ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1.To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another appliance on the same socket (circuit) as the steam cleaner.
2.If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a grounded extension cord rated a minimum of 15 amperes, 14 gage cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
3.Do not leave unattended when the system is connected to a power supply/electrical outlet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do NOT modify the plug in any way.
WARNING: Your steam mop is designed to clean hard floor surfaces that will withstand high heat. Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors. On surfaces that have been treated with wax or some no wax floors, the sheen may be removed by the heat and steam action. It is always recommended to test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding. We also recommend that you check the use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer.
IMPORTANT: Do not store unit with damp/wet
IMPORTANT: Do NOT add cleaning solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to the water used in this appliance. If you live in a hard water area, we recommend using distilled water in your steam mop.
WARNING: Danger of Scalding. Please use caution when using the steam mop. The steam emitted from the openings is very hot.
