Switch the Steam Caddy on

With the tank filled with water, plug the steamer into a mains socket and press the red ON/OFF mains switch (3) and this will illuminate to show the power is on. The amber “Heating Up” neon Indicator (4) will also light up.

After approximately 30 – 60 seconds the green “Steam Ready” neon Indicator

(5)will light up to tell you that the unit is ready to use and instant steam is available.

Steam Release Button (13)

To deliver instant steam just press the Steam Release Button.

The Steam Release Button gives complete control over the delivery of steam. Once the water heats up and the “Steam Ready” neon is lit, steam will be delivered only when the Steam Release Button is depressed. This means that you produce the exact amount of steam you need, when you need it. Normally steam will be delivered within two or three seconds of the button being depressed and stop within a few seconds of the button being released, giving you complete control of the steamer.

The Steam Caddy is also extremely safe. The Steam Button has no electric wires connected to it. Instead a pneumatic system is used to operate the delivery of the steam.

Once the Steam Caddy is ready to use, begin to move the attachment head over the surface to be cleaned at a steady pace, pressing the Steam Button as required.

WARNING: Quality control checks in our factory may result in a very small residue of water in the Steam Hose of the Steam Caddy. This is due to steam cooling in the hose. When you switch the unit on for the first time (and every time thereafter) and before the Steam Ready light comes on, there may be a short jet of hot water or steam ejected from the end of the tool, before or immediately after the Steam Button is pressed. Drain this water into a container, until only steam is produced, before starting your cleaning task.

Only submerge the end of the handle nozzle when descaling. Never submerge at any other time, with or without attachments fitted. Cooling steam will draw water up into the hose.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The Boiler Unit must be unplugged after use and before cleaning or before any maintenance.

There is very little maintenance required for this machine. To clean after use, simply ensure the unit is switched off at the mains then wipe it over with a damp cloth. Wipe all tools down and wash out any used bonnets.

Periodically check Attachments, Extension Tubes, Nozzle Connections and Handle Nozzle Connection for a build up of debris or lime-scale and remove as necessary.

Wash bonnets at 90˚C for maximum longevity. Do not use bleach or fabric conditioner. Use only one third of normal soap powder to avoid clogging of the fibres.

Spare bonnets are available from Earlex Limited or you can make your own using Terry Toweling material.
