Hot water can drip out of accessories while
you are detaching them. Do not detach acces-
sories while steam is being discharged danger
of scalding!
2.3 Filling up with water
Unscrew the safety cap (A2) on the main unit.
Pour a maximum of 1.2 litres of tap water into
the boiler. The boiler can be filled up to approx.
2 cm below the edge of the filler neck. Heating-
up time can be shortened by using hot water.
Do not add pour any detergents or other additi-
ves into the boiler.
Screw the safety cap back onto the cleaner
(A2).
2.4 Switching the cleaner ON
Plug the cleaner into a mains socket.
Do not switch the cleaner on if there is no water
in the boiler, otherwise it could overheat. As a
safety measure, the cleaners heater switches
off automatically and the low-water warning
lamp (A6 illuminates. In order to be able to use
the cleaner again, wait approx. 10 minutes for it
to cool down and then fill the boiler with water
(see 2.6 Filling up with water).
Switch the heater switch (A5) to ON. The indi-
cator light is on.
After env. 7 min. the cleaner is ready for use.
Switch off the heater (A5) before moving the
cleaner.
When you press the steam switch, steam is di-
scharged from the nozzle. Begin by pointing the
steam gun at a cloth until a steady flow of steam
comes out of the nozzle.
2.5 Regulating the volume of steam
The amount of steam can be regulated accor-
ding to requirement by adjusting the steam
switch (C3) on the steam gun.
The steam control (C4) can choose to the follo-
wing positions:
in front  no steam
to the middle  half volume of steam
back max. volume of steam
2.6 Refilling with water
Note: When the water in the boiler has been used up,
the low-water warning lamp (A6) will illuminate. The
safety cap (A2) cannot be opened while there is any
pressure at all in the boiler.
Turn off the heater switch (A5).
Press the steam switch (C3) on the steam gun
(C1) and hold it pressed until steam is no lon-
ger discharged from the nozzle. There will then
be no pressure inside the boiler.
Unscrew the safety cap (A2) from the cleaner.
If the cleaner has been in continuous use for a
long time, the safety cap (A2) may be hot!
Pour a maximum of 1.2 litres of tap water into
the boiler.
If the boiler is still hot, there is a risk that water
will be squirted back while it is being poured into
the boiler and cause scalding.
Firmly screw the safety cap (A2) back onto the
cleaner. Turn on the heater switch (A5) again.
2.7 Switching the cleaner OFF
Switch off the heater (A5) switch.
Unplug the cleaner from the mains.
Pull out the accessory plug by pressing the re-
lease button (see fig. 2).

aner.
3. Information on usage
3.1 Cleaning textiles
Before you use the steam cleaner on textiles
including delicate fabrics like Dralon, velvet,
leather and items protected by Scotch Guard or
any similar substance, you should always test
that the material is resistant to steam by app-
lying it to a section not normally visible.
Apply steam to the concealed section and then
leave it to dry. Check to see that the colour and
shape have not been affected before moving to
a visible area. In case of doubt it is always bet-
ter to consult your steam cleaner dealer.
Use only the steam gun without attachments to
apply steam from 30-45cm on these delicate
fabrics, then wipe off with a cotton cloth.
