OTHER IMPORTANT NOTES

During operation the steamer hose may gurgle. This is a normal result of condensation collecting inside the hose. Simply lift the control handle upward until the hose is extended to its full height. The gurgling will disappear when the excess moisture inside the hose has had a chance to drain back into the base. If the steamer stops producing steam then starts again. You may wish to examine the inside of the reservoir. The most common reason for this effect is the accumulation of sediment from mineral laden water. Clean the offending sediment from inside the unit, first following the steps for cooling and cleaning the unit as presented previously.
