Drying the Water Tank

When cleaning is completed, make sure to empty the water tank and allow it to dry before storing the steam mop nozzle.

Warning
  • After cleaning, separate the mop pads from the steam mop nozzle after letting it cool sufficiently. Touching the steam mop nozzle or the mop pads before they are sufficiently cooled may result in burns.

  • Open the water inlet cap a on the side of the water tank and empty the water tank. Shake the water tank to remove the remaining water. Do not tap the water tank against any surface.

  • Leave the water inlet cap open and allow the water tank to dry in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight for at least 24 hours.
