4. Safety devices
4.3 Safety thermostat
If the low-water thermostat fails and the cleaner
overheats, then the safety thermostat switches the
whole unit off. Contact your authorised KÄRCHER
Customer Service agent so that the safety
thermostat can be reset.
4.4 Safety cap
The safety cap seals off the boiler and keeps the
steam pressure inside. If the pressure controller
becomes defective, and the pressure inside the
boiler rises above 5.5 bar, an overpressure valve
opens inside the safety cap, and steam escapes
into the open. Contact your authorised KÄRCHER
Customer Service agent before using the cleaner
again.
This steam cleaner has been fitted with various
safety devices to provide multiple protection
measures. The most important safety components
are described below.
4.1 Pressure controller
The pressure controller maintains the boiler
pressure at as constant a level as is possible while
the cleaner is in use. The heater is switched off
when the operating pressure inside the boiler
reaches its maximum of 3.2 bar, and switched on
again when the pressure drops as a result of steam
being drawn off.
4.2 Low-water thermostat
As the water inside the boiler is consumed, the
temperature around the heater rises. The low-
water thermostat switches the heater off, and the
red low-water warning lamp lights up. The heater
is prevented from switching on again until the boiler
has cooled down, or it has been refilled with water.
