Safety Precautions
Several key precautions must be followed to insure operator safety:
1. Always test and reset the Steemer A.L.C.I. plug.
2. Do not immerse the hand-held nozzle of the Oreck Steemer.
3. Do not allow the lower recovery tank to overfill.
4. Do not pick up corrosive, combustible, or flammable liquids such as
acids, gasoline, alcohol, or use this product in areas where vapors from these types of materials are present.
5. Do not use to clean out bathtubs, flooded basements or any place where the liquid depth exceeds 1⁄8”.
Steemer brush roll will not turn.
Cleaner will not run or suddenly stops.
ALL OTHER SERVICING SHOULD BE DONE BY AN ORECK AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
• Check that the upper supply tank is partially filled with hot tap water. Caution: Do not overfill.
• Check that a cleaner cartridge is installed and that the white lever is locked in the downward position. Due to pressurization, the cleaner will not properly operate without a cleaner cartridge in place. If the cleaner cartridge is empty, replace it with a full cartridge.
Check that the spray tips are not clogged.
• Use a towel or damp cloth to clean.
• For above-the-floor cleaning, check that the hand-held nozzle and hose assembly is properly connected to the cleaner neck. Also insure that the nozzle change button has
een engaged.
b
• For best results, use a stain pretreatment, such as Steemer Full Release Spot & Stain PreCleaner. These solutions loosen and break down most common household grease, oil, and food stains.
• Make several slow passes over the stain from different angles.
• Make at least one additional pass over the wet carpet without pressing the cleaner spray button.
• Check that the hand-held nozzle trigger is not engaged.
• With each pass, slowly pull the unit toward you to extract any remaining liquid in the carpet. To speed drying, gently push the nozzle deep into the carpet pile.
• Check for airpath obstructions in the stair/upholstery hose, cleaner neck and in the nozzle. Check to insure that the inlet screen is free of debris.
• Check that the upper supply tank has water.
• Operate the machine more slowly; you will achieve better results with one slow pass than several fast strokes.
Overlap each pass to provide maximum
• cleaning without streaking.
• In high traffic or heavily soiled carpets, it is occasionally beneficial to allow the carpet to dry and repeat the process as needed to achieve optimal cleaning.
Check that the nozzle power cord is
• completely connected to the main unit.
• If an obstruction stalls the brush roll, the belt is designed to burn through so as to protect the motor. Please insure through inspection that the brush roll is free of obstructions and is free to turn. Secondly belt is in good working order. Replace the belt if needed.
If the belt and the brush roll become
• excessively wet, momentary slippage can occur. By running the unit on a dry section of carpet for a minute or less, the belt will function properly.
• Reinsert the plug, if it has slipped out of the outlet.
A.L.C.I. may have tripped of

• fluctuations in household current. Press the reset button and restart the unit.
