Danger of scalding! After you switch off the device, hot steam may continue to emerge for a
few seconds! Be careful!
❐
Always switch off the device and pull the mains plug from the plug socket before you remove
the
fl
oor cleaning cloth or change the nozzle.
Always pull the plug and never the cable!
❐
Danger of scalding! The
fl
oor cleaning cloth / carpet glider / nozzle may be very hot during and
shortly after use. You should therefore wait for a few minutes until the cloth / glider / nozzle has
cooled down completely before you remove it.
❐
Beware of material damage! Very cold glass surfaces (windows in winter) must not be cleaned
with the device.
❐
Before using the device, always check the
fl
oor cleaning cloth and the carpet glider for signs of
wear. Do not use them if they have visible signs of wear or are damaged. Your
fl
ooring could
be damaged.
❐
Use the device only if it is in good working order and has been fully assembled and the
fl
oor
cleaning cloth has been attached for cleaning
fl
oors.
❐
Never direct the steam on one spot for longer than around 10 seconds without interruption.
This may damage the surface.
Cleaning the Floor
We recommend that, before using the device, you sweep the
fl
oor with a broom or
vacuum it using a vacuum cleaner.
1. Attach the handle rod with the handle and the cleaning foot to the main unit. Attach to the
cleaning foot the
fl
oor cleaning cloth and, if you want to clean a carpet, the carpet glider (see
the "Assembling the Device" chapter).
2. Fill the water reservoir (see the "Filling the Water Reservoir" chapter).
3. To unwind the mains cable, turn the upper hook for winding up the cable downwards. Hook the
mains cable into the cable holder so that you can handle the steam mop more easily and do not
trip over the cable while cleaning the
fl
oor.
4. Place the device in an upright position. The joint of the cleaning foot locks in place in a vertical
position.
5. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed mains socket that is easily accessible.
6. Switch on the device by pressing the On/Off switch. The control lamp on the On/Off switch
lights up red as soon as the device starts the heating-up process. Wait until the device has
reached operating temperature and the control lamp lights up blue. You can now start cleaning
the
fl
oor.
7. Hold the device by the handle and lower it gently towards the
fl
oor to release the locked
standing position.
8. Slide the cleaning foot slowly back and forth over the
fl
oor. The
fl
oor is cleaned as you do this.
9. If during use no steam or only a small amount of steam is generated, check whether there is
suf
fi
cient water in the water reservoir and top it up again. Before you top up the reservoir,
press the On/Off button, pull the mains plug out of the plug socket and then top up the water
reservoir in the manner described in the "Filling the Water Reservoir" chapter. Then carry on
cleaning the
fl
oor.
10. Once you have
fi
nished cleaning the
fl
oor, press the On/Off switch and pull the mains plug out
of the plug socket.
Always pull the plug and never the cable!
