The water reservoir may be refilled at any
time.
ATTENTION
Do not use condensation water from the
drier!
Do not fill with detergent or other additives
(for example fragrances)!
Fill the water tank with a maximum of 1
litre of fresh tap water.
ATTENTION
In order to guarantee the optimum function-
ality of the descaler cartridge, the device
must be set to the local water hardness pri-
or to the first operation.
Further information concerning the device
setting can be found in Chapter "Effect
descaler cartridge and setting of water
hardness".
Place the unit securely on a firm sur-
face.
Insert the mains plug into a socket.
Press the ON switch to turn on the ap-
pliance.
Indicator lamp glows green.
The device is ready for use after ap-
prox. 30 seconds.
Note
During the first steaming after removal and
reinserting the cartridge the blast of steam
can still be a little weak. The device re-
quires a short break-in period, as the car-
tridge has to be filled with water first. This is
why the steam discharge is unsteady at first
and single water drops may exit. The
amount of escaping steam increases con-
tinuously until the maximum amount is
reached after approx. 30 seconds.
In case of a water shortage in the water
tank, the water shortage indicator light is
continuously on.
Fill the water reservoir
The descaler cartridge remains fixated
in the device.
Notes
Fill in the water via the lid of the descal-
er cartridge. This way a steady steam
output is always guaranteed.
As soon as the water tank is filled with
water again, the red indicator light goes
out.
The device is equipped with a dry run
protection for the pump. Should the
pump run dry for a longer period of time,
e.g. because of an incorrectly installed
cartridge, the pump switches off and the
indicator light for water shortage flashes
red.
In order to operate the device again, the
device must be switched off and back
on. In the process it must be ensured
that the cartridge is inserted correctly
and there is enough water in the water
tank.
Use the selector switch for the steam vol-
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.
If the device is not used for more than 20
minutes, please switch off the device for
energy conservation purposes.
Press the OFF switch to turn off the ap-
pliance.
