4. REFILLING THE WATER TANK WHILE WALLPAPER STRIPPING
Should the need arise to refill the water tank with water while wallpaper stripping:
1. Switch Off and unplug the power cable from the mains supply socket.
Warning: Although the steam pressure in the water tank has been released, the water
tank still contains very hot water. Do not attempt to remove the safety cap until the
water tank has cooled down.
2. Wait at least 5 minutes for the water tank to cool, check the
weight of the tank, does it feel empty, if not do not open until
the side of the tank is completely cool to tough. If the tank feels
empty then carefully start to unscrew the safety cap. If you
hear steam escaping, stop and wait until the hissing sound
stops. (Fig 5)
3. Carefully, continue to unscrew the safety cap. If you hear
steam escaping from the cap immediately stop and allow a
further 10 minutes cooling before attempting to open.
4. Continue in this manner until the safety cap can be removed.
Take great care, as any residual water is very hot.
5. Slowly fill the water tank with water using a funnel.
6. Screw the safety cap back onto the steamer and tighten by hand.
7. Plug the 3-pin mains plug into the mains socket and switch on.
8. Continue with the instructions for switching on.
9. When you have finished steam cleaning, switch off and unplug the power cable from
the mains supply socket.
10. Allow the water tank and all accessories to cool completely then empty any residual
water.
Clean and dry the accessories and store in a dry place.
SAFETY CUT-OUT
A safety cut-out is fitted to prevent overheating of the element if the water boils low. If
the water tank stops boiling, this can be the cause.
1. Wait two minutes before removing the filler cap then refill with water.
2. The cut-out will reset itself and steam will be produced within 15 minutes.
