Crevice brush

1. The crevice brush is used for cleaning narrow gaps 

e.g. window recess and cranks in the walls.

Illustration G

Manual nozzle

The manual nozzle is used for cleaning small areas that 

can be washed down, shower cubicles and mirrors.

1. Push the manual nozzle onto the steam gun accord-

ing to the spotlight nozzle.

Illustration F

2. Pull the cover over the manual nozzle.

Floor nozzle

The floor nozzle is used for cleaning washable wall and 

floor coverings e.g. stone floors, tiles and PVC floors. 

ATTENTION

Damage due to build-up of steam

Heat and moisture can lead to damage.

Check the heat resistance and steam effect on an in-

conspicuous area using a minimal volume of steam pri-

or to use.

Note

Detergent residue or care emulsions on the surface to 

be cleaned can lead to streaks during steam cleaning, 

which will disappear however once these have been 

used several times.

We recommend sweeping the floor or vacuum cleaning 

it before using the device. In this way the floor will be 

cleared of dirt and loose particles before the wet clean-

ing commences. Work slowly on surfaces that are heav-

ily soiled so that the steam has longer to take effect.

1. Connect the extension tubes with the steam gun.

Illustration H

2. Push the floor nozzle onto the extension tube.

Illustration I

3. Fasten the floor cleaning cloth to the floor nozzle.

a Place the floor cleaning cloth with the hook and 

loop fastener strips pointing upwards on the floor.

b Place the floor nozzle onto the floor cleaning 

cloth, applying slight pressure.

Illustration J

The floor cleaning cloth will stick to the floor nozzle 

of its own accord due to the hook and loop fastener.

Removing the floor cleaning cloth

1. Place one foot on the bottom corner of the floor 

cleaning cloth and lift the floor nozzle up.

Illustration J

Note

Initially, the floor cleaning cloth's hook and loop fastener 

strip is very strong and cannot be removed from the 

floor nozzle easily. After the floor cleaning cloth has 

been used several times and washed, it is easier to re-

move from the floor nozzle and it has reached the opti-

mum adhesion.

Parking the floor nozzle

1. Hang the floor nozzle in the park bracket during 

breaks in work.

Carpet glider

The carpet glider is used for freshening up carpets.

ATTENTION

Beware of damaging the carpet glider and carpet

Contamination on the carpet glider, as well as heat and 

moisture penetration, can result in the carpet being 

damaged.

Prior to the application, also check the heat resistance 

and impact of steam on the carpet at an insignificant 

spot using as small an amount of steam as possible.

Observe the cleaning instructions from the carpet man-

ufacturer.

Prior to using the carpet glider, make sure that the car-

pet has been vacuumed and that stains have been re-

moved. 

Prior to application and following operating pauses, re-

move any possible water accumulation (condensate) in 

the appliance by means of evaporating the condensate 

into a drain (without floor cleaning cloth / with accesso-

ries).

Only use the carpet glider with a floor cleaning cloth on 

the floor nozzle.

Steam clean with a weak steam stage when using the 

carpet glider.

In order to prevent too much moistening and to avoid 

the risk of damage due to temperature effects, do not di-

rect the steam continuously onto one spot (maximum 

5 seconds).

Do not use the carpet glider on deep-pile carpets.

Fastening the carpet glider to the floor nozzle

1. For fastening the floor cleaning cloth to the floor 

nozzle, please refer to chapter

 Floor nozzle

.

Illustration J

2. Using a little force, allow the floor nozzle to slide into 

the carpet glider and engage there.

Illustration K

3. Start cleaning the carpet.

Removing the carpet glider from the floor nozzle

CAUTION

Beware of burns to your feet

The carpet glider can heat up during the steaming pro-

cess.

Do not operate or remove the carpet glider bare-footed 

or using open sandals.

Only operate or remove the carpet glider using suitable 

footwear.

1. Press the strap on the carpet glider downwards us-

ing the front of toe-capped shoes.

2. Lift the floor nozzle upwards.

Care and service

Descaling the steam boiler 

Note

Since the lime clogs the appliance, we recommend des-

caling the appliance based on the number of times the 

water reservoir is filled as specified in the table (TF=tank 

fillings).
