Use Of The Steam Cleaner - PALSON Vapormatik Modo De Empleo

4.2 Use of the steam cleaner

* Warning: Never point the gun's steam outlet hole at people, animals, plants or electric equipment (e.g. oven or mains plug).
There is a risk of burns or electric shocks.
Release the lock mechanism (childproof safety lock) pressing the yellow triangular pin to the right of the steam gun towards the
left (Fig. 22). Now hot steam will come out when you press the steam button.
First hold the steam gun over an old cloth to absorb any remains of pulverised water. Press the steam button until the steam
comes out evenly. You can now start to clean.
NOTE: the remaining steam will continue to come out for a few seconds after turning the appliance off.
* Precaution: Always test the steam cleaner first in areas of the surfaces or fabrics you are going to clean that are hidden or
cannot be seen, to test their tolerance to hot steam.
- Steam may bleach painted/varnished wood.
- Steam may bleach shiny plastic.
- Acrylic material, velvet and linen may be sensitive to the steam temperature.
- Do not use the steam cleaner on Dralon fibres without previously having tested it on a hidden area.
For obvious reasons, the manufacturer cannot assume any responsibility for damage to objects, materials, people, animals or
plants due to inadequate use of hot steam or improper use of the appliance.
Do not point the steam outlet hole at a point for too long. Remove the dirt moving the steam jet backwards and forwards. The
steam flow can be adjusted turning the steam controller and can be adjusted to the level or dirtiness. Turn the steam controller
to the right to reduce the amount of steam and to the left to increase it (Fig. 23).
Do not swing or tilt the appliance more than 45° during usage and make sure that it is always supported on a firm base. A full
tank is sufficient for 50 minutes of usage. Keep an eye on the machine when it is on and if necessary use the childproof safety
lock to protect the steam switch. To do so, push the yellow triangular pin to the left of the steam gun towards the right.
* Warning: The casing and accessories heat up during usage. Let the appliance cool down before changing the accessories.
Never open the tank lid when the steam cleaner is turned on, as the tank is pressurised.
NOTE: The Vapormatik has a overheating disconnection mechanism. The appliance turns off automatically when it reaches
180 ºC to prevent it from overheating. Unplug it from the mains immediately pulling out the plug. The appliance can be used
again after a cooling period of 30 minutes.
4.4 Water filling
Turn the steam cleaner off pressing the I/O button. The red operating indicator will turn off. Press the steam gun steam button
to release the residual pressure and then lock the gun. Unplug the appliance from the mains and let it cool down. Be careful,
the tank water is still hot after 5 minutes. Open the tank lid pushing it downwards and turning it to the left.
* Warning: hot steam may come out when you open the tank. You can burn yourself on the screw top and the tank.
Fill the water tank with the measuring jug and funnel (see section 3.2 "Filling the water tank") and then carefully close it again
with the lid.
The cleaner can now be plugged in and turned on again. The Vapormatik is ready to use as soon as the heating indicator turns
off.
4.5 End of use and storage
Turn the appliance off. The red operating indicator will turn off. Press the steam gun steam button (Fig. 24) to release the
residual pressure. Fix the steam gun pushing the lock pin to the left of the handle towards the right. Remove the plug from the
mains socket and let the appliance to cool down. Empty the water tank so that the remains do not settle (Fig. 25).
Do not close the water tank until it is completely dry. The steam cleaner should have completely cooled down before it is put
away. The appliance should be kept out of the reach of children. The extension tube with the floor brush assembled can be put
inside the storage support at the back of the appliance to put it away or for short rests during work.
