Notes

If there is no or not enough water in the steam boil-
er, the water pump starts and supplies water from 
the reservoir into the steam boiler. The filling pro-
cess may take several minutes.

The appliance briefly closes the valve every 60 
seconds. This will prevent the valve from sticking. 
There will be a slight audible click. The steam de-
livery is not impaired by this.

In case of water shortage, the indicator lamp "water 
shortage" glows red in the water reservoir and a signal 
can be heard.

Fill the water reservoir up to the "MAX" marking.

Notes

Every time there is not enough water in the steam 
boiler, the pump automatically supplies water from 
the water reservoir into the steam boiler. If the wa-
ter reservoir is empty, the water pump is not able to 
fill the steam boiler and the steam tapping is 
blocked.

The water pump tries to fill the steam boiler in short 
intervals. If the filling process is successful, the red 
indicator lamp goes off.

Use the selector switch for the steam volume to regulate 
the discharged steam. The selector switch has three po-
sitions: 

Set selector switch to the required steam volume.

While operating the steam switch, always direct the 
steam gun at a separate piece of cloth until the 
steam is emitted evenly.

Press the OFF switch to turn off the appliance.

Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.

Push the steam switch until steam discharge stops. 
Now, the boiler of the appliance is unpressurized.

Move the child protection unit toward the back 
(steam lever locked).

Press the cover of the appliance connector to the 
bottom and disconnect the steam plug from the ap-
pliance connector.

Empty the residual water from the water reservoir.

Put the extension pipes into the large accessory 
compartments.

Insert the manual nozzle and detail nozzle onto 
each extension pipe.

Attach the big round brush to the small detail noz-
zle.

Put the small round brush and nozzles into the me-
dium accessory compartment.

Hook the floor nozzle into the parking position.

Wrap the steam hose around the extension pipes 
and insert the steam pistol into the floor nozzle.

 It is recommended to sweep or vacuum the floor prior 
to using the steam cleaner. This way, the floor is already 
cleared of dirt/loose particles prior to the wet cleaning.

Prior to treatment with the steam cleaner, always check 
the reaction of the textiles in an inconspicuous location: 
Steam at first, then let dry and then check for colour or 
shape changes.

When cleaning painted or plastic-coated surfaces, as 
found on kitchen and living room furniture, doors, par-
quet; wax, furniture polish, plastic surfaces or paint can 
come loose or stains can be created. When cleaning 
these surfaces, briefly steam a cloth and wipe the sur-
faces with it.

ATTENTION

Never direct the steam jet at glued edges as the edge 
band may loosen. Do not use the steam cleaner on un-
sealed 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.
Then clean the window surface with the hand nozzle 
and attachment. Use a squeegee to remove the water 
or wipe the surfaces dry. 

ATTENTION

Do not direct steam onto the sealed locations of the win-
dow frame to prevent damage.

You can use the steam gun without any additional ac-
cessories, e.g.:

to remove light wrinkles from hanging clothes by 
steaming them at a distance of 10 to 20 cm.

to remove dust from plants. Here, keep a distance 
of 20-40 cm.

for moist dusting, by briefly steaming the cloth and 
wiping the furniture with it.

The closer this nozzle is to the contaminated area, the 
higher the cleaning effect, as the temperature and the 
steam are highest at the nozzle output. Especially suit-
ed for cleaning difficult access locations, joints, fittings, 
drains, sinks, toilets, blinds and heaters. Heavy lime 
scale can be drenched in vinegar prior to steam-clean-
ing. Let the vinegar penetrate for about 5 minutes.
