water, use de-mineralized / distilled water when steaming light colored fabrics to
eliminate the possibility of hard water stains.

chemicals to the water used in this appliance. Use tap water or distilled/puried
water if the tap water in your area is very hard.

TIPS ON HOW TO USE YOUR SYSTEM
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors
Use the steam pocket. Move the steam pocket across the oor as if you are mopping.
When one side of the towel is soiled, turn the steam pocket frame and use the other
side. If you are working on a very dirty area, you can move the steam pocket over the
area slowly, several times. If it is a wood oor, move fast to avoid heat or moisture
buildup in the wood.
To Clean Waxed Floors:Use the steam pocket with quick strokes. This will cause the
dirt to be removed but not the wax.
Vinyl Floors:Do not allow heat to buildup in any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it
enough to affect its texture. Work fast on vinyl.
Tile Floors:Use the concentrator with the bristle brush attached to an extension. Have
the steam pocket ready as well. Clean the grout between the tiles with the bristle
brush. Remove the bristle brush and attach the steam pocket, move the steam pocket
across the oor to clean the tile and remove excess moisture and residue. Do not let
the area dry before you wipe with a towel.
Spot Cleaning (Carpets)
Use the concentrator with or without the bristle brush. Move slowly over the soiled
area, allowing the steam to penetrate. Agitate with bristle brush or clean towel. Dab
the spot with the towel (do not rub). Repeat as necessary to remove stain. Vacuum
only after the carpet has completely dried.Always test color fastness of carpet in an
inconspicuous area before cleaning.If your steam cleaner fails to remove stubborn
