Parking the floor nozzle
Illustration
During work breaks, hook the floor noz-
zle into the parking holder.
Wallpaper remover (optional)
You can use the wallpaper remover with
the steam cleaner to remove paper wallpa-
pers.
Place the entire surface of the wallpa-
per remover along the edge of a strip of
wallpaper. Switch on the steam supply
and allow the steam to act on the wall-
paper until it is completely soaked (ap-
proximately 10 seconds).
Move the wallpaper remover to the next
piece of wallpaper you want to remove.
Hold the steam switch pressed while
you move the tool. Lift the soaked piece
of wallpaper using a flat trowel, and pull
it off the wall. Move the wallpaper re-
mover from strip to strip, and pull the
wallpaper off in strips.
In case of woodchip wallpaper that has
been painted several times, the steam
may not be able to soak the wallpaper.
Thus, we recommend to prepare the
wallpaper using a spiked roller before
steam is applied.
Maintenance and care
Danger
Always disconnect the mains plug and al-
low the steam cleaner to cool down before
performing any maintenance work.
Rinsing the boiler
Rinse the steam cleaner boiler at the latest
after 10 boiler fillings.
Fill the boiler with water and shake it
strongly. This dissolves lime scaling re-
siding on the boiler bottom.
Empty water out.

Descaling the boiler
Note: If you always use usual commercial
distilled water it is not necessary to descale
the boiler.
As limescale builds up on the boiler walls,
we recommend to descale the boiler in the
following intervals (RF=reservoir fillings):
Degree of hardness ° dH
I
soft
II medium
III hard
IV very hard
Note: Please contact your Conservancy
Board or the local water supply company to
inquire about the hardness of your water.
Disconnect the mains plug from the
socket.
Allow device to cool down.
Remove the safety cap from the device.
Completely empty the steam boiler to
remove existing water (see fig.
Warning
Only use products approved by KÄRCHER
to exclude any damages of the appliance.
User the KÄRCHER decalcifier sticks
(order no. 6.295-047) to decalcify the
water. Please follow the dosing instruc-
tions on the packaging while using the
decalcifying solution.
Caution
Use caution when filling and emptying the
steam cleaner. The descaling solution can
have an aggressive effect on delicate sur-
faces.
Pour the descaling solution into the boil-
er and allow it to react for approximately
8 hours.
Warning
Do not screw the safety lock on the appli-
ance during the decalcifying.
