After Each Use
NOTE: When you have finished steam cleaning, ensure that both the
power switch and steam switch are turned off and that the plug is
removed from the electrical outlet.
Let the unit cool and then empty any remaining water from the tank by
unscrewing the water tank cap and turning the steam cleaner upside down
over a sink or outdoors.
Store the steam cleaner by using the hanging strap at the top of the handle
if needed.
Cleaning the Steam Generator
IMPORTANT! Only follow these instructions when the steam clean-
er is completely cooled down. Also ensure that the plug is removed
from the electrical outlet.
1. Twist the steam nozzle, releasing it from its locked position. Pull
upwards; this will remove it completely from the steam chamber.
2. Insert the nozzle brush into the chamber.
3. Rotate the brush while pulling it in and out of the chamber.
4. Insert the steam nozzle back into the chamber and turn it clockwise
to lock back into position.
NOTE: Oreck recommends cleaning the chamber at least after every
12 - 15 uses to ensure optimum performance.
Unblocking the Steam Outlet
If steam flow appears reduced, the steam nozzle may be blocked. Unplug
the unit from the electrical outlet and allow it to cool.
1. Insert the nozzle pin into the center of the steam nozzle to clear any
blockage that may have formed.
Cleaning the Cloths
Both the floor and utility cloths can be machine washed (60˚C max). For
heavy soiling, soak the cloths in warm water and detergent or a mild stain
remover. Allow the cloths to dry completely before storing.
