Caution

Use caution when filling and emptying the 
steam cleaner. The descaling solution can 
have an aggressive effect on delicate sur-
faces.

Pour the descaling solution into the boil-
er and allow it to react for approximately 
8 hours.

Warning

Do not screw the safety lock on the appli-
ance during the decalcifying.
Do not use the steam cleaner as long as 
there is decalcifying agent in the boiler.

Completely empty the descaling solu-
tion after 8 hours. A small amount of the 
solution will remain in the boiler. There-
fore, you should rinse the boiler two to 
three times with cold water to remove 
any residues of the descaler.

Completely empty the steam boiler to 
remove existing water (see fig.  ).

Note: 

The floorcloth and the terry cloth cov-

er have been pre-washed and can be used 
immediately for working with the steam 
cleaner.

You can wash dirty floorcloths and terry 
cloth covers in the washing machine at 
60°C. Do not use a liquid softener as 
this would affect the ability of the cloths 
to pick up dirt. You may tumble dry the 
cloths.

Often, failures have simple causes and you 
can do the troubleshooting yourself using 
the following overview. If you are in doubt 
or if the failure is not listed here please con-
tact the authorized customer service.

Danger

Always disconnect the mains plug and al-
low the steam cleaner to cool down before 
performing any maintenance work.
Repair works may only be performed by the
