Descaling The Boiler; Safety Devices; Symbols On The Machine - Kärcher SC3 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Descaling the boiler

Does not apply to SC 3 devices.
CAUTION
 Do not screw the safety lock
onto the appliance during de-
calcification.
 Do not use the steam cleaner
as long as there is decalcify-
ing agent in the boiler.
 Be careful when filling and
draining the steam cleaner
with the decalcifying solution.
The decalcifying solution can
corrode sensitive surfaces.

Safety Devices

 Safety devices protect the
user and may not be modified

Accessories steam cleaner
(depending on model)
Steam iron
DANGER
 The steam pressure iron is
hot and so is the steam jet.
 Point out to other people the
possible risk of being scalded
or burnt. Never direct the
steam jet at people or animals
(risk of scalding). Do not
touch any electrical leads or
combustible objects with the
hot steam pressure iron.
 The steam pressure iron
must not be used if it has
been dropped, shows visible
signs of damage or if it leaks.
WARNING
 The steam pressure iron
must be used and placed on a
stabile surface.
Steam turbo-brush
CAUTION
 Using the turbo steam brush
for longer periods can lead to
circulation problems in the
hand caused by hands (finger
cramps, cold fingers). Please
take a break if that happens.
 It is not possible to specify a
generally valid operation
time, since this depends on
several factors:
– Proneness to blood circula-
tion deficiencies (cold, numb
fingers).
– A firm grip impedes blood cir-
culation.
– By pauses interrupted opera-
tion is better than continuous
operation.
 In case of regular, long-term
operation of the turbo steam
brush and in case of repeated
occurrence of the symptoms
(e.g. cold, numb fingers)
please consult a physician.
