1 Safety instructions

1.1 About the operating manual

Read this operating manual completely before working with the appliance.

Keep the operating manual in a safe place. Include the operating manual if

you pass the appliance on to someone else.

Failure to comply with these instructions can lead to serious injuries

or damage to the appliance.

We take no responsibility for damage due to failure to comply with these

operating instructions.

Always comply with the notices marked as follows to avoid accidents and

damage to the appliance.

1.2 Concerning certain groups of persons

 These appliances can be used by children of 8 years and upwards and

persons with impaired physical, sensory or mental abilities, or insufficient

experience or knowledge, providing they are supervised or have been in-

structed in the proper use of the appliance and understand the risks in-

volved.

 Children must not carry out cleaning tasks or maintenance unless they

are supervised.

 Children are not permitted to play with the appliance. Children under

the age of eight should be kept away from the appliance and the power

cord whilst it is switched on or cooling down. Packing material must not be

used to play with. There is danger of suffocation.

 People with sensory problems, especially with reduced sensitivity to

temperature differences, must use great caution when working with this ap-

pliance.

1.3 About hot steam and hot parts of the appliance

 Never direct the base of the appliance at persons, animals, or plants.

Always point the base of the appliance downwards towards the surface to

be cleaned. Even then, take care that parts of your body never get under

the base of the appliance. Never operate the appliance without wearing

shoes.

 Never lay the appliance on its side during operation. Never use the ap-

pliance in a horizontal position, let alone over your head. Never leave the

appliance on and unsupervised.

 Do not use the appliance to clean pressure containers or containers

where you are unsure of the content. There is danger of them bursting or

exploding.

 Do not point the base of the appliance at electrical devices, sockets, ca-

bles, etc. or inside ovens. Be very wary of sockets (or similar) in the floor.

There is a risk of electric shock.

 Let hot appliances and accessories, especially the micro-fibre cloth,

cool off before touching them. Carry the appliance by its handle or carrying

handle only.

 Take care not to use the steam cleaner on one spot for too long. Oth-

erwise, the surface might be damaged.

Provide adequate ventilation during and after your cleaning work.

1.4 Re: Power supply

The appliance is operated with electrical power which means there is al-

ways a risk of electric shock. Consequently, particularly comply with the fol-

lowing instructions:

 Make sure that the base of the appliance is always on the surface to be

cleaned during operation. Never lay the device on its side or operate it in

the air! Otherwise, liquid could flow into the engine and cause a short cir-

cuit!

 Keep the foot of the appliance away from the power cord when in oper-

ation. Power cords must not come into contact with any sources of heat or

damp. Otherwise there is a danger of the power cord getting damaged

which could lead to an electric shock.

 Always pull directly on the plug if you want to disconnect the appliance

from the mains. Never pull on the power cord. Never carry the appliance by

its power cord. It could be damaged.

 Always check the power cord for possible damage before using the ap-

pliance.

 Always completely uncoil the power cord before use. Take care that the

power cord is not kinked, pinched, or rolled over and ensure it does not

come into contact with heat sources.

 Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids; keep it away

from rain and moisture. Never touch the plug with wet hands.

 Only operate the appliance if your mains voltage is the same as that in-

dicated on the appliance’s type plate. The wrong voltage can destroy the

appliance.

 Only connect the appliance to 3-pole safety sockets. If possible, do not

use extension cords. If you must use an extension cord, use only safety-

certified, water-protected single extension cords (no multi-socket distribu-

tors) designed for the high power consumption of the appliance.

 Pull the plug from the socket immediately after use. Before cleaning or

performing maintenance on the appliance, ensure that the plug has been

removed from the socket.

1.5 Re: Appropriate Use

 This appliance may only be used in the household. It is not suitable for

industrial or commercial use.

Only use the appliance in households for cleaning normally dirty, flat hard

floors, e.g. tiles, stone floors, linoleum, and other smooth, coated surfaces,

that can withstand the high temperature, pressure and moisture of hot

steam.

Any other use is considered non-intended use and is prohibited. Par-

ticularly prohibited:

 To clean:

- Persons, animals or plants, including clothing that is still being worn.

- Surfaces that are dirtied by substances hazardous to health. The hot

steam could dissolve and release these substances.

- Textiles, leather, furniture, walls, glass panes, uncoated, lacquered,

oiled or waxed wood or parquet flooring, or surfaces made of soft or

shiny plastic material.

Also prohibited:

 To fill the water tank with liquids other than cold water. Additives in the

water tank, such as disinfectant, cleaning agent or fragrances make using

the appliance unsafe.

 Use:

- in the proximity of explosive, red-hot, smouldering, burning, pointed

or sharp or flammable materials, at pressure containers or containers

where you are unsure of the content.

- as a humidifier or as a space-heating system.

- in a less than fully assembled state or with accessories other than

those cited in these instructions.

- on surfaces which come into contact with food.

- with an empty water tank.

- in a horizontal position or even over your head.

- without a clean micro-fibre cloth.

- outdoors.
