3.2 Warnings
• The appliance may only be operated by people who are familiar with its use.
Remember that the steam jet may cause damage if used incorrectly.
• The appliance must not be used by children. Children do not understand the
risks that may arise when dealing with electrical equipment and, therefore,
children must never be left unattended with such equipment.
• Never use a faulty appliance or an appliance with a damaged power cable.
• Do not put cleaning agents, perfume or other chemical substances into the
tank.
• Warning! Do not suction flammable or explosive substances or hot ash!
• Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. Never spray the appli-
ance with water.

• Never aim the steam jet at people or animals. Nor at electrical sockets, con-
nections or equipment. Risk of burning!
• Do not use the appliance if other people are present in the working area.
• Refrain from any unsafe working methods.
• Do not use the steam jet for direct cleaning of electronic equipment (e.g. com-
puters, televisions, telephones etc.).
• Before cleaning ovens, fridges etc. always disconnect the power first to ensure
these are switched off. You must follow the manufacturers' specific instruc-
tions.
• Warning! The appliance may not be used to clean items that contain asbestos
or other harmful substances.
• Caution! In the following instances steam may not be used or may only be
used with the greatest care: on objects made from leather, Alcantara, velours
or other sensitive materials, on waxed or painted surfaces, polished wood sur-
faces and for direct contact with bonding agents or silicone. Please always
follow the manufacturer's instructions. For sensitive materials carry out a test
first on a sample or on an inconspicuous, concealed area. Always start on the
lowest setting. Pre-heat windows or other glass surfaces with a low steam
setting from a distance of approx. 30 cm and clean in combination with suc-
tion.
3.3 Precautionary measures
• Operation of the appliance is subject to national regulations.
• Always ensure the appliance is in proper working order before starting up.
• Perform regular checks on the power cable, plug and steam suction hose for
damage or signs of wear.
• Do not start the appliance if the steam suction hose or power cable are da-
maged.
• Place the appliance on a stable and level surface. Never place it on warm or
hot surfaces. Choose somewhere that is not accessible to children or pets.
• Do not position the appliance in direct proximity to heat sources (fires, heaters
or other heat-emitting objects).
• Position the appliance somewhere with good air circulation to prevent over-
heating.
• Never expose the appliance to the weather (rain, snow, frost etc.).
• Never touch the appliance, plug or electrical cables with wet hands or feet.
• Do not bend, squeeze or run over the steam suction hose.
• Never pull on the power cable or on the appliance itself when disconnecting
the mains plug.
• Protect the power cable from heat sources, steam and oil, and from damage
by avoiding pulling, squeezing or running over the cable.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to the mains.
• To prevent unauthorised use of the appliance, ensure all switches are off and
the power is disconnected during breaks.
• Always disconnect from the mains before cleaning and maintenance work.
• Only perform maintenance work that is described in the User Manual. Only use
original spare parts and accessories.
• Do not undertake any technical modifications on the appliance.
• Never repair or open the appliance yourself. Repairs may only be performed
by authorised personnel.
• Take the appropriate precautions when using acidic descaling agents. Protect
sensitive surfaces, especially natural stone and wood, from spray and droplets.
• Some drops of condensation may form at the start of steam cleaning – wipe
these up with a cloth.
INFO: To minimise the occurrence of condensation (caused when the steam
hose and attachments are not at operating temperature) it is recom-
mended that you allow the steam to flow for a few seconds on the
maximum setting before starting the cleaning work. This ensures the
steam hose and attachments heat up more quickly.

Hot water module descaling

Entkalkungsanleitung B
Use of the hot water module causes lime scale to form over time depending on the hardness of the
water used. To prevent a fault caused by lime scale in the steam hose we recommend that you
descale regularly.
Warning! Descalers can be harmful. Read the information on the descaler packaging and follow the
safety instructions.
Descalers or vinegar may cause damage to surfaces. Wipe up drops immediately. Only use suitable
and recommended descalers.
1. Preparation
Remove the sound-proofing casing on the underside
of the appliance. To remove, loosen the middle fixing
screw by hand, which will enable you to fold down,
detach and remove the sound-proofing casing.
Place a suitable container under the appliance and open
the drain plug by turning it to the left with the included
Inbus key (label yellow ring “Hot Water Extraction”). Drain
the reservoir and then screw the drain plug back in and
tighten slightly.
Descaling instructions hot water module
Up to 2 litres of water may flow from the drain plug if the reservoir is full.
The steam hose does not have to be descaled if you use decalcified water.
Error, cause remedy
… no steam or hot water is produced when the steam lever is pressed.
Check whether the hose nozzle in the steam suction hose connector is dogged with
lime scale. If it is, proceed as follows:

2. Descaling
Mix 0.2 litres of vinegar essence and 0.3 litres of tap
water in a measuring cup.
Open the cap for hot water “Hot Water Extraction” and
pour in the vinegar mixture.
Insert the steam suction hose into the appliance.
Now connect the appliance to the mains and press
button (A) on the display. The appliance switches on
and begins to heat. Now press button (C) to activate
the hot water module. The symbol (N) begins to flash.
Set the control valve for hot water to max. (+) by turning

button (T4) to switch on the hot water module.
Hold the handle over a suitably sized container to catch
the mixture. Now press steam lever (P) until all the
vinegar-water mix has rinsed through. Press the lever
at short intervals if there is heavy limescale. This
increases the impact duration of the mixture and the
lime scale is dissolved.
