Operating Instructions

The Hombasing Steam Cleaner features 6 levels of adjustable steam output. Rotate the steam control knob on the main unit to select your desired steam intensity, from gentle to powerful, to suit different cleaning tasks and surfaces.
3. Cleaning Surfaces
Direct the steam nozzle towards the surface to be cleaned. Move the nozzle slowly over the area, allowing the hot steam to penetrate and loosen dirt, grease, and grime. Use the appropriate brush head for optimal results on different textures.
4. Important Usage Notes
- Wear gloves to avoid being burned by the hot nozzle or steam.
- To stop the steam, turn off the power switch on the main unit. There is no trigger on the handle.
