MIRACLE STEAMER

MAINTENANCE (continued)

CLEANING STEAM GENERATOR

1.Turn the unit off and unplug the power cord. Allow the unit to cool down before proceeding.

2.Perform the Daily cleaning, but DO NOT reas- semble the unit

3.Remove the wing nut, Generator Cover, and Diffuser (Figure 8). Wash these items in hot, soapy water, rinse and WIPE DRY.

4.With the unit cool, use a wire brush and/or scrap- er to loosen and remove the excessive calcium/ mineral deposits from the generator surface (Figure 8). Next, take a wire brush and clean out any build up that has accumulated in the 28 steam ports (26 vertical and 2 horizontal) of the generator (Figure 8). Remove the loose build up, wipe the generator with a clean, damp cloth, and reassemble the unit.

NOTE: If deposits are still excessive and/or diffi- cult to remove, refer to Steps 5 and 10.

5.Pour delimer solution (not supplied) onto the gen- erator surface. Follow the delimer manufacturer’s instructions for proper mixture and use.

CAUTION

If a chemical cleaner/delimer is used, be sure it is safe to use on cast aluminum. Observe all pre- cautions and warnings on the product label.

6.Using a sponge or a dry towel, remove the delimer solution from the generator surface, then rinse with clean water.

NOTE: To ensure proper steaming characteristics, some calcium/mineral deposits must be present on the generator surface. If, during cleaning, the sur- face does become free of calcium/mineral deposits, add plain tap water to the surface and allow it to boil off. If necessary, repeat this process to formu- late a thin coating of calcium/mineral deposits.

NOTE: In soft water areas, it may be necessary to add a small amount of lime to the generator to “season” it. This will ensure proper steaming char- acteristics by producing a thin coating of calcium/ mineral deposits on the generator surface.

Seasoning mixture consists of 3/4 ounces (25ml/ 25cc) baking soda, 3/4 ounces (25ml/25cc) lime mixed with 1 quart (950ml/950cc) of water. Stir mixture and pour 1/4” deep onto the hot generator surface. After mixture is converted to steam, the remaining loose power can be removed.

7.Plug the power cord into the appropriate outlet.

8.Turn the unit ON. Allow the unit to warm up for approximately 30 minutes.

9.Push and release the Operate button or the Single Shot button several times to operate the steamer. This purges any remaining delimer residue from the generator surface.

10.Turn the unit off, reinstall all parts and accesso- ries, and return the unit to service.
