ume to regulate the discharged steam. The
selector switch has three positions:
Set selector switch to the required
steam volume.
While operating the steam switch, al-
ways direct the steam gun at a separate
piece of cloth until the steam is emitted
evenly.
Note:
The heating of the steam cleaner
is turned on in regular intervals during
the operation of the appliance in order
to maintain the pressure in the boiler at
a constant level. When the heating is
turned on, the orange indicator lamp
(heater) lights up.
Water needs to be filled into the boiler, if the
steam volume decreases during work and
no more steam is emitted in the end.

long as slight pressure remains in the boiler.

charge stops. Now, the boiler of the ap-
pliance is unpressurized.

Danger
A residual amount of steam may be emitted

when opening the safety lock, there is a risk
of scalding.
Fill the boiler with a maximum of 1 liters
of fresh tap water.
Danger
If the boiler is hot, there is the risk of scald-
ing as the water may splash back during
the filling process! Do not fill any detergents
or other additives into the boiler!
Screw the safety cap back onto the de-
vice.
Insert the mains plug into a socket.
The orange indicator lamp goes out af-
ter approximately 8 minutes.
