How to Use the Accessories

Important application instructions

Cleaning floor surfaces
It is recommended to sweep or vacuum the
floor prior to using the steam cleaner. This
way, the floor is already cleared of dirt/
loose particles prior to the wet cleaning.
Refreshing textiles
Prior to treatment with the steam cleaner,
always check the reaction of the textiles in
an inconspicuous location: Steam at first,
then let dry and then check for colour or
shape changes.
Cleaning of Coated or Lacquered
Surfaces
When cleaning painted or plastic-coated
surfaces, as found on kitchen and living
room furniture, doors, parquet; wax, furni-
ture polish, plastic surfaces or paint can
come loose or stains can be created. When
cleaning these surfaces, briefly steam a
cloth and wipe the surfaces with it.
ATTENTION
Never direct the steam jet at glued edges
as the edge band may loosen. Do not use
the steam cleaner on unsealed wooden or
parquet floors.
Cleaning of Glass
In case of low outside temperatures, espe-
cially in the winter, warm up the window
pane by slightly steaming the entire glass
surface. This will prevent tensions on the
surface which might lead to glass break-
age.
Then clean the window surface with the
hand nozzle and attachment. Use a squee-
gee to remove the water or wipe the surfac-
es dry.
ATTENTION
Do not direct steam onto the sealed loca-
tions of the window frame to prevent dam-
age.
