After Use / Cleaning the Device
CAUTION!
• Empty and clean the water reservoir each time after you use the device to prevent
deposits in the reservoir and thus damage to the device!
• The water reservoir cannot be opened while it is pressurised. Pull out the mains
plug and keep pressing the steam trigger until no more steam emerges from the
device. The reservoir cap can then be screwed off.
• Always pull the mains plug out of the plug socket when you are not using the device,
before you open the water reservoir or remove an attachment.
• The attachment and the water in the reservoir may still be hot shortly after use. You
should therefore wait until they have completely cooled down before you remove the
attachment or empty the water reservoir.
• Never immerse the device in water or other liquids!
• Never touch the device, the cable or the plug with wet hands.
• To extend the useful service life of the steam cleaner, it should be regularly descaled
with a standard commercial descaling agent. Note the manufacturer's instructions on
the packaging of the descaling agent.
• Do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents or cleaning pads to clean the
device. These can damage the surface.
• Empty the water reservoir: Unscrew the reservoir cap and remove it. Hold the device
over a sink or similar outlet and allow all of the water to run out of the reservoir.
• Wash the cleaning cloth and fl oor cloth after every use in accordance with the washing
instructions.
• Clean the attachments if necessary with clear, warm water.
• If necessary, wipe down the outside of the device with a soft, slightly damp cloth and
dry it with a soft cloth.
• Allow all device and accessory parts to dry completely before you store them in a
clean and dry place that is inaccessible to children.
Troubleshooting
If the device should stop working properly, fi rst check whether you are able to correct the
problem yourself.
Do not attempt to repair a defective electrical device yourself!
Problem Possible cause/solution
Water emerges from
the attachment.
• The device has not yet reached operating temperature.
Wait until the control lamp has gone out.
• Water may emerge from the attachment when you fi rst
start using it. This is normal and does not constitute a
defect with the device.
