Important application instructions
Cleaning coated or painted surfaces
ATTENTION
Damaged surfaces
Steam can loosen wax, furniture polish, plastic coatings
or paint and edge band from edges.
Do not direct the steam at glued laminated edges as the
edge band may loosen.
Do not use the appliance for cleaning unsealed wood or
parquet floors.
Do not use the appliance for cleaning painted or plastic
coated surfaces such as kitchen or living room furniture,
doors or parquet.
1. To clean these surfaces, steam a cloth briefly and
use it to wipe over the surfaces.
Glass cleaner
ATTENTION
Glass breakages and damaged surfaces
Steam can damage sealed points of the window frame
and, at low outside temperatures, lead to tension on the
surface of window panes and hence to glass breakages.
Do not direct the steam at sealed points on the window
frame.
At low outside temperatures, heat up the window panes
by gently steaming the full surface of the glass.
Clean the window area with a manual nozzle and
cover. To remove the water, use a squeegee or wipe
the surfaces dry.
Freshening up textiles
Prior to using the appliance, always check the compati-
bility of the textiles at a concealed point: Steam down
the textile, allow it to dry and then check it for any
change in colour or shape.
How to use the Accessories
Steam nozzle/steam gun
The steam nozzle or steam gun can be used for the fol-
lowing application areas without accessories:
● For removing slight creases from the hanging cloth-
ing items: Steam the clothing item from a distance of
10-20 cm.
● For wiping damp dust: Steam a cloth briefly and use
it to wipe over the furniture.
Manual nozzle
The manual nozzle is used for cleaning small areas that
can be washed down, shower cubicles and mirrors.
1. Slide the manual nozzle onto the steam nozzle or
steam gun.

2. Pull the cover over the manual nozzle.
Floor nozzle
The floor nozzle is used for cleaning washable wall and
floor coveringse.g. stone floors, tiles and PVC floors.
ATTENTION
Damage due to build-up of steam
Heat and moisture can lead to damage.
Check the heat resistance and steam effect on an in-
conspicuous area using a minimal volume of steam pri-
or to use.

Note
Detergent residues or care emulsions on the surface to
be cleaned can cause streaks during steam cleaning,
but these disappear after repeated use.
CAUTION
Beware of burns to your feet
The floor nozzle/floor cleaning cloth heats up during
steaming.
Hot water may drip out when pulling off the floor cloth.
Only operate or remove the floor nozzle/floor cleaning
cloth with suitable footwear.
We recommend sweeping the floor or vacuum cleaning
it before using the device. In this way the floor will be
cleared of dirt and loose particles before the wet clean-
ing commences. Work slowly on surfaces that are heav-
ily soiled so that the steam has longer to take effect.
1. Connect the extension tubes with the steam gun.

2. Connect the extension tube to the floor nozzle.

3. Attach floor cleaning cloth to floor nozzle.
a Place the floor cleaning cloth with the hook and
loop strips pointing upwards on the floor.
b Place the floor nozzle onto the centre of the floor
cleaning cloth, applying slight pressure.
Illustration N
The floor cleaning cloth will stick to the floor nozzle
of its own accord due to the hook and loop fastener.
Removing the floor cleaning cloth
1. Place one foot on the bottom corner of the floor
cleaning cloth and lift the floor nozzle up.

Note
Initially, the floor cleaning cloth's hook and loop fastener
strip is very strong and cannot be removed from the
floor nozzle easily. After the floor cleaning cloth has
been used several times and washed, it is easier to re-
move from the floor nozzle and it has reached the opti-
mum adhesion.
Care and service
Replacing the decalcification
ATTENTION
Device damage and shortened service life
If the replacement intervals (steam switch) for the decal-
cification cartridge are not observed, there is a risk of
device damage and the service life of the device may be
shortened.
Observe the replacement interval.
Note
The service life of the descaling cartridge corresponds
to a water flow rate of approx. 15 litres.
LED display light on the steam switch at the
end of the run time
The required replacement of the descaling cartridge is
indicated as follows:
1
1 hour before the end of the cartridge run time, the
LED display light on the steam switch flashes or-
ange for 30 seconds.

Until the descaling cartridge is completely empty,
the steam switch flashes orange for 30 seconds
each time the device is connected to the socket.
