Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.

•Use indoors only.

•Do not immerse motorized nozzle, use only on carpet

moistened by cleaning process.

•Do not allow to be used as a toy. Do not allow infants or

children around the machine during operation.

•Use only as described in this manual. Use only

manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

•Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not

working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left

outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service

center or call customer service at:

US: 1-800-989-3535 Canada: 1-888-676-7325

•Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close

door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners.

Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

•Do not run appliance over cord.

•Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the

plug, not the cord.

•Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.

•Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any

opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair and anything

that may reduce air flow.

•Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of body

away from openings and moving parts.

•Do not use to pick up anything that is burning or smoking,

such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

•Turn off all controls before unplugging.

•Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

•Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids,

such as gasoline or lighter fluid, or use in areas where

they may be present.

•Do not use appliance in an enclosed space where

filled.

• Always turn off the appliance before connecting or

disconnecting motorized nozzle.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Household Use Only

2

Water and cleaning

solution is not dispensing

onto carpet or upholstery.

Not removing certain

stains. Heavy traffic area

spots.

Carpet is excessively wet

after cleaning.

Note: Under normal

conditions, a carpet may

take up to four hours or

longer to completely dry.

Drying time depends on a

combination of various

factors including: carpet

type, carpet pile

thickness, temperature,

humidity, air circulation

and the number of wet

passes.

Excessive foaming at

spray tips.

Dark streaks on carpet

after cleaning.

Steemer brush roll will not

turn.

Cleaner will not run or

suddenly stops.

•Check that the upper supply tank is partially

filled with lukewarm water. Caution: Do not

overfill.

•Check that a cleaner cartridge is installed

and that the white lever is locked in the

downward position. Due to pressurization, the

cleaner will not properly operate without a

cleaner cartridge in place. If the cleaner

cartridge is empty, replace it with a full

cartridge.

•Check that the spray tips are not clogged.

Use a towel or damp cloth to clean.

•For above-the-floor cleaning, check that the

hand-held nozzle and hose assembly is

properly connected to the cleaner neck. Also

insure that the button lock has been

engaged.

•For best results, use a stain pretreatment,

such as Steemer Full Release®Professional

Spot & Stain PreCleaner. These solutions

loosen and break down most common

household grease, oil, and food stains.

•Make several slow passes over the stain

from different angles.

•Make at least one additional pass over the

wet carpet without pressing the cleaner

button.

•Check that the handle trigger lock is not

engaged.

•With each pass, slowly pull the unit toward

you to extract any remaining liquid in the

carpet. To speed drying, gently push the

nozzle deep into the carpet pile.

•Check for airpath obstructions in the

stair/upholstery hose, cleaner neck and in the

nozzle. Check to insure that the inlet screen

is free of debris.

•Check that the upper supply tank has water.

•Operate the machine more slowly; you will

achieve better results with one slow pass

than several fast strokes.

•Overlap each pass to provide maximum

cleaning without streaking.

•In high traffic or heavily soiled carpets, it is

occasionally beneficial to allow the carpet to

dry and repeat the process as needed to

achieve optimal cleaning.

•Check that the nozzle power cord is

completely connected to the main unit.

•If an obstruction stalls the brush roll, the belt

is designed to burn through so as to protect

the motor. Please insure through inspection

that the brush roll is free of obstructions and

is free to turn. Secondly, make sure that the

belt is in good working order. Replace the

belt if needed.

•If the belt and the brush roll become

excessively wet, momentary slippage can

occur. By running the unit on a dry section of

carpet for a minute or less, the belt will

function properly.

•Reinsert the plug, if it has slipped out of the

outlet.

•The A.L.C.I. may have tripped off due to

fluctuations in household current. Press the

reset button and restart the unit.

Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances

Adouble-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of the

following: The words “Double Insulation” or “Double Insulated” or the

double-insulation symbol ( ). In a double-insulated appliance, two

systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding

means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means

for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-insulated

appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and

should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts

for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they

replace.

Polarization Instructions:

To reduce the risk of electric shock, the Oreck Steemer model is

equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one

blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only

one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to fit the plug fully

into an outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,

contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not

defeat the purpose of the polarized plug in any way.

A.L.C.I

The Oreck Steemer is made to double-insulated specifications and is

equipped with an A.L.C.I. (Appliance Leakage Circuit Interrupter). The

A.L.C.I. shuts off the unit in potentially hazardous situations.

fig. 5 The A.L.C.I. has a Test and Reset button which should be

operated each time the unit is plugged in.

a. Do not remove the tag which provides test instructions from

around the cord at the A.L.C.I. (A.L.C.I. may vary from illustration).

DANGER: Improper installation of A.L.C.I. can result in electric shock.

Do not modify or by-pass the A.L.C.I. Do not replace any electrical

component in this product with anything other than an authorized

ORECK replacement part. The risk of electric shock can result if used in

the vicinity of improperly grounded stationary appliances (stove,

refrigerator, washer, etc.).

To Set-Up Cleaner

The Oreck Steemer carpet and hard flooring cleaner is designed for

fast and easy set-up.

fig. 6 Swing the wheels away from the nozzle into the operating

position.

Remove the supply/recovery tank:

fig. 7 Pinch the gray and red tank release latch together and gently

lower the latch to the nozzle. Do Not Force Latch!

fig. 8 Push the supply/recovery tank downward toward the nozzle and

lift out.

fig. 9 Fill the supply tank:

a. Open the gray tank cap.

b. Fill the tank with hot tap water to the fill line, as noted on the side

of the tank.

c. Use the temperature label on side of tank to check water

temperature. “OPTIMAL” should be showing on label when the

correct water temperature is achieved.

CAUTION: Do not overfill tank or use water that is too cold

or too hot. Do not put any type of shampoo/cleaner into the

supply tank. Use only Steemer Full Release®Professional

Carpet Cleaner cartridges, which are specifically formulated

to be residue-free. Other carpet shampoo will leave residues

in the unit that will over a short period of time clog the

dispensing system and void your warranty.

fig. 10 Close tank cap and place the tank back on the cleaner. Lift the

gray latch to slide the tank upward into position until you hear a

“click”, signaling that the tank is securely locked into place.

Insert Cleaning Cartridge/Bottle:

NOTE: Cleaner will not operate without a cleaner cartridge locked

into the docking bay.

Remove the cleaner cartridge/bottle cap.

fig. 11

Insert the cleaner cartridge into the docking bay on the

side of the cleaner.

a. The directions on the cleaner cartridge must be facing out.

b. Lock and seal the cartridge in the cleaner by rotating the

white lever on cartridge from top to bottom.

Test and reset the A.L.C.I.:

fig. 5

Plug in the power cord. Press the test button to shut off

power. To reset the A.L.C.I., simply push in the red reset

button on the plug.

To Prepare Carpet

Always vacuum thoroughly before using the ORECK STEEMER

carpet and hard flooring cleaner. It provides excellent carpet and

hard floor cleaning on surfaces that are free of surface debris.

To achieve best results, high traffic areas and carpet stains should be

pretreated prior to cleaning using Steemer Full Release®Professional

Spot & Stain PreCleaner.

CAUTION: Before cleaning a carpet for the first time, test a small

area for color fastness.

Pour a small amount of Steemer Full Release®Professional Carpet

Cleaner on a clean white cloth and blot carpet. Examine this cloth for

color removal; if color appears on the cloth, the carpeting is not

colorfast and should not be cleaned with any wet extraction process.

NOTE: This product is not recommended for use on carpets made

from silk, velvet, wool and some cotton blends. Check the

manufacturer’s cleaning recommendations.

Operating Instructions

To Clean Carpets and Hard Flooring:

NOTE: DO NOT use on Hard Wood Flooring.

fig. 12 Turn the Shampoo/Rinse switch to the “SHAMPOO” position.

fig. 13 Place power switch in the “ON” position.

fig. 14 Press the red button in the handle and while lifting the handle

slightly, slowly pull the cleaner backwards. Pressing the button

releases the cleaner and water mixture. As you pull the nozzle

over the sprayed floor, the nozzle extracts the solution from the

floor and stores the dirty water in the recovery tank.

fig. 15 To move forward, slightly tilt the nozzle off the floor and roll the

cleaner forward. Repeat process working in small overlapping

rows for even cleaning until the entire room has been completed.

WARNING: Do not push forward! Pull the cleaner towards

you to clean. This cleaner has been specifically designed to

place the nozzle deep into the carpet.

Push down gently on the handle to lift the nozzle out of the

carpet, to move forward and reposition the cleaner.

IMPORTANT: Adjust the speed of the cleaning stroke to

your carpet and flooring conditions. Heavily soiled or

stained carpets or floors will require slower strokes. Avoid

oversaturating.

NOTE: The nozzle squeegee may be flipped for deeper

cleaning on deep pile carpets. See “To Replace Squeegee”

To shorten the drying time, go back over the floor pulling slowly

backwards without depressing the red button. Repeat this procedure

until you do not see water being pulled through the nozzle.

To Rinse Carpet and Hard Flooring:

fig. 12 Turn the Shampoo/Rinse switch to the “RINSE” position.

fig. 13 Place power switch in the “ON” position.

fig. 14 To rinse carpet or hard flooring, press the red button in the

handle. Slowly pull the cleaner backwards over already cleaned

area. Pressing the button releases clean water. As you pull the

nozzle over the sprayed floor, the nozzle extracts any remaining

solution from the floor and stores the dirty water in the recovery

tank.

fig. 15 To move forward, slightly tilt the nozzle off the floor and roll the

cleaner forward. Repeat process working in small overlapping

rows for even cleaning until the entire room has been completed.

CAUTION: Do not allow the lower recovery tank to overfill.

Damage to the unit can result. Empty the recovery tank when full

and whenever clean water is added to the upper supply tank.

fig. 7 To empty the recovery tank, simply release the tank latch by

squeezing the red and gray latch together.

fig. 8 Lift the tank out and carry it to a sink or drain. Turn the tank

upside down and pour the dirty water out.

fig. 9 Refill the supply tank with clean hot water. Replace cleaner

cartridge as needed.

NOTE: Cleaner will not operate without a cleaner cartridge

locked into the docking bay.

For heavily soiled carpets it may be necessary to clean from several

directions to insure that the carpet is thoroughly cleaned.

Sample Cleaning Procedures:

You can use the Oreck Rinse-A-Matic™ Carpet and Hard Floor cleaner

in many ways to achieve optimal results. The following chart is a guide

to usage, however, feel free to use it in a manner which you think is

most effective depending on the surface.

The procedure section indicates the types of passes to use on the

To Prepare Upholstery:

IMPORTANT: Prior to cleaning any upholstered furniture read the

following instructions very carefully.

Most modern upholstery fabrics may be safely cleaned by wet cleaning

methods; yet there are exceptions to this, as some delicate or unusual

fabrics require “dry cleaning.” If you are in doubt about the type of fabric,

we suggest that you check with the manufacturer or dealer where the

furniture was purchased. Most fabrics are wear coded by the

manufacturer which details cleaning methods for a particular fabric. If

necessary, bring in a cushion or arm cover to your dealer.

• Cleaning upholstery which is covered with fabrics that are not

compatible with wet cleaning may result in damage to the fabric.

Know what the fabric is and how it may be cleaned before using the

Oreck Steemer cleaner.

• Check the stuffing material if possible. Look inside cushions and

underneath the furniture. If the filling is colored, it may bleed through

and discolor the furniture. Most modern stuffing material is light

colored and colorfast.

• To remove loose dirt, vacuum upholstery thoroughly with a vacuum

cleaner.

• If the upholstery is being cleaned for the first time, CHECK FOR

COLORFASTNESS. Test a small, area several hours before starting

to clean upholstery. Pour a small amount of Steemer Full Release®

Professional Upholstery Shampoo on a clean white cloth and blot

upholstery. Examine the cloth for color removal. If color appears on

cloth, the upholstery is not colorfast and should not be cleaned with

wet extraction methods. Let test area dry completely. Inspect for

changes in color, bleeding, stretching or shrinkage. Test another area

if in doubt. This product is not recommended for use on silk,

velvet, wool and some cotton blends.

To Clean Upholstery & Small Spill Pick-Ups:

Plug cord into an electrical outlet.

fig. 5 Test and reset A.L.C.I. on the plug.

fig. 11 Insert a specially formulated Steemer Full Release®Professional

Upholstery Cleaner Cartridge.

fig. 13 Turn cleaner on by placing the On/Off power switch in the “ON”

position.

fig. 14 Lock the cleaner button by pressing and sliding the button

forward on the main handle.

fig. 18 Depress the red dispensing trigger on the hand-held nozzle and

slowly drag the nozzle towards you. Make a second pass at right

angles to the first. This will minimize any streaking or uneven

appearance.

Several key precautions must be followed to insure

operator safety:

1. Always test and reset the Steemer A.L.C.I. plug.

2. Do not immerse the power nozzle of the Oreck Steemer.

3. Do not allow the lower recovery tank to overfill.

4. Do not pick up corrosive, combustible, or flammable liquids such as

acids, gasoline, alcohol, or use this product in areas where vapors

from these types of materials are present.

5. Do not use to clean out bathtubs, flooded basements or any place

where the liquid depth exceeds 1⁄8”.

To Clean Carpet Cleaner

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury from

moving parts, unplug before servicing.

Before turning the cleaner off, tilt the cleaner back, raising the nozzle off

the carpet for 15-20 seconds. This prevents extracted water in the

nozzle from dripping back onto the carpet after you turn the cleaner off.

fig. 13 Place the power switch in the “OFF“ position. Unplug the power

cord from the outlet.

fig. 11 Remove the cleaner cartridge by rotating the locking white lever

upwards. Do not store with a cleaner cartridge attached.

fig. 19 Remove and empty the tank. Rinse out the lower recovery tank

with warm water. Wipe off the inlet screen to remove

accumulated dirt, lint and debris.

fig. 10 Replace tank.

fig. 20 If you have been operating the cleaner at length, it may be

necessary to clean the nozzle from time to time, particularly if the

carpet is brand new or very dirty, or if long-haired pets frequently

use the carpeted area. Unplug cleaner and examine several

areas on the power nozzle to see if debris has built up:

a. Extractor slots

b. Brush roll chamber

c. Spray Tips

fig. 20 To clean the Steemer extractor slots, place a cloth or towel over

the motor cover to shield and protect the motor from water

damage. Run hot tap water through the nozzle until clean.

To clean the brush chamber and spray tips, take a towel or damp

cloth and wipe clean.

To Store Cleaner

fig. 6 Pull the wheel assembly forward toward nozzle for compact

storage.

NOTE: Do not store the cleaner in freezing conditions.

Do not store the cleaner with water in the tank. Do not store

the cleaner with cleaner cartridge attached. Turn the

squeegee upside down for storage. Squeegee will deform if

left in position while in storage.

Things To Do

• Use only manufacturer recommended attachments and accessories.

• Keep free of dust, lint, and hair.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
