Attachments

Conic Pipe

This attachment is the base attachment for all handheld accessories, excluding the utility nozzle. It can also be used alone to clean places or crevices that are not easily accessible.

Curved Nozzle

This attachment is ideal for cleaning toilet bowls, taps, and drain covers. To remove non-permanent stains from carpets or upholstery, point the attachment directly at the stain and hold a clean cloth nearby to absorb any loosened dirt.

Scraper

This attachment is used to remove stubborn buildup or to help de-ice the refrigerator or freezer.

Round Brush

This attachment is designed for use on a variety of surfaces, including tiles, ovens, wheels, and glass.

Small Round Brush

This attachment is for use on hard stainless-steel surfaces such as grates on a grill.

Double Brush Tool

This attachment is used to remove dirt from grooves and crevices.

Utility Nozzle

This base attachment is used with the following accessories: Small Mop for covering the utility nozzle when cleaning upholstery and bedding. This accessory is useful for cleaning tile and or glass surfaces, cabinets, and countertops. As well as upholstery, curtains, blinds, pillows, and mattresses.

The squeegee attachment can be attached to the utility nozzle by inserting the hooks at the back of the squeegee attachment into the loops on the back of the utility nozzle, then securing the front of the utility nozzle into the locking clip on the top of the squeegee attachment (as shown).

Remove the squeegee attachment after use by holding the locking clip forward. The utility nozzle should still be attached to the hooks at the back of the squeegee attachment. Pivot the utility nozzle up and unhook it from the squeegee attachment.

The squeegee attachment is ideal for cleaning tiled or glass areas such as windows or mirrors. To clean windows, start at the top, press the squeegee to the surface, and drag downwards in straight passes from top to bottom. Dry the rubber blade and window edge after each pass with the  VacMaster SMF1501 2-in-1 Steam Mop. For small windows, spray the steam directly to the surface and wipe away moisture with the squeegee.

Run-Dry and Blockage Protection

If the steam mop is operated without water, then VacMaster SMF1501 2-in-1 Steam Mop after a few minutes, the pump that supplies the water to the boiler will stop, and the indicator light will change color to red. If this happens, switch the product off, refill the tank, and then switch back on. After the 25-second heat-up time, the pump will start to work, and steam will be emitted. The indicator light will change to red, and the pump will shut off if there is a blockage to the steam nozzle. If this happens, switch off and allow the product to cool before examining the nozzle for a potential blockage.

Rinsing the Water Tank

Regularly rinse the water tank to release any deposits that have collected at the bottom of the tank. Only use deionised, demineralised, or distilled water (available from most supermarkets) and close the fill cap to allow vigorous rinsing.

Maintaining Mop

To reduce the risk of shock, disconnect the power cord and turn off. Allow the steam mop to fully cool down before performing any cleaning, maintenance, or storing. This product contains no serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it by yourself. If there is any servicingthata the  VacMaster SMF1501 2-in-1 Steam Mop requires disassembly other than cleaning, contact customer service.

After Use

Follow the two maintenance steps below after every use.

1. Turn the cleaner off and unplug it from the VacMaster SMF1501 2-in-1 Steam Mop outlet. Place immediately on a suitable surface (eg, tiled floor) where the residual heat/moisture in the floor nozzle/pad will not affect the surface. Wait until the cleaner has cooled down completely.
2. Empty the water tank by opening the fill cap and pouring out the water. Allow the inside of the water tank to dry out before closing the fill cap.

Storage

We recommend storing the steam mop with the carpet glider attached, but the pads removed to minimise the likelihood of any water leaking onto surfaces. Rotate the upper cord hook upwards, then wrap the cord around the upper and lower cord hooks to secure the power cord.

The upright handle is collapsible for compact storage by pressing the upright handle release button.
