ATTENTION:
Always comply with the cleaning instructions of the man-
ufacturer of the carpet. Before starting cleaning, check
whether the particular floor surface is suitable for steam
cleaning.
NOTE:
Your steam mop is not suitable for deep cleaning carpets
or for removing stubborn stains. Even adding disinfectant
cannot change this. To remove stubborn stains, we rec-
ommend, before using the steam cleaner, working on the
stain beforehand with a commercial chemical cleaner,
provided the particular flooring permits this.
1. Put the carpet glider base (Fig. 20/1) under the steam
base with the attached micro-fibre cleaning cloth. Oth-
erwise you will not be able to move back and forth effec-
tively on this surface.
2. Proceed as described in Chapter 4.3, "Steam clean-
1
ing without the addition of disinfectant" or Chapter 4.4,
"Steam cleaning with the addition of disinfectant".
WARNING:
Danger of injury! To avoid risk, keep to the following
sequence at the end of the cleaning process:
1. Pull out plug.
2. Use up steam reserves completely.
3. Put device into the neutral position.
4. Allow appliance to cool for five minutes.
5. Wind up the power cord.
6. Remove micro-fibre cleaning cloth.
7. Dry micro-fibre cleaning cloth or wash if required.
1. Put the appliance into the neutral position by straighten-
ing the handle until it is at about 90° to the steam base
(Fig. 21), you can feel it lock into place, and the appli-
ance remains standing without support.
2. Wind up the power cord, Chapter 5.1, "Winding up the
power cord".
