Caution!
Use the recommended detergents
only. If other detergents are used, the
operator increases the risk of malfunctions
and accidents.
Detergents must not contain solvents,
hydrochloric acid or hydrofluoric acid.
Information:
Do not use detergents which foam
vigorously.
Before switching on the unit for the first
time, completely fill the fresh-water tank in
order to vent the water line system.

food companies) and if giving very dirty
floors a basic cleaning.

When the fresh-water tank is empty and
the dirty-water tank is full, set the rotary
knob to recycling mode.
Information:
Dirty water is filtered before being
reused.
Recycling mode requires a feed pump
which conveys the fresh and recycled water
to the brushes.
If the fresh water goes directly into the dirty-
water tank, recycling mode can be actuated
at the start of the cleaning process.
