ATTENTION
Risk of damage. Only use the recommended
detergents. With other detergents, the opera-
tor bears the increased risk regarding the op-
erational safety and danger of accident.
Only use detergents that are free from sol-
vents, hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric
acid.
몇
CAUTION
Follow the safety instructions for using de-
tergents.
Note:
Do not use highly foaming detergents.
Recommended detergents:
 Open the cover of the fresh water reser-
voir.
 Fill fresh water (max. 60 °C) to below
the upper edge of the tank.
 Pour in detergent.
 Close the cover of the fresh water res-
ervoir.
Note:
Fill up the fresh water tank completely prior
to the initial start-up to bleed the water pipe
system.
With automatic fill of fresh water reser-
voir (option)
Note:
It is recommended to use a hose that is
equipped with an Aquastop coupling on the
appliance side. This minimises the spout-
ing of water when the hose is disconnected
after the filling process.
 Connect the hose to the automatic fill-
ing system and open the water supply
(max. 60 °C, max. 5 bars).
 Wait briefly - the automatic filling sys-
tem will interrupt the water supply when
the tank is full.
 Shut off the water supply and discon-
nect the hose from the appliance.
Detergent is added to the fresh water on
the way to the cleaning head with the help
of a dosaging device.
Note:
The dosing unit can be used to add 3% de-
tergent at maximum. With higher dosage
the detergent must be put into the fresh wa-
ter tank.
ATTENTION
Risk of clogging due to dried detergent when
the detergent is added to the fresh water
tank of the Dose version. The flow meter of
the dosing equipment can agglutinate on ac-
count of drying detergent and hamper the
functioning of the dosing equipment. Subse-
quently rinse the fresh water tank and the
appliance with clear water. For rinsing, se-
lect cleaning programme with application of
water at the programme selector switch. Set
the water quantity to the highest value, set
the detergent dosage to 0%
 Place the canister with the detergent in
the trough behind the seat.
 Unscrew the canister lid.
 Insert the suction hose of the dosing
equipment into the canister.
Note:

water indicator in the display. If the
fresh water tank is empty, the function
of adding detergent gets deactivated.
The cleaning head continues to work
without liquid supply.
– Detergent addition is also stopped
when the detergent canister is empty. A
message appears on the display. Only
fresh water is supplied to the cleaning
head.
The sweeper picks up loose dirt before
cleaning the floor.
ATTENTION

similar objects.
– Only drive over steps with a maximum
