Lime scale cleaning procedure

If the steam cleaner has started to produce steam more slowly than usual, or has
stopped producing steam completely, it is necessary to remove the lime scale. This
plaque can form over time on metal parts and greatly affect performance.

It is necessary to regularly clean the lime scale every 25-50 times of using the water
tank, or at least once a month, especially when using hard water.

The frequency of removal of lime scale depends on the degree of hardness of tap
water and the frequency of use of the device.

The steam cleaner uses tap water. If you have hard tap water, you need to use filtered or distilled water.

To remove scale from the appliance, follow these steps:

By using cleaning solution

Prepare a solution of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 tap water and add to the water
tank.

Close the cap and shake the device. Don’t turn on the device

Leave the tank for a few hours. Then empty the tank and fill it with clean water – rinse it several times.

WARNING!
DANGER OF SCALDING

• Cleaing blocked steamer accessories.
  Due to the high mineral content of water in some areas, you may notice that less steam comes out from the Hand-Held Steamer accessories. This may be caused by calcium buildup inside the tip of the nozzle.

How to clean calcium buildup:

We recommend using a spray lubricant (not included in the set). Spray a small burst or two of the lubricant inside the tip of the Jet Nozzle. After spraying lubricant inside the component, fill the steamer with water according to the directions and run a continuous jet of steam through the affected accessory to several minutes to remove the deposit. Once the steam pathway is clean, aim the steamer at a neutral surface or a cleaning cloth to make sure no debris is emitted.

WE RECOMMEND PREFORMING THIS PROCEDURE IN A PROTECTED AND WELL-VENTILATED AREA.

Microfiber cloth care:

• Machine wash at 60 oC
• Do not bleach
• Do not use fabric softener
