ATTENTION:
Cold Glass surfaces can shatter as a result of heat shock. Always warm
glass surfaces before directly using steam on them. Do not work on
window panes on cold days!
1. Warm the glass surface to be cleaned by applying steam from a
distance of 25 to 30 cm (10 to 12 inches) (Fig. 12/A).
2. Reduce the distance to 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 inches) to evenly cover the
glass surface with steam.

3. Switch off the steam flow and engage the child safety device on the
steam pistol.
4. Strip the water off of the glass surface with the rubber blade of the
squeegee (Fig. 12/B).
5. Wipe the rubber blade and the bottom edge of the glass surface dry
after each pass of the squeegee.
WARNING:
Danger of scalding! Never apply the steam jet directly to pieces of
clothing while they are still being worn by persons or animals!
ATTENTION:
Before refreshing upholstery or clothes, make sure that their material
and colour is suitable for steam cleaning. Always follow the cleaning
recommendations of the material manufacturers.
NOTE:
We recommend to always use the cotton cover (Fig. 13) when
refreshing upholstery or clothing as this reduces the formation of
condensation drops that can adversely affect the cleaning result.
