Risk of electric shock

DANGER
● Never touch the mains plug and
socket with wet hands. ● Only connect the device to al-
ternating current. The voltage indicated on the type
plate must match the voltage of the power source. ● Do
not direct the steam jet directly onto equipment contain-
ing electrical components, e.g. the interior space of ov-
ens. ● Do not fill the devices with removable water
reservoir directly via the water connection while they are
connected to the mains power. Use a receptacle for fill-
ing. ● Do not use the d in swimming pools which contain
water. ● The mains plug and extension cable connec-

the mains connection cable with mains plug is undam-
aged each time before using the device. To avoid any
possible danger, a damaged mains connection cable
must be immediately replaced by the manufacturer, or
the authorised customer service department or a quali-
fied electrician. ● Do not damage the power supply and
extension cable by running over it, crushing or yanking
it or similar. Protect the power supply cable from heat,
oil and sharp edges. ● Unsuitable electrical extension
cables can be dangerous. Only use electrical extension
cables with a splash guard and a diameter of at least
2
3x1 mm . ● Only replace couplings on the power supply
or extension cable with those with the same splash
guard and the same mechanical strength. ● Clean tiled
walls with sockets carefully. ● Disconnect the device
from the mains during longer operating breaks, after use
or before performing any maintenance work.
● Only carry out servicing work when the mains plug is
pulled and the steam cleaner has cooled down.
