OPERATING THE

APPLIANCE

Please remember that the steam

cleaner operates by emitting

steam at an increased

temperature of 115

C. Never

use on materials or surfaces

that cannot resist this

temperature, such as dralon,

plastic, natural fur etc.

Where any doubt exists, check

carefully on a part of the

material where minor marks will

not matter.

Filling the water tank

1 To fill, unscrew the filler cap ‹

anti-clockwise A.

2 Fill the boiler with a maximum of

1 litre of water by using the

funnel and the filler jug provided

Three full jugs equal the

maximum 1 litre.

Use warm water or less water to

reduce the heat up time.

One jug will provide 10 minutes

of steam. The full three jugs will

provide 30 minutes of steam.

WARNING: Do not overfill.

• Do not use any detergent.

3 WARNING: Screw the filler

cap clockwise to tighten.

Tighten fully.

Heater switch

1 When the water tank has been

filled, insert the plug into the

power socket.

2 Fit the required nozzle or

accessory.

3 Switch the cleaner on by

pressing the heater switch ⁄ to

the ON position C.

The boiler will take

approximately 3 minutes to heat

up.

WARNING: As soon as the

boiler is up to temperature,

steam will begin to be emitted

from the nozzle. Hold the

nozzle away from the body

and away from other persons.

• Water may be ejected at first.

Aim the nozzle into a sink or

bucket.

WARNING: Do not block the

end of the nozzle. If the nozzle

becomes blocked, a safety

relief valve releases steam

pressure from the base of the

filler cap.

NOTE: the ‘heater ON’ light will

cycle on and off during use, this

is normal.

NOTE: If the product is switched

off before the boiler is empty,

steam will continue to be

emitted for up to 2 minutes. You

can continue to use the steam

to clean or rest the hose in a

sink until the steam has

dispersed.

Refilling

When the steam flow begins to

slow, the unit is ready for

refilling.

1 Switch off the cleaner before

refilling.

2 Unplug from the mains socket

and leave for a few minutes to

cool.

WARNING: Allow any steam to

disperse away from the nozzle

before attempting to remove

the filler cap.

3 Carefully unscrew the cap A.

WARNING: Take care as the

inner part of the cap will be

hot.

4 Use warm water to reduce

heat-up time.

Refill using the funnel and the

jug B.

• The water tank should be

emptied after use. Allow to cool

completely before emptying.

Attaching accessories

WARNING: Always switch the

unit off and wait for the steam

to disperse before attaching

and detaching accessories.

WARNING: Never direct steam

at electrical components or

fittings. If in doubt about the

suitability of steam for

cleaning an appliance, contact

the appliance manufacturer

for advice prior to cleaning.

IMPORTANT: It is strongly

recommended that after fitting

the new attachment, the hose

end is held over the sink initially

as a small amount of hot water

may be ejected before the

steam reaches full pressure.

1 Jet nozzle

Attach the jet nozzle Ê to the

hose end by lining up the lugs

and twisting to lock in place D.

The jet nozzle Ê is ideal for:

• General cleaning tasks, for work

surfaces, tile grouting and for

awkward corners and spaces.

• Defrosting freezers and

removing dust from plants.

The closer you hold the jet

nozzle to the surface to be

cleaned, the better the cleaning

results.

The following accessories can

be added onto the jet nozzle by

simply pushing to fit:

2 Directional nozzle

Push the directional nozzle Á

onto the jet nozzle ÊE.

The directional nozzle Á is ideal

for getting steam into awkward

spaces and for directing steam

under the lip of sink or toilet

bowls, grout, tap ware, venetian

blinds, and sliding door runners.

3 The round brush

Push the round brush Â onto

the jet nozzle ÊF.

The round brush Â is ideal for

hob cleaning and tile grouting

depending on the application.

4 Upholstery nozzle

Alternatively, the upholstery

nozzle È can be attached to

the hose end ﬁ G.

• This can be used for cleaning

upholstery or removing creases

from clothing.

• Place garments onto a clothes

hanger and spray steam at a

distance of around 10-20cm.

VC70455MUK Rev6_Instruction Booklet 13/08/2012 14:40 Page 5

5 Cotton socks

Stretch the sock Ë over the

upholstery nozzle ÈH.

Switch on the steam and move

the sock covered brush gently

over surfaces to be cleaned.

Replace the sock regularly so

that more dirt can be collected

and to avoid too much moisture

being applied. Extra socks can

be ordered by calling our

helpline.

WARNING: Always test on an

inconspicuous area first.

Never use on materials that

can’t resist high temperature,

such as dralon, plastic,

natural fur etc.

6 Window squeegee attachment

Attach the window squeegee

attachment Í to the upholstery

nozzle È by attaching the

hooks on the upholstery nozzle

to the tabs on the window

squeegee and push the main tab

over the upholstery nozzle I.

This accessory is ideal for

cleaning windows, patio doors,

conservatory glass, tiles and

shower screens.

To clean windows, start at the

top of the window, pressing the

squeegee to the surface and

drag downwards. Move the

squeegee in straight passes

from top to bottom. Wipe the

rubber blade and the bottom

edge of the window dry after

each pass.

WARNING: Do not use on very

cold glass, as the sudden

temperature change may

crack the glass.

Sanitising bedding

and upholstery

Sanitising and removing dust

mites and allergens from

bedding and upholstery.

Fit the upholstery nozzle È G

and pass the steam slowly and

evenly over the surface,

ensuring all areas are treated.

Repeat the process. Leave the

mattress to dry thoroughly

before covering.

Carrying strap

Your steam cleaner comes with

a carrying strap for added

convenience.

The carrying strap Î can be

clipped on the fixing locations

ﬂ either side of the cleaner J.

WARNING: Use only with the

cord storage side of the

cleaner towards your body.

After use

1 Switch the cleaner off and

unplug from the socket. Wait

until the cleaner has cooled

down completely.

2 Empty the water tank. Allow the

inside of the water tank to dry

out before replacing the filler

cap.

Rinse water tank

Regularly rinse the water tank to

release any limescale deposits

that have collected on the

bottom of the tank. Use clean

cold water and fit the filler cap

to allow vigorous rinsing.

Descaling

If the ‘heater on’ light goes off

before the cleaner starts to

steam, this indicates the

thermostat has operated too

soon and the cleaner needs

descaling.

In order to prolong the life of

your cleaner, you should

descale the boiler at least every

6 months.

1 Switch the cleaner off, unplug

and allow to cool.

2 Empty any water out of the tank.

3 Mix the descaler in the

measuring jug using warm

water. We recommend using

50gm of citric acid crystals per

1 litre of water. Citric acid

crystals are available from most

pharmacies.

4 Pour 1 litre of the descaler

solution into the tank.

5 Fit the cap and tighten fully.

6 Using the handle, move the

steam cleaner about to swill the

solution around the tank.

7 Leave for 30 minutes.

8 Empty the solution carefully.

9 Rinse the tank with clean warm

water, then empty.

10 Wipe the outside of the cleaner

with a damp cloth to remove all

traces of descaler solution.

WARNING: Do not switch on

the heater with the descaling

solution inside.

NOTE: We recommend the use

of distilled/de-ionised water to

minimise scale build up.

CARE AND

MAINTENANCE

Your cleaner is manufactured to

withstand normal day-to-day

use, but an occasional wipe

over with a damp cloth will help

maintain its good looks.

Abrasive cleaners should not be

used.
