The appliance may only be connected to
alternating current. The voltage must
correspond with the type plate on the ap-
pliance.
!
The minimum fuse rating required at the
sokket outlet is 10 A (slow-blow).
!
To avoid accidents due to electrical
faults we recommend the use of sockets
with a line-side current-limiting circuit
breaker (max. 30 mA nominal tripping
current).
!
The plug and coupling of the extension
cable used must be watertight.
!
Always fully unroll the extension cable
from the cable drum.

Caution
Never operate the high-pressure cleaner
when the tap is turned off as dry running will
damage the HP pump.
If the water supply is not clean, the Kärcher
water filter must be used (special accessory
- order No. 4.730-059).
When fitted with the appropriate accesso-
ries, this high-pressure cleaner can draw in
surface water, e.g. from water butts or ponds
(max. suction height 0.5 m).

As the standard coupling system is not
suitable for use in suction mode, the
