Re: Appropriate Use
This appliance may only be used in households. It is not
suitable for industrial or commercial use.
Only use the steam mop in households for cleaning nor-
mally dirty, flat hard floors, e. g. tiles, stone floors, linoleum,
and other smooth, coated surfaces, that can withstand the
high temperature, pressure and moisture of hot steam.
If the carpet glider base is in place, the steam mop can
also be used to refresh short-pile carpets, runners, etc.
Any other use is considered inappropriate and is pro-
hibited.
It is especially forbidden:
To clean:
- Persons, animals or plants, including clothing that is
still being worn.
- Surfaces that are dirtied by substances hazardous to
health. The hot steam could dissolve and release
these substances.
- Textiles, leather, furniture, walls, window panes, un-
coated, lacquered, oiled or waxed wood or parquet
flooring, or surfaces made of soft or shiny plastic ma-
terial. These might be damaged.
Use:
- in the proximity of explosive and flammable materials,
