USER INSTRUCTIONS i500A/B
Thank you for purchasing the Reliable™ i500A/B steam cleaner. Please
follow the instructions carefully. With proper care and maintenance, your
steamer will provide years of dependable service.
1. Unscrew the security cap and fill the steamer with a maximum of 2
Liters of water. If you have ordered the i500A with the nozzle and
foot pedal, screw the nozzle into the steam fitting and plug in the 4-
pin receptacle for the electronic foot pedal. If you have the ordered
the i500B with steam gun connect the same way using the quick
disconnect for the steam hose.
2. Plug the steam generator into the main power supply.
3. Switch on the steam generator by pressing the button "boiler" and
the steam by pressing the "steam" button.
4. Wait until the pressure reaches 3.5-bar (50 lbs). This will take
approximately 15 minutes.
5. Press the foot pedal or the (red) steam button on the steam gun and
regulate the desired steam quantity by turning the valve handle
situated behind the solenoid valve on the steam generator.
6. If you notice a decrease in steam pressure when you first use the
steamer, this is because the tank is full of air. In order to have plenty
of steam (after you have depressed the foot pedal or steam gun)
wait until the pressure goes back up to the maximum level before
you begin.
7. If during use the steam flow ceases and the low water button lights
up, it means that there's no more water in the steam generator. In
order to start steaming again, switch off the "boiler" button, slowly
unscrew the security cap, verifying before unscrewing it completely
that there is no more steam in the nozzle or steam gun. To verify
this, just press the foot pedal or the red steam button situated on the
gun. Take the plug off the steam generator and fill the steamer with
water to the required level.
IMPORTANT
When you are finished using the boiler for the day, unscrew the fill cap one-
turn on the unit to release the steam/air from the tank. This will eliminate the
vacuum that may cause damage to the pressure gauge.

CAUTION
•
Never leave the steamer unattended when it's plugged in. Always
pull the plug out before you fill it with water.
•
Never remove the tank locking cap while the steamer is running and
always check, before removing it, that no steam is coming out of the
gun.
•
•
The tank-locking cap must be replaced with original spare parts. DO
NOT TIGHTEN THE CAP TOO MUCH AS IT WILL CAUSE THE
PLASTIC TO CRACK. MAKE SURE IT IS "SNUG".
The use of normal tap water is recommended for the i500. In order
to clean the steam generator and remove mineral content, rinse it
internally (every 15-20 Liters of water used or every month) with tap
water.
•
•
The guarantee does not cover mineral damages due to not rinsing
the steam generator.
Service: If you need to have your i500 serviced, please contact only
authorized technical assistance centers (for further information
please call 800-268-1649 or visit our web site at
www.reliablecorporation.com).
IMPORTANT
When you are finished using the steamer for the day, unscrew the fill cap
one-turn on the unit to release the steam/air from the tank. This will eliminate
the vacuum that may cause damage to the pressure gauge.
