General Information

Safety Equipment

When the spary gun is closed, the overflow
valve switches off the appliance via a pressure-
operated switch. The overflow valve is also a
safety device against exceeding the maximum
allowable working pressure.

Spare Parts

A selection of the most common spare parts
numbers is listed at the end of these operating
instructions.

Guarantee

The terms and conditions of guarantee issued
by a national Kärcher Company are valid in the
relevant country.

If the appliance malfunctions in any way, the
fault will be rectified free of charge within the
period of the guarantee provided the malfunction
is due to faulty material or a manufacturing error
and all the terms and conditions are met.

Troubleshooting

! Note: 

Disconnect the appliance from the

power mains before all repair work.

Appliance does not Work

- Check whether the voltage shown on the

rating plate corresponds to that of the power
source.

- Check the connector cable for damage.

Appliance does not reach
Operational Pressure

- Vent the appliance:Allow the pump to

operate without the high-pressure hose until
water appears at the high-pressure outlet
without any more bubbles.Then reattach the
high-pressure hose.

- Clean the strainer in the water connection.
- Check the inlet water flow rate.
- Check all inlet pipes to the pump for leaks or

block-age.

Strong Pressure Fluctuations

- Clean the high-pressure nozzle.

Remove dirt from the nozzle hole with a
needle and then rinse out with water from the
front.

Pump Leaks

- 10 drops per minute are permissible. In the

case of more serious leakage, you should
contact the authorized customer service.

No Detergent Suction

- Set the double nozzle to low pressure.
- Clean the detergent suction hose with filter,

and check for leaks.
