Operating Instructions

The GROBELL GB-SC70 offers both dry and wet steam modes for versatile cleaning.

1. Expel Condensed Water: Before applying steam to your cleaning surface, point the attachment away from yourself and others, and press the steam trigger to release any condensed water from the hose. This ensures you get dry, high-temperature steam.
2. Select Steam Mode: Use the "DRY" or "WET" button on the main unit to select your desired steam mode. Dry mode is ideal for fabrics and upholstery where minimal moisture is preferred. Wet mode provides more moisture for tougher stains and hard surfaces.
3. Apply Steam: Direct the chosen attachment towards the surface to be cleaned. Press and hold the steam trigger on the handle to release steam. Move the attachment slowly over the surface to allow the steam to penetrate and loosen dirt.

4. Floor Cleaning: For laminate, hardwood, or tile floors, attach the mop head with a microfiber pad to the extension tubes. Glide the mop head across the floor while releasing steam.

5. Detail Cleaning: Use the nozzle with round brushes (nylon for general cleaning, brass for tough grime like tile grout or oven racks) for targeted cleaning. For fabric surfaces, car seats, or wooden furniture, always use the fiber cap over the triangular brush to prevent damage.

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Unit: After each use, ensure the unit is unplugged and cooled down. Empty any remaining water from the tank. Wipe down the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth.
• Accessory Care: Microfiber pads and bonnets are washable. Hand wash or machine wash them with mild detergent and air dry. Clean brushes and nozzles with water and mild soap if necessary.
• Descaling: If using tap water, mineral deposits may build up over time. Periodically descale the unit by filling the tank with a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar. Run the unit until steam is produced, then turn it off and let it sit for 30 minutes. Empty the tank and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Storage: Store the steam cleaner and its accessories in a cool, dry place. The detachable hose and rear cord organizer make storage easy and compact. Use the provided storage bag for smaller accessories.
