Fasten the power nozzle to the detail
nozzle.
Insert the manual nozzle and detail noz-
zle onto each extension pipe.
Put the extension pipes into the large
acessory compartments.
Put the round brush into the medium
acessory compartments.
Hook the floor nozzle into the parking

Prior to treatment with the steam cleaner,
always check the reaction of the textiles in
an inconspicuous location: Steam heavily
at first, then let dry and then check for col-
our or shape changes.
Be careful when you clean kitchen and liv-
ing room furniture, doors, parquet, lac-
quered or plastic-coated surfaces. The
wax, furniture polish, plastic surfaces or
paint can come loose or stains can be cre-
ated. Therefore, always clean these surfac-
es with a steamed cloth only.
Caution
Never direct the steam jet at glued edges
as the edge band may loosen. Do not use
the steam cleaner on unsealed wooden or
parquet floors.
In case of low outside temperatures, especially
in the winter, warm up the window pane by
slightly steaming the entire glass surface. This
will prevent tensions on the surface which might
lead to glass breakage.
Caution
Do not direct steam onto the sealed loca-
tions of the window frame to prevent dam-
age.
