Operation
General notes on operation
ATTENTION
Moisture
Material damage to sensitive floors
Check the surface to be cleaned for water sensitivity at
an inconspicuous location before using the device.
Do not clean water-sensitive floor coverings such as
e.g. untreated cork floors, since the moisture can pene-
trate and damage the floor.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage due to moisture and detergents as
well as the device tipping over
Risk of material damage on sensitive floors and on the
cleaning rollers due to prolonged exposure to moisture
and detergents.
Risk of material damage if the device falls over.
Always move the device to the parking position when
you take a break from work and after work.
Do not lean the device against walls, doors or other ob-
jects when setting it down.
ATTENTION
Material damage
Damage to the device from pointed, large and/or bulky
objects.
Do not use or store the device on hard, coarse dirt and
hard objects, as the parts can become jammed under
the waste water tank and can cause scratches on the
floor and waste water tank.
Before starting work and storing the device, remove ob-
jects such as shards, pebbles from the floor.
● For an optimum cleaning result, wash the cleaning
rollers in the washing machine at 60°C before initial
use.
● Work backwards towards the door so that no foot-
prints are generated on the freshly cleaned floor.
Illustration H
● The floor is cleaned by moving the device back and
forth at a speed similar to vacuum cleaning.
● Activate the Boost function for heavy soiling. To do
this, hold down the Boost function button. The roller
speed and fresh water quantity are increased when
the Boost function is activated. Allow the device to
slide slowly over the floor without exerting any pres-
sure on the device.

● Switch off the device and move it to the parking po-
sition whenever work is interrupted and at the end of
work. When the device is in the parking position, the
cleaning rollers do not touch the floor.
