Safety Notes
General Safety Notes
•All equipment undergoes final inspection and testing before leaving our factory. However,
if equipment is damaged during shipping or through any other circumstances, it must not
be used in service. Please check the device regularly for damages. Damaged parts
should be replaced immediately.
•All power/air/water/gas sources should be rated for the demands of the device as listed in
the technical data sheets. Maximum ratings must not be exceeded. All VDE (Verein
Deutscher Elektro-Ingenieure) standards should be followed. Equipment should be
grounded according to standards.
•Adherence to valid regulations regarding necessary checks (e.g. according to Accident
Prevention & Insurance or electrical equipment) is exclusively taken over by the
buyer/user of this product.
•This device has been designated to be used only for its intended purpose. All other
applications must be prohibited for safety reasons as otherwise the manufacturer’s
warranty expires.
•The device should be set-up in a clean, well-ventilated room, if necessary under a hood.
•Supporting surfaces should be straight, flat and adequately stable.
•Don’t place anything on top of the machine.
•To avoid injury, appropriate protection should be worn (e.g. gloves, safety glasses, safety
shoes, hearing protection etc.)
•If the machine is defective or working improperly it must be taken out of service. In case
of further use of the machine the owner will be held responsible for any consequential
damage.
•To prevent accidents from water, fire or explosion, all power/air/water/gas sources should
be turned off after working hours and during breaks, and secured against unauthorized
access.
•When carrying out maintenance works or repairs or when opening the device always turn
off the main power switch and unplug the whole unit.
•Repairs should be carried out only by the manufacturer or by qualified and certified
personnel appointed according to chapter 7 –warranty.
•In case of leaking water out of housing or tank shut down device and call service.
•Check all hose joints for tightness, if necessary fasten clamps.

Specific Safety Notes
Note:
•Keep a safe distance of at least 100 cm from the safety valve (Back oft he device) to
circulation areas or workplaces –Danger of scalding.
•Ground yourself by laying your flat hand on the steam cleaner’s housing. (Gases or
fluids glowing through pipes generate static electricity. For safety reasons static
electricity is discharged during evaporation by the contact screw at the steam gun’s
handle. If the user gets an electric shock when touching the device or the steam gun,
the person was exposed to static electricity before. The combination of floor covering
and shoe soles is often the reason, falling outside the sphere of influence of the steam
cleaner’s manufacturer.)
•We recommend to fill the device only with decalcified or distilled water (damage due to
limescale deposits is not covered by warranty). Decalcification is depending on water
hardness: every one or two weeks. Verwenden Sie hierfür handelsübliche
Entkalkungsmittel und beachten Sie die Herstellerangaben und Vorschriften. It’s not
necessary when always using distilled water (we recommend to use our water softening
device DELIMER COMFORT –see “special accessories”).
•The steam jet is only to be aimed at objects to be cleaned, never at living beings.
•Only clean appropriate objects ggf. an Muster oder auf unauffälliger Stelle testen.
•The tank cap (6) may only be onpened when the device isn’t under pressure
•The device must not be filled under full heating power and empty tank (danger of
scaling).
•The device should be filled up every morning when it’s in a cold state, protecting the heat
aggregates as well as the gaskets. An unwanted interruption of operation is also avoided.
•In case of leaking water out of the housing or tank further use of the device is prohibited
(see chapter 5 troubleshooting).

Installation
The equipment delivered is ready for immediate use. The sealed plug can be connected
directly to the mains supply 230 V/16 A. For installation please refer to chapter 2.
Operation
Chronological run of operation
1. Operate the device only when it’s filled with water. (Pay attention to safety notes in
chapter 2) In order to avoid an unwanted dry-run, a daily filling in the morning is
recommended. Turn the heating controller (5) completely to the left (if necessary ventilate
tank by activating steam gun). Note: Fill the device only in a cold state. Open the tank
cap (6) and fill in distilled or decalcified water up to the edge (a filling funnel is
recommended). Close the tank cap (6) and hand-tighten it.
2. Turn the device on with the switch POWER (2). Set heating control (5) to max. If you
don’t set heating controller to max., the “low water level“indicator lamp lights up (4)
despite a filled tank. However the device is ready for operation, but at a low temperature.
The heating starts automatically. After approx.18 min., pressure has been achieved and
the indicator lamp goues out if the heating controller was is set to max..
3. Start the hose heating with the switch HEATING (3) ein.
4. The maximum steam pressure can be modified with the heating controller (5). (Pressure
is only built up in the upper quadrant of the controller range. Pressure is built up with
delay.)
5. Open the steam valve to take out dry steam (1).
6. Device needs refilling: indicator lamp (4) lights up. For refilling please adhere to chapter 4
Notes for the User, item 1. If the control lamp does not turn off automatically after filling,
please press the temperature limiter (11).

10
Decalcifying the device when not using distilled water
1. Turn switch POWER (2) off.
2. Let the device cool itself down and empty the tank.
3. Fill the tank with decalcifier according to manufacturer’s instructions!
4. Close tank cap (6).
5. Turn switch POWER (2) on. As soon as the pressure starts building up turn down heating
controller (5).
6. Let the device cool down. Release pressure and empty the tank.

11
Troubleshooting
Device cannot be switched on.
a. Check fuse of the building.
b. Check device’s fuse
Safety valve (10) opens or water leaks out.
a. Turn the control unit (5) down and call
customer service. ATTENTION: If
used, do not remove cover and do
not close opening.
b. Tank is overfilled →drain off some
water.
Control lamp (7) shines although there’s
enough water in the tank.
Temperature limiter (11) or control unit (5)
might be released →Set control unit to
max and push temperature limiter back in
again after cooling down - for this purpose
remove black protective cap
Tank cap (6) can hardly be opened.
Ventilate tank by activating steam gun
switch „hot water“ (18)
Tank cap (6) untight.
→Replace cap or seal.
No steam.
a. Cold water was refilled and device is
heating up.
b. Device is calcified, blocked valve,
switches or valves defective →Call
customer services.
No steam pressure.
1. Regulator (5) was not set to max.
Pistol drips.
Device might be calcified or the valve
blocked →
Decalcify or use distilled water.
Electric shocks when using the steam gun
Touch the contact screw (15) on steam
gun while jetting (see chapter 2.2
Specific Safety Notes).
High wear of seals.
→Prior to heating up ventilate tank by
activating steam gun switch „hot water“
(18).
Device doesn’t work after turning it on,
main switch (2) doesn’t shine.
No power at the socket →check fuse for
the building.
Device’s fuse has blown.
→Press overcurrent protection
knob/device’s fuse knob (12) in.
Short circuit
Water in housing: shut down the device and
call customer service.
Attention: Water temperature might be up
to 160°C –Danger of scalding!

12
Maintenance
•Regularly check the device’s state. Pay attention to visible damage to housing or power
cord.
•When using hard water we recommend regular decalcification (chapter 4: Notes for the
user, 4.2 Decalcifying the device when not using distilled water).
•Clean the housing regularly with a moist cloth.
Note
Clean and protect your device regularly with the REITEL stainless steel care spray
(Order-No.: 90405000) to remove lime plaster and dust as well as other contaminants
from the surface of equipment and to prevent corrosion. The spray creates a lasting,
water repellent protective film which helps keep the equipment clean.
