OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: THIS APPLIANCE IS A STEAM GENERATOR
USE WITH CAUTION - STEAM CAN BURN
Filling with Water
Undo filler cap (fig 3). Measure 2 Litres (3.5 pints) of hot or cold tap water and pour in using
funnel. Do not overfill. When boiler is full the indicator float will appear in the sight glass (fig
4) with MAX in red; if condensation restricts view, remove cap to check float level. If the float
indicator is touching the top of the sight glass the machine has been overfilled, empty excess if
overfilled and mop up any spillage. Replace safety filler cap. Use only tap water, the addition
of perfume or other agent will seriously damage your steamer and void the warranty.
Turning On
Connect to power supply, switch on with ‘On/Off’ switch (fig 2). Clear ‘Steam indicator’ light
(fig 2) will illuminate. It will take 5-10 minutes for steam to appear from the nozzle,
depending on the temperature of water used.
Using Your Steamer
Once steaming, allow hose to get hot. Shake nozzle vigorously to remove excess condensation
before using - repeat regularly. If using at low levels, periodically raise the hose to full height,
allowing condensation to run back into the boiler. Do not kink or restrict the hose, as this
may cause ejection of water and damage to hose. Always return the hose handle to the hook
on pole set with nozzle holes pointing upwards when not in use (fig 1). Never leave hose
assembly on floor.
Refilling
When steamer is empty an alarm buzzer will sound. The clear ‘Refill’ light will illuminate.
Switch steamer off. Disconnect power supply and wait for steamer to cool. Refill with
hot/cold water – 2 litres (3.5 pints) following above instructions (take care as the machine may
still be hot). Do not overfill. Once refilled, machine will reset itself when switched on as above
instructions
.
Note
The steamer is fitted with a safety filler cap. If steam or water is emitted from the cap the
cause is either 1) steamer is overfilled 2) steamer needs rinsing out 3) the hose is kinked or
restricted. Remedial action should be taken immediately to ensure no damage is caused to the
steamer or hose.
