seconds for steam to be produced.

Push and pull the steam mop slowly across the carpet to

thoroughly refresh each section.

Note: During use you may turn off the steam pump by return-

ing the handle to the upright position, this convenient feature

will allow you to leave the steam mop for a short time so that

you may move items of furniture, then continue cleaning

without the need to switch the appliance off.

When you have finished using the steam mop, return the

handle (4) to the upright position and turn it 'OFF' and

wait until the steam mop cools down. (approximately five

minutes).

tank. To refill the water tank and continue to sanitise/clean,

return the handle (4) to the upright position and turn the steam

mop 'OFF'. Unplug the unit from the electrical wall outlet,

remove and refill the water tank (3).
