the Boiler cap is removed.

Steam cleaning

NOTE: Before operating, make sure all desired accessories are connected and Boiler is ﬁlled with the

correct amount of water.

1. For ﬁrst-time use, remove protective plastic cover that is shipped on electrical plug. Plug power

cord into a convenient 3-prong electrical outlet. Heating Indicator Light will illuminate to show

that unit is receiving power and Boiler has started to heat.

CAUTION: This unit uses a grounded (3-prong) electrical plug. Use only in properly installed

3-prong electrical outlets. Do not attempt to alter plug or circumvent this safety feature in any

way.

2. After approximately 3 minutes, Heating Indicator Light will turn off. This indicates that Boiler is

fully heated, and unit is ready to begin steaming.

NOTE: Heating Indicator Light may cycle off and on during use, accompanied by a slight

temporary drop in steam pressure – this is a normal part of operation, as the Boiler works to

maintain a steady optimal temperature.

3. Point Jet Nozzle (and any connected accessories) towards surface you wish to steam, and press

Steam Trigger. Hold Trigger down for a continuous ﬂow of steam.

CAUTION: Always be sure that Jet Nozzle and other accessories are pointed in a safe direction

(away from yourself, other people, pets, and plants) before pressing Steam Tr i g ge r.
