2.4 Temperature indicator (8)
• • • • •
This indicator shows you whether you are working
within the proper temperature range (green area).
2.5 Steam gun (1)
• • • • •
The steam can be used without accessories for the
following cleaning jobs:
– Deodorising clothing and removing creases from
garments;
– Dusting houseplants (maintain a distance of
approx. 30 cm);
– Damp dusting: apply small amount of steam to
surface and then wipe dry with a clean cloth.
2.6 Spot nozzle (18)
• • • • •
The spot nozzle can be attached either
directly to the steam gun (1) or via the
extension tubes (17).
• • • • •
Because the steam temperature and
pressure are at their highest immediately
the steam leaves the nozzle, the closer you hold the
steam jet to the object to be cleaned, the better the
cleaning results will be.
• • • • •
You can use the spot nozzle with its various
attachments for cleaning the following
– areas that are hard to reach, such as corners,
joints, etc.
– venetian blinds, radiators
– toilets and sanitary installations
– stainless steel, windows, mirrors
– taps and fittings
– coated and enamelled surfaces
– initial treatment of stains.
• • • • •
Use the nozzle extension (20) to reach otherwise
inaccessible cracks and joints, etc.
• • • • •
The power nozzle (21) increases the velocity at
which the steam is discharged from the steam gun.
This makes it particularly suitable for the following,
for example:
– removing particularly stubborn dirt
– blowing steams into corners, cracks, crevices,
etc.

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.
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.
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.
