The appliance must only be used for the intake of dirt
and fluids (max. 250 ml).
Illustration
Before beginning your work, remove any objects, such
as shards, pebbles, screws or toy parts from the floor.
Before use, check the floor for water consistency at sus-
pect areas. Do not clean water-sensitive coatings, such
as untreated cork floors (moisture ingress is possible
which may damage the floor).

backwards towards the door.
 Hold the appliance at the handle at angle of approx.
60 degrees.
