Kärcher SC 1125 Kurzanleitung Seite 22

If there are residues of detergents or
floor cleaning products (e.g. wax, liquid
polish) on the surface to be cleaned,
streaks may form during the cleaning.
These streaks normally disappear after a
repeated use of the steam cleaner.
Steam iron
Firmly insert the steam plug (K5) into the
appliance connector (A1). The locks of
the steam plug must lock into the cover
of the appliance connector.
Steam ironing
We recommend the use of the Kärcher iron-
ing table with active steam extraction. This
ironing table has been especially designed
to match your new unit. It facilitates and,
thus, accelerates the ironing process sub-
stantially. In any case, you should use an
ironing table which is covered with a mesh-
type underlay allowing the steam to pass
through.
All fabrics can be steam ironed. Adjust
the temperature regulator (K4) of the
steam iron within the notched range (•••/
MAX). Delicate imprints or fabrics should
be ironed on the reverse or according to
the manufacturer's specifications. For
this, you can use our anti-stick sole plate
(see optional accessories overview).
Once the indicator light on the steam iron
(K2) has gone out, the steam iron is
ready for use. The sole plate must be hot
to prevent the steam from condensing on
the sole plate and dripping onto the gar-
ment to be ironed.
Press the steam button (K3) on the iron
for steam ironing.
Steaming at intervals: Press the but-
ton. A jet of steam comes out so long as
the button is pressed.
Continuous steaming: (Figure k) Press
the button and pull the lock backward.
To stop, push lock forward.
Direct the first burst of steam at a sepa-
rate piece of cloth until the steam is emit-
ted evenly.

You can hold the iron in an upright posi-
tion to apply steam to curtains, dresses,
etc.

Wallpaper remover (optional)
For special accessory, order No. see page
23
You can use the wallpaper remover with the
steam cleaner to remove paper wallpapers.
Place the entire surface of the wallpaper
remover along the edge of a strip of wall-
paper. Switch on the steam supply (C4)
and allow the steam to act on the wallpa-
per until it is completely soaked (approx-
imately 10 seconds).
Move the wallpaper remover to the next
piece of wallpaper you want to remove.
Hold the steam switch (C4) pressed
while you move the tool. Lift the soaked
piece of wallpaper using a flat trowel,
and pull it off the wall. Move the wallpa-
per remover from strip to strip, and pull
the wallpaper off in strips.
In case of woodchip wallpaper that has
been painted several times, the steam
may not be able to soak the wallpaper.
Thus, we recommend to prepare the
wallpaper using a spiked roller before
steam is applied.
Steam turbo-brush (optional)
For special accessory, order No. see page 23
The steam turbo-brush is set swinging by
the emitted steam and is suited ideally for
the easy cleaning of extreme dirt at places in
the kitchen and the bathroom that are diffi-
cult to access.
Application:
– cleaning of corners, joints
– areas that are difficult to access
