Important Safety Instructions

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury. Read all instructions before using this appliance.

• Always ensure the power supply matches the voltage rating on the appliance.
• Do not leave the steam mop unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the appliance, power cord, or plug in water or other liquids.
• Do not direct steam at people, animals, or electrical outlets. Steam is very hot and can cause burns.

• Keep the appliance out of reach of children and individuals with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities.
• Do not use the appliance if the cord or plug is damaged, or if the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
• Use only distilled or demineralized water in the water tank to prevent mineral buildup and extend the life of the appliance.

Using the Carpet Glider:

To refresh and sanitize carpets, attach the carpet glider over the steam mop head with the cleaning pad already in place. Move the mop back and forth over the carpeted area. The carpet glider allows the mop to glide smoothly over carpet surfaces without saturating them.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning Pads:

The microfiber cleaning pads are machine-washable. Remove them from the mop head after each use and wash them with similar colors. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fibers and reduce cleaning effectiveness. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.

Water Tank:

After each use, empty any remaining water from the tank. This prevents stagnant water and potential mineral buildup. For long-term storage, ensure the tank is completely dry.

Descaling:

Over time, mineral deposits can build up inside the steam mop, especially if tap water is used. To descale, mix a solution of equal parts white vinegar and distilled water. Pour into the water tank and allow it to sit for 30 minutes. Then, run the mop until the tank is empty. Repeat if necessary. Always rinse thoroughly with clean distilled water afterwards.

Storage:

Store the steam mop in a cool, dry place. Ensure the power cord is neatly wrapped. The lightweight and detachable design allows for convenient storage.
