2.4 Floor nozzle (25)
·
Depending upon the actual
cleaning task, the floor
nozzle can be used with the
extension tubes (17). You
can use this nozzle for all
large washable wall and
floor surfaces. Place the
floor nozzle onto the folded large cloth (26), and
then pull the cloth under the retaining clips on
each side.
·
The best results for wiping up dirt are achieved
when you turn the cloth over, or replace it,
frequently.
·
For more effective cleaning of heavily soiled
surfaces, slow down your working speed to allow
the steam more time to penetrate the grime.
·
Any traces of detergents left on the floor surface
to be cleaned may form streaks. As a rule these
streaks will disappear after the steam cleaner has
been applied several times.
2.5 Hand nozzle (22)
·
Depending upon the actual cleaning
task, use the hand nozzle with the
extension tubes (17).
·
The hand nozzle can be used with
the terry-towelling slip-on (23) to
clean the following, for example:
– small washable surfaces
– furniture materials
– delicate surfaces.
2.6 Window nozzle (24)
·
Attach the window nozzle directly
to the steam gun. Use the
extension tubes (17) if required.
·
Apply steam evenly to the glass
surface from a distance of approx.
20 cm. Switch off the steam supply and squeegee
the glass surface in straight passes from top to
bottom. Wipe the rubber lip and the bottom edge
of the window dry after each pass.
Rubber squeegee replacement (order no. 6.273-

Steam-ironing
– We recommend that you use the Kärcher
Ironing Board with active steam extraction. The
ironing board has been designed to match your
new cleaner and it makes ironing considerably
easier and faster to do. In any case, you should
use an ironing board which is covered with a
mesh-type underlay that enables steam to
pass through.
– For ironing insensitive textiles, rotate the tem-
perature regulator to at least Stage ***MAX.
The escaping steam thus prevents overhea-
ting of the fabric. For sensitive textiles, you
should turn the temperature regulator back
within the steam area or use our special ac-
cessory, "Non-stick iron base", order no.
2.860-131.
– The iron is ready for use as soon as the
indicator lamp goes out (approx. 9 - 10 min).
The face of the iron must be hot so that the
steam does not condense to water and drip
onto the item being ironed.
– When you press the switch on the iron (29),
steam is discharged out of holes in the face of
the iron.
Constant steam: You can set the iron to
discharge steam continuously. To do this slide
the switch forward, it clicks into place. Simply
slide the switch back to switch off constant
steam.
Steam jet: Press the switch. Steam is
discharged as long as the button is pressed.
– Begin by directing the steam onto a piece of
cloth until there is regular flow of steam out of
the iron.
– Begin by directing the steam onto a piece of
cloth until water no longer comes out of the iron.
– Turn the steam volume control (2) on the main
unit to obtain the desired amount of steam.
– You can hold the iron vertically for steaming
curtains, clothes, etc.
