HELP ! I THINK MY STEAM CLEANER HAS GONE
WRONG !
Water comes out of the nozzle
The Steam Cleaner develops a massive amount of
steam. This may condense as water or water droplets
in the steam hose and tools and nozzle, which are
then expelled when used after a period of cooling. This
is normal and not a cause for concern.
No steam comes out
Check in case the hose has become kinked or blocked,
or if you are short of water in the tank.
I can't get the pressure cap off
Make sure that you have wholly de-pressurized the
boiler See the section REFILLING WITH WATER IN
USE.
Steam flow is erratic; sometimes it works really well,
sometimes not so good
If you have not used pure water, you may have a small
blockage inside your Steam Cleaner.
I have hard water and use boiled water from the
kettle, or water that I left in the boiler, now my Steam
Cleaner doesn't work well at all.
Actually, you have made matters worse because
boiled water concentrates the minerals that form lime
scale rather than boiling them away. Water left in the
boiler will go off and may create a reaction with the boiler
and/or the steam hose. So, ALWAYS empty the
machine after use and NEVER use boiled water.
