Safety devices
Safety devices serve to protect against injuries and
must not be changed or circumvented.
Relief valve with pressure switch
When the lever on the handgun is released the pres-
sure switch switches off the pump and the high-pres-
sure jet ceases. When the lever is pulled the pres-
sure switch switches on the pump again.
Moreover, the relief valve prevents the permissible
operating pressure from being exceeded.
Safety button
The safety button on the handgun prevents inadver-
tent switching on of the unit.
Environmental protection
Dispose of packaging
The packaging materials are recyclable. Please hand
in the packaging for recycling.
Dispose of old equipment
In the development of this appliance careful atten-
tion has been given to its ability to be easily recycled.
Nevertheless, it contains parts or substances which
should not go into the household rubbish. You can
obtain information from any Kärcher sales house about
disposal facilities which protect the environment.
Save water
In comparison to other cleaning methods, by the use
of this unit you save up to 85 % of the water other-
wise needed. The unit can also be operated with rain-
water (use a water filter).
Ease the burden on waste water
Please use the cleaning agents sparingly. Observe
the dosage recommendations which are supplied
with the cleaning agents.
Before first use
Assembly
When unpacking check the contents. Inform your
dealer of any damage in transportation.
Connection requirements
Electrical connection
The voltage shown on the rating plate must match
the supply voltage. The current source must be pro-
perly earthed.
Only use splash-protected extension cable with a
sufficient conductor cross-section (10 m: 3 x 1.5 mm²,
30 m: 3 x 2.5 mm²) and unwind completely from the
cable drum.
Connection to water line
Comply with the stipulations of the water supply com-
pany.
Only use supply hoses (not supplied) with the follo-
wing dimensions: length at least 7.5 m, diameter at
least ½”.

Operation
!
Serious danger!
Vehicle tyres and tyre valves can be damaged by
the high-pressure jet and become perforated. The
first sign of this is a discoloration of the tyre. When
cleaning them maintain a distance of at least 30 cm.
Never grasp the power plug with wet hands.
Before each use check the power cord and power
plug for damage. Have a damaged power cord re-
placed immediately by an authorized Kärcher ser-
vice point or an electrical specialist.
Before each use check the high-pressure hose for
damage. Replace a damaged high-pressure hose
immediately.
!
Danger of injury!
Owing to the water jet emerging from the high-pres-
sure nozzle a recoil force operates on the handgun.
Ensure you have a secure footing and hold the hand-
gun and spray lance firmly.
If necessary wear protective clothing for protection
against return spray.
