cloth is soiled, allow to cool, then turn the cloth over or replace it with a clean cloth.
If you are working on a very dirty area, you can move the brush over the area slowly,
several times. If it is a wood floor, move fast to avoid heat or moisture build up in the
wood. By cleaning with the cloth over the brush, you will not affect the shine on the
floor.To strip wax
Use floor brush for open areas, detail brush for corners or tight areas – no towel, slow
strokes. Work a small area at a time – remove the emulsified wax from the floor.
When all of the wax has been stripped, immediately clean the floor and brushes with
water before residue has a chance to harden on them. Go back over the stripped area
with the floor brush with a towel to remove any remaining residue before waxing.
TO CLEAN WAXED FLOORS
Wrap clean towel around the floor brush, brush quickly. This will cause the dirt to be
removed, but not the wax.
VINYL FLOORS
Do not allow the heat to build up on 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 detail brush attached to an extension. Have the floor
brush with cloth attached ready as well. Clean the grout between the tiles with the
detail brush. Remove the detail brush and attach the floor brush, move the brush
across the floor to clean the tile and remove excess moisture and residue. For areas
of tile that are very dirty, remove the towel and agitate with the brush. Do not let the
area dry before you wipe with a towel.
SPOT CLEANING (CARPETS)
Use the concentrator with or without the detail brush. Move slowly over the soiled
area, allowing the steam to penetrate. Agitate with detail 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 colour fastness of carpet in an inconspicuous area before cleaning. If
your steam cleaner fails to remove stubborn stains a commercially available carpet
shampoo may be required.
Do not add cleaning solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to the
water used in this appliance as this may damage the unit or make it unsafe for use.
UPHOLSTERY
Use the floor brush attached directly to the hand grip with a clean white terry cloth.
Use fast, light strokes to avoid getting the fabric wet. Be patient with stubborn spots.
Work on a spot gently for no more than a minute at a time, then wait five minutes
for the area to dry and repeat. Use circular movements or back-and-forth and side-to-
