Important safety instructions

When using your Lakeland Steam Mop, please follow these basic safety precautions.

Please use caution when using the steam mop. The steam emitted from the openings is very hot.

1 Use the system only for its intended use.

2. Do not use outdoors.

3. Do not leave the appliance unattended when plugged in. Always unplug the power cord
from the electrical outlet when not in use and before servicing.

4. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Do not allow the appliance to be used as a toy.

5. Use only manufacturer’s recommended accessories.

6. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged plug or cord, or if the unit has been dropped
or damaged. Never attempt to repair or replace the cord yourself as this may lead to severe
injury or electric shock. Call the helpline on 015394 88100 to arrange a replacement.

7. Do not immerse the steam mop into water or any other liquids.

8. Do not handle plug or steam mop with wet hands or operate appliance without any shoes.

9. Do not pull or carry by power cord, use power cord as handle, close a door on the power
cord, or pull the power cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep the power cord away from
heated surfaces.

10. Do not unplug by pulling on power cord. To unplug, grasp the plug not the power cord.

Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.

11. Do not put any objects into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked.

12. Do not put hands or feet under the steam mop, the unit gets very hot.

13. Use ONLY on flat, horizontal surfaces. Do not use on walls, counters or windows.

14. Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors. On surfaces that have been
treated with wax or some 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. We also recommend that you check the use and care instructions from the floor
manufacturer.

15. Do not use on leather, waxed polished furniture, synthetic fabrics, velvet or other delicate,
steam sensitive materials.

16. 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. If you live in a
hard water area, we recommend using distilled water in your steam mop.

17. When in use, NEVER turn the appliance over or on its side. Never direct steam towards

people, animals or plants.

18. Never leave the steam mop in one spot on any surface for any period of time when
microfibre pad is attached.

19. Carefully remove the microfibre pad immediately after you have finished using the steam
mop. Do not store the unit with damp/wet microfibre cleaning pad attached.

20. When cleaning the steam mop, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and clean
with a dry or damp cloth. Do not pour water or use alcohol, benzene or paint thinner on the
unit.

21. Extreme caution should be exercised when using this appliance to clean stairs.

22. Do not use steam mop without microfibre pad attached.

23. Store the steam mop indoors in a cool, dry place.

24. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another appliance on the same socket (circuit) as
the steam cleaner.

25. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, an extension cord rated a minimum of 15
ampere, 14 gauge cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat.
Extension cords over 5 metres in length should not be used. Care should be taken to arrange
cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

Filling the water tank

Please be aware that the first time you use the Lakeland Steam Mop you may find water
droplets in the water tank. This is due to testing of the unit at the factory.

2. Remove the water tank cap by turning it anti-clockwise to the unlocked position. The water

tank cap has an arrow to indicate the locked to unlocked position.
