5. How to use the accessories
5.7 Wallpaper remover
The wallpaper remover is available
as a special accessory - see page 12
• Place the entire face of the wallpaper remo-
ver along the edge of a sheet of wallpaper.
Switch on the steam supply (C3) and allow
the steam to penetrate the wallpaper until it is
soaked through (approx. 10 seconds).
• Move the wallpaper remover to the next sec-
tion to be removed, keeping the steam switch
(C3) pressed. Use a putty knife to lift the loo-
sened wallpaper and pull it off the wall. Move
the wallpaper across the wall a section at a
time and pull the paper off in strips.
• The steam may not be able to readily pene-
trate woodchip wallpaper that has been
painted over several times. In this case we
recommend that you go over the wallpaper
with a spiked roller before steam is applied.
5.8 Steam-rotary nozzle
The rotary nozzle is available as a
special accessory - see page 12
• The rotary nozzle can be attached directly or
with the extension tubes to the steam hand-
gun, as required.
• Use the rotary nozzle for loosening stubborn
dirt over large areas.
5.5 Household iron
The household iron is available as a
special accessory - see page 12
• Firmly insert the modular accessory plug on
the iron connecting cable into the socket
(A1) above the handle on the main unit. Both
lugs on the plug must lock into the cover for
the main unit socket (A1).
Steam-ironing:
• We recommend that you use the Kärcher
Ironing Board with active steam extraction.
The ironing board has been designed to
match your new cleaner and it makes iron-
ing considerably easier and faster to do. In
any case, you should use an ironing board
which is covered with a mesh-type underlay
that enables steam to pass through.
• The temperature control should be set to at
least
•••
(steam mode) for ironing all types of
material. The steam that is then discharged
prevents the material from becoming too hot.
• The iron is ready for use as soon as the indi-
cator lamp goes out. The face of the iron
must be hot so that the steam does not con-
dense to water and drip onto the item being
ironed.
• When you press the switch on the iron,
steam is discharged out of holes in the face
of the iron. To set the iron so that steam is
discharged continuously, push the switch
towards the rear until it locks in place. If you
briefly push the switch forwards, a shot of
steam is discharged from the iron.
• Begin by directing the steam onto a piece of
cloth until there is regular flow of steam out
of the iron.
• The iron can be held upright to apply steam
to curtains, dresses, etc.
Dry-ironing:
• If you wish to iron without using steam,
switch the heater switch to OFF. The steam
supply switch must remain ON.
• Set the temperature control according to the
type of fabric that you are going to iron. The
symbols on the control have the following
meanings:
–
Synthetic fibres:
•
–
Wool:
••
–
Linen:
•••
