4. How to use the accessories
4.1 Steam gun (C1)
The steam gun can be used without any additio-
nal accessories.
Typical applications:
eliminating odours and creases in clothing:
hang the item of clothing up and apply steam
from a distance of 1020 cm.
removing dust from plants:
maintain a distance of 2040 cm.
dusting objects with a damp cloth:
apply a small amount of steam to a cloth and
wipe over the furniture.
3.2 Cleaning hard surfaces
Do not direct steam onto glued edges of objects,
otherwise the edge strip could be become deta-
ched. Do not use the steam cleaner on wood or
parquet floors that have not been sealed.
Some surfaces can change colour and texture
when treated with steam. Consult the manufac-
turers recommendations first, and always test in
a non visible place and then let it dry, to see
whether changes in colour or textures occur. In
case of doubt and on sensitive materials like
coated or painted surfaces, wood, waxed marb-
le etc. it is always better to ask your steam cle-
aner dealer for advice.
If steam is applied for too long, wax, furniture
polish, plastic coating or paint could be lifted off
or marks could be caused. You should therefore
clean these types of surface with a separate
cloth to which steam has been applied or very
briefly with a double layer of cloth attached to
the nozzle.
3.3 Cleaning glass surfaces
Do not apply steam jet directly to the sealed
parts of the window round the frame, otherwise
the seal could be damaged.
When the outside temperature is low, especially
in winter, warm the window pane by applying a
small amount of steam across the whole sur-
face of the glass. This will even out any diffe-
rences in temperature and avoid stresses in the
glass. This is important because glass surfaces
that are heated by varying amounts can shatter.
4.2 Spot nozzle (E1)
The closer you hold the nozzle to the object being
cleaned, the easier it is to remove the dirt.
Temperature and pressure are at their greatest
immediately the steam is discharged from the
nozzle.
Typical applications:
locations that are difficult to access, such as
corners and joints
taps, drains
wash-basins, WC, shower cabins
blinds, radiators
stainless steel, enamel surfaces
dissolve stains
Apply vinegar to stubborn stains caused by
scale and leave it to soak for approx. 5 min.
4.3 Floor nozzle (G1)
Attach the floor cloth (G3) to the floor nozzle
(G1). Fold the cloth lengthways and place the
floor nozzle on top. Pull the ends of the cloth
one after the other under the retaining clips
(G2) (see Fig. 3).
Fig. 3: Attaching the floor cloth
To remove the cloth, press down on the retai-
ning clips (G2) and pull it out.
Turn the floor cloth over or replace it regularly.
This will enable you to wipe up more dirt.
Work on heavily soiled areas at a slower speed
so that the steam has more time to act on the
dirt.
If there are traces of detergent or polish on the
surface that you are cleaning (e.g. wax, liquid
polish, etc.), this could result in streaks. As a
rule these streaks disappear after the steam
cleaner has been used several times.
Typical applications:
all washable wall and floor coverings, e.g. sto-
ne floors, tiles and PVC floors.
