Illustration
Place one foot on the bottom corner of the floor
cleaning cloth and lift the floor nozzle up.
NOTICE
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.
Illustration
During work breaks, hook the floor nozzle into the
parking holder.
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 carpet has been vacuumed and that stains have
been removed.
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 direct the steam continuous-
ly onto one spot (maximum 5 seconds).
Do not use the carpet glider on deep-pile carpets.
Illustration
For fastening the floor cleaning cloth to the floor
nozzle, please refer to chapter Floor nozzle.
Illustration
Using a little force, allow the floor nozzle to slide
into the carpet glider and engage there.
Start cleaning the carpet.

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.
Illustration
Press the strap on the carpet glider downwards us-
ing your toecap.
Lift the floor nozzle upwards.
Rinse the steam cleaner boiler at the latest after 10 boil-
er fillings.
Fill the boiler with water and shake it strongly. This
dissolves lime scaling residing on the boiler bottom.
Illustration
Empty water out.
Note:
If you always use usual commercial distilled water it is
not necessary to descale the boiler.
As limescale builds up on the boiler walls, we recom-
mend to descale the boiler in the following intervals
(RF=reservoir fillings):
Note
The hardness of the tap water can be inquired at your
water management office or the municipal utilities.
Illustration
Turn off the appliance.
See Chapter „Turning Off the Appliance“.
Allow device to cool down.
Remove the safety lock from the device.
Illustration
Completely empty the water tank to remove exist-
ing water.
Use KÄRCHER decalcifying agents for descaling.
Please follow the dosing instructions on the pack-
aging when preparing the descaler.
ATTENTION
Use caution when filling and emptying the steam clean-
er. The descaling solution can have an aggressive ef-
fect on delicate surfaces.
Completely empty the descaling solution after 8
hours. A small amount of the solution will remain in
the boiler. Therefore, you should rinse the boiler
two to three times with cold water to remove any
residues of the descaler.
