Electrical connection and supply
THIS APPLIANCE MUST ONLY BE USED ON AN EARTHED SUPPLY Check that the supply voltage details given on the rating plate (located on the underside of the product) are in accordance with your electricity supply.
For Appliances with fitted plug. If the socket out­lets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and the appropriate one fitted. Please note: The plug severed from the mains lead must be destroyed as a plug with bared flexible cord attached is hazardous if engaged in a live socket outlet. Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require changing a 13 amp BS1362 fuse must be fitted. Important: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green and yellow – Earth, Blue – Neutral, Brown – Live. As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows. The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter ‘E’ or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ‘N’ or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ‘L’ or coloured red. Each wire must be properly connected to the appropriate terminal pin of suitable plug and the outer sheath of the mains lead securely retained by the anchorage arrangement of the plug. In case of doubt the plug should be fitted by a qualified electrician or competent person as the guarantee offered on this product does not cover any fault in the plug or damage caused to the appliance as a result.

finger tight. Do not over tighten.
Attaching Hose and Accessories
Pull down flap on the front of the
machine socket (4).
Insert the plug on the end of the hose (7)
into the machine socket (4) with button side facing up, and push firmly until it clicks into place. (Fig B)
Attach the desired accessory, i.e. large
floor brush (16), jet nozzle (18), to the
extension tube (9) or directly to the handle (8), depending on the application.
The accessories vary per machine
The round brushes (19 & 20) can be
attached to the jet nozzle.
To join the extension tubes together, slide
one tube into the other until it locks into place. (Fig C)
Attach the two tubes to the handle of
the hose. Slide the handle into the extension tube until it locks into place. (Fig D)
Some tasks may be easier with only one tube fitted or none at all. To connect the desired accessory directly
to the steam handle, slide the handle into the accessory head until it locks into place.
When using the large floor brush (16) (or
the triangular brush (23), the brush connector (17) needs to be fitted to the brush first, in order to attach the same to the extension tube.

1. Push the connector end, holding it upside
down, fully into the brush inlet. (Fig E)

2. Twist connector 1800, until it is in place.
(Fig F)
The fit between the connector and the
tubes and/or handle is tight to ensure no steam leaks. It is recommended to keep both parts lubricated to facilitate connecting and disconnecting.

release button (10) and pull the items apart. Please note accessory heads may be hot! Please be careful not to trap your fingers.
OPERATING YOUR STEAM CLEANER
Connect the unit to the mains and switch
on the boiler heater by pressing the on-off button (2). The ‘heater on’ light is illuminated.
Steam will be available in approx. 12 minutes.
When the steam is ready for use the heater on/off light will turn off.
Make sure that the locking mechanism
(13) on the handle has been released. If you push the lock (13) towards the rear, the steam switch can not be operated. Push the lock forward so that the steam switch is released. (Fig G)
To make steam ready press the ‘steam
on/off’ button (3) and the orange light will come on. STEAM IS NOW READY TO BE RELEASED.
To release steam, press the handle
control switch (12). At the start, always point the steam handle at a cloth until a steady flow of steam comes out.
During steam release the heater on/off
light (2) will turn on - this is normal and is not a fault
To stop releasing steam, simply release
the handle control switch (12).
Refilling
When the boiler is empty no steam, or poor quality steam is emitted. The boiler needs to be refilled: Switch off the boiler heater by pressing
the on/off button (2)
If there is pressure in the boiler, the filler
cap (1) will revolve but a safety feature prevents it from being unscrewed.
Release any steam pressure in the system
using the on/off switch (3) on machine and handle (12). Switch off the steam release button (3). The cap can then be unscrewed.
Unplug the mains cable.
Leave the product with the filler cap off for 10 minutes before filling.
Refill the boiler using the funnel (Fig A). Use warm water to reduce heat up time
Caution: Do not pour cold water into a very hot boiler as steam and hot water may be blown out of the filling hole and can scald!!!
Screw the cap back on. Start operation
again (SEE OPERATION SECTION ABOVE)
Switching the unit OFF
Switch the unit off by means of switches
(2) and (3).
Remove the hose plug (7) from the unit
by pressing the button, holding down the socket flap simultaneously.

the unit.
To avoid deforming the brushes (16 & 23),
ensure that the brushes are allowed to cool down before storing.
USE OF ACCESSORIES
Steam handle (8)
To avoid spurting of heavy and moist steam it is recommended always to attach an accessory to the steam handle.
Large floor brush (16)
Recommended applications include:
- carpets and rugs
- sealed timber & parquetry
F
5
- ceramic tiles
- vinyl
The large floor brush can be attached to
the extension tubes or directly to the steam handle, provided that the brush connector (17) is fitted.
Stretch the cotton cloth lightly over the
bristles using the clips provided on the brush head. (Fig G)
Switch on the steam and move
the cloth-covered brush gently over the surfaces to be cleaned.
Replace cloth regularly so that more dirt
can be collected and to avoid too much moisture being applied to the floor and leaving it very wet.
Heavily soiled areas will require more
attention to allow steam more time to act on the dirt while lightly soiled and smooth surfaces will only require a quick wipe.
Jet nozzle (18) and round brush (19 & 20)
Recommended applications include:
- Hard to reach surfaces such as corners and joints
- Toilets and sanitary installations
- Venetian blinds
- Defrosting fridges
- Eliminating odours and creases in clothing. Firstly place the garment on to a clothes hanger and spray steam at a distance of around 10 – 20 cm.
- Removing dust from plants.
Maintain a distance of around 30 – 40 cm to avoid burning leaves by direct contact with steam.
The jet nozzle can be attached either
directly to the handle or via the extension tubes.
The closer you hold the jet nozzle to the
object to be cleaned, the better the cleaning results will be.The round bristle
brushes can be snapped onto the end of the jet nozzle.
The nylon brush is suitable for most
cleaning applications such as: grout, tap ware, toilets, bathrooms, fridge seals and sliding door runners.
The metallic brush is suitable for more
stubborn dirt where a more abrasive action will not affect the surface, such as BBQ plates and lime scale in toilets.
Hand held squeegee with big and small blades (21)
This squeegee cannot be attached to the
extension tubes and/or steam handle
Use the jet nozzle (18) to apply steam to
the window at a distance of at least 30cm.
Squeegee the window in straight passes
from top to bottom. Wipe the blade and the bottom edge of the window dry after each pass.
Blades on the hand-held window cleaner
can be interchanged, according to the width of surface being cleaned.
Triangular brush (23) *
Recommended applications include
- smaller washable areas, such as:
- kitchen and bathroom surfaces
- car interiors
- upholstery
The triangular brush can be attached to
the extension tubes or directly to the steam handle, provided that the brush connector (17) is fitted.
Integrated Window cleaner (22) *
Fit the window cleaner to the handle
(attach extension tubes if required).
To ‘steam clean’ the surface, place the
thick rubber of the accessory head against the glass, whilst releasing steam. Cover the entire surface with steam.
To remove excess water turn the accessory
head around with the squeegee against the surface. Move the squeegee in straight passes from top to bottom. Wipe the rubber blade and the bottom edge of the window dry after each pass.
