
during relling which can also cause burns.
•
Unplug the appliance from the electrical power outlet. This will stop
the Steamer from continuing to heat up.
• Once unplugged from the power outlet, place Handle in the “On”
position to release any residual steam and pressure from the Boiler.
• After all steam and pressure has been expressed from the Steamer,
return the Handle to the upright “Off” position.
• Slowly turn Boiler Cap counterclockwise. This will allow remaining
steam to escape.
•
Be sure Steamer has cooled 5 minutes before relling with water.
The product warranty will be null and void if
anything other than water is added to the Boiler.

If distilled or demineralized water is regularly used in the Steamer,
cleaning of the Boiler can be done less frequently. In some areas tap
water is very hard, it is recommended that the Boiler is cleaned more
frequently if hard water is used.
The cleaning of the Boiler and Steamer is the sole responsibilit y of the
appliance owner. Calcium, mineral deposits and other sediment left
to build up in the Floor Steamer causing the Steamer to fail and/or the
steam pathways in the Steamer to block, is not covered by the product
warranty. Users must follow the cleaning instructions above.
If the Steamer and Boiler are not cleaned according to the instructions above and the product fails and/or the steam pathways are
blocked, the appliance owner should send the product for servicing
by contacting the Customer Support Line.
The Superclean Floor Steamer is intended for domestic
household use only. It is not intended for commercial use. Any use other
