Danger
Never touch the mains plug and the
socket with wet hands.
The appliance must not be used if the
power cable or important parts of the ap-
pliance, e.g. safety devices, high-pres-
sure hoses, spray guns, are damaged.
The appliance may not be used in areas
where a risk of explosion is present.
If the appliance is used in hazardous ar-
eas (e.g. filling stations) the correspond-
ing safety provisions must be observed.
Check the power cord with mains plug
for damage before every use. If the
power cord is damaged, please arrange
immediately for the exchange by an au-
thorized customer service or a skilled
electrician.
High-pressure jets can be
dangerous if improperly
used. The jet may not be
directed at persons, ani-
mals, live electrical equipment or at the
appliance itself.
The jet must not be directed at other
persons or directed by the user at him/
herself to clean clothing or footwear.
Never use the appliance to clean ob-
jects containing hazardous substances
(e.g. asbestos).
Vehicle tyres or tyre valves are suscep-
tible to damage from the high-pressure
jet and may burst. The first indication of
this is a discolouration of the tyre. Dam-
aged vehicle tyres/tyre valves are high-
ly dangerous. Ensure that a distance of
at least 30 cm is observed when clean-
ing with the jet!
Never draw in fluids containing solvents
or undiluted acids and solvents! This in-
cludes petrol, paint thinner and heating
oil. The spray mist thus generated is
highly inflammable, explosive and poi-
sonous. Do not use acetone, undiluted
acids and solvents as they are aggres-
sive towards the materials from which
the appliance is made.

Warning
Check the high-pressure hose for dam-
age before every use. Please arrange
for the immediate exchange of a dam-
aged high-pressure hose.
High-pressure hoses, fixtures and cou-
plings are important for the safety of the
appliance. Only use high-pressure hos-
es, fixtures and couplings recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
This appliance was designed to be
used with detergents which are sup-
plied or recommended by the manufac-
turer. The use of other detergents or
chemicals may compromise the safety
of the appliance.
Unsuitable extension cables can be
hazardous. Only use extension cables
outdoors which have been approved for
this purpose and labelled with a suffi-
cient cable cross section:
1 - 10 m: 1,5 mm
2
;
10 - 30 m: 2,5 mm

duced physical, sensory or mental abil-
ities or lacking experience and/or
knowledge, unless they are supervised
by a person responsible for their safety
or are instructed by these persons on
the use of the device. Children should

The operator must use the appliance
properly. When working with the appli-
ance, he must consider the local condi-
tions and pay due care and attention to
other persons, in particular children,

Observe a distance of at least 30 cm
when using the jet to clean painted sur-
faces to avoid damaging paintwork.
Cleaning operations which produce oily
waste water, e.g. engine washes, un-
derbody washes, may only be carried
out using washing stations equipped
with an oil separator.
