Storing the Appliance

Always make sure that the brushes are cold
before storing them to avoid a deformation
of the bristles.
Hang the coiled mains cable on the re-
versed parking device of the stored ex-
tension tube.
The pencil jet nozzle can be placed on
an unused tube.
Put the floor nozzle (H1) on the exten-
sion piece with the parking device.
Put the extension pieces into the large
acessory compartments (see Fig. 2).
Insert the manual nozzle (E1) into the
medium accessory bracket (see Fig. 8).

How to Use the Accessories

Important application instructions

Cleaning of Textiles
Before you use the steam cleaner for the
cleaning of textiles, you should always test
the resistance of the fabrics against steam
by means of cleaning a hidden spot. Apply
steam to the hidden spot, and then let it dry.
Check whether the colour and shape of the
area have changed.
Cleaning of Coated or Lacquered Sur-
faces
WARNING
Never direct the steam jet at glued edges as
the edge band may loosen. Do not use the
steam cleaner on wooden or parquetry
floors that have not been sealed.
Be careful when you clean kitchen and living
room furniture, doors, parquetry, lacquered
or plastic-coated surfaces! Upon a longer in-
fluence of steam, wax, furniture polish, plas-
tic coatings, or paint may come off, or stains
may occur. Therefore, you should only clean
such surfaces using a piece of cloth to which
steam has been applied or very briefly using
a double layer of cloth on the nozzle.
Cleaning of Glass
Figure 8
WARNING
Never direct the steam jet directly at the
sealed parts of the window around the win-
dow frame to prevent damages of the seal-
ing.
In case of low outside temperatures, espe-
cially in the winter, warm up the window
pane. Apply a small quantity of steam to the
entire glass surface. Thus, you compensate
temperature differences and avoid stresses
in the glass surface. This is of importance
because glass surfaces that are heated un-
evenly may crack.
