IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General Warnings
Read all instructions before using the steam cleaner.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
• Do not leave appliance unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
• To prevent shock, do not use outdoors. The steam cleaner is intended for household use only.
• Do not let the unit run while in any one stationary position for any period of time. Keep the unit moving during use.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy.
• This product is not to be used by children.
• Do not use the steam cleaner directly overhead.
• Do not put any objects into openings or operate with openings blocked.
• Never immerse the steam cleaner in water or liquids.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center or call customer service at: US: 1-800-989-3535 Canada: 1-888-676-7325.
• Do not pull or carry by the power cord, use cord as a 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.
• Do not run the steam cleaner over the power cord.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Turn off all controls before unplugging. Always remove the power cord from the outlet and handle the steam cleaner with care when filling the boiler tank with water.
• Do not unplug by pulling on the power cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the power cord.
5
• Do not handle the plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Do not over fill the boiler tank. Do not exceed the maximum fill level. Use the measuring jug to measure the correct amount of water.
• Do not use without the filler cap in place. Check that the filler cap is completely screwed down before use.
• Do not operate without water in the boiler tank.
• Do not fill the water tank with anything other than water or Oreck Fresh Air® Steam Mop Essence. Never put additives (such as perfume, stain remover, or products containing alcohol) in the water as they may damage the steam cleaner or make it dangerous to use.
• Empty the boiler tank when the steam cleaner is not in use.
• Do not touch any hot areas on the steam cleaner or accessories. Allow them to cool down before handling them.
• The force and heat of the steam may have an adverse effect on some materials. Always test the steamer on a small concealed area to determine if it is suitable for treatment.
• Never point or aim the steam cleaner at people, animals (risk of scalding!), plants, electrical systems or wires.
• Do not use to treat clothing being worn on the body.
• Connecting the steam cleaner to improper voltage may result in damage to the steam cleaner and possible injury. Always plug the steam cleaner into a power outlet with the correct voltage. See the rating label on the unit for the correct voltage.
• Put in storage after each use to prevent tripping accidents.
• Steam through the hose and handle may cause them to get hot. Avoid contact with hot areas.
WARNING! This steamer product is equipped with a safety locking filler cap. The red button, located in the center of the cap, will rise above flush with cap when the system is heating and under pressure. This will prevent the user from removing the cap. Do not defeat the safety mechanism. Turn the unit “OFF” and depress the trigger to relieve pressure. Do not attempt to remove the cap and fill the tank until you have relieved as much pressure as possible and the unit has cooled or the red button returns to its original position. Always use caution when removing the cap.

DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is grounded. If not, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on nominal 120-volt circuit. It has a grounding plug similar to the example shown. Make sure the appliance is connected to an outlet with the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.
Grounded Plug
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. The cord for this appliance has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. It must only be plugged into an electrical outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

pushing the safety lock button on the right side of the hose handle.
2. Test how the steam will effect
the surface or fabric.

the steam temperature
and cleaning power move
the handle closer to or
farther away from the
surface being
cleaned.
