GREAT BRITISH DESIGN, INNOVATION, AND EXCELLENCE SINCE 1912

Since the turn of the 20th century, Tower has been designing, developing, and manufacturing housewares and small appliances used by millions of households throughout the UK and beyond. During the 1960s, the rise in popularity of pressure cooking saw Tower become the  UK’s largest producer of pressure cookers, right through into the late 1980s. In recent years the Tower brand has been reborn with an exciting and varied range of housewares and electrical appliances that have quickly reinstated the brand’s richly deserved status as a household name.

8. For best results wash the pads after each use (additional pads may be purchased online from www.towerhousewares.co.uk)

The benefits of using a Tower Steam Mop are as follows:

• It will remove stubborn stains and sanitize your work surfaces or floors more efficiently than conventional cleaning methods.
• The steam cleaner can be assembled and disassembled easily from a long mop-type steamer to a handheld steamer.
• It can be used as a handheld steamer for those awkward places where the portability of the product allows you to achieve the extra cleaning protection
  that conventional methods or products just do not achieve.

Hand-held steamer:
The handheld steamer is an ideal portable cleaner for use on work surfaces, countertops, sinks, windows, mirrors, tiles and spot cleaning on floors, carpets, and rugs. Use it with the jet nozzle, brass brush, or nylon brush attachments to spray away dirt, grease, mold, and more.

• Remove the power supply cord from the upper cord wrap and cord holder. Turn the lower cord wrap to release the cord and remove the power supply cord from its channel as illustrated (See illustration).
• Press the extension handle lock button and remove the extension handle and the curved handle from the main body.
• Press the lock button on the main body and remove the mop head.

To attach the Jet Nozzle:
Insert the Jet Nozzle into the designated hole in the Main Body until it locks in place with the Lock Button on the Main Body (You will hear a clicking sound), as illustrated. (See below).

To fit all accessories:
All accessories that attach to the jet nozzle end fix by clicking in place and turning slightly clockwise to secure in position.
They can be used with soap or detergent to clean dirty areas.

WARNING! Never use the round brass brush on soft surfaces such as plastic or soft metals as they are prone to scratching.

When changing any of the attachments it is recommended the appliance is switched off and allowed to cool before changing or adding the attachments.

Window cleaning/garment cleaning:

• This attachment is used to clean windows and flat glass products such as mirrors as well as garments.
• To fit the squeegee attachment, clip it onto the steamer shelf.
• To clean clothing, attach the steamer cloth.
• To fit the cover, pull the elasticated steamer cloth (attachment 16) over the steamer shelf (attachment 17).
• The unit comes complete with a squeegee blade for use on windows and mirrors (Attachment 18).

WARNING! Do not use it on frozen windows, as the thermal shock may cause the glass to crack or shatter. When cleaning fabrics where possible it is recommended that you check the fabric label to ensure that the fabric will withstand the temperatures generated by the steam. For large items or items that are not labeled use a test area that will not be visible. It is always best to have the material hanging as this will aid with the eradication of creases on the fabric item or clothing.
The fabric will be hot after the steam has been applied.
Always test on a small piece of fabric before use.

Wiring Safety for UK Use Only

IMPORTANT

As the colors in the mains lead of this the appliance may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in your plug, please proceed as follows:

The wires in the mains lead are labeled in accordance with the following code:

Blue neutral [N] Brown live [L] Green/Yellow [EARTH]

Plug Fitting Details (Where Applicable).
The wire labeled blue is neutral and must be connected to the terminal marked [N].

The wire labeled brown is the live wire and must be connected to the terminal marked [L].

The wire labeled green/yellow must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter [E].

On no account must either the brown or the blue wire be connected to the [EARTH] terminal.

Always ensure that the cord grip is fastened correctly.

The plug must be fitted with a fuse of the same rating already fitted and conforming to BS 1362 and be ASTA approved.

If in doubt consult a qualified electrician who will be pleased to do this for you.

Non-Rewireable Mains Plug
If your appliance is supplied with a nonrewireable plug fitted to the mains lead and should the fuse need replacing, you must use an ASTA-approved one (conforming to BS 1362 of the same rating).

If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician who will be pleased to do this for you.

If you need to remove the plug – disconnect it from the mains – then cut it off of the mains lead and immediately dispose of it in a safe manner. Never attempt to reuse the plug or insert it into a socket outlet as there is a danger of an electric shock.
