Manutenção e Cuidados

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your steam mop.

• Após cada uso: Unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely. Empty any remaining water from the tank.
• Limpeza da unidade: Limpe o exterior da máquina de limpeza a vapor com anúncioamp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. The manufacturer recommends 'Hand Wipe Clean'.
• Microfiber Mop Pads: Remove and wash microfiber mop pads after each use. They are typically machine washable; refer to the care label on the pads.
• Descalcificação: Over time, mineral deposits can build up in the water tank and internal components, especially if tap water is used. To descale, fill the tank with a solution of 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts distilled water. Run the unit until half the solution is used, then turn off and let it sit for 30 minutes. Finish running the solution, then rinse the tank thoroughly with fresh distilled water. Perform descaling monthly or as needed based on water hardness.
