Protect the appliance from rain. Do not store outside. Safety elements This steam cleaner is equipped with several safety devices that provide an all-round protection of the appliance. The most important safety devices are described in the following. Pressure controller The pressure controller keeps the boiler pressure during the operation as constant as possible. The heating is turned off if the maximum operating pressure of 4 bar is reached in the boiler and is reactivated in case of a pressure drop in the boiler due to steam tapping. Low-water thermostat When the water in the boiler becomes exhausted, the temperature of the heating increases. The low-water thermostat turns off the heating, and the red low-water indicator lamp lights up. The heating is prevented from being turned on again until the boiler has cooled down or refilled with water. Preparing the Appliance Unpacking the Appliance When you unpack the system, check that everything is complete (see page 3). If there are any missing parts or you detect any transport damage when unpacking, please inform your dealer immediately. Environmental protection The packaging material can be recycled. Please do not place the packaging into the ordinary refuse for disposal, but arrange for the proper recycling. Old appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled. Please arrange for the proper recycling of old appliances. Please dispose your old appliances using appropriate collection systems. Notes about the ingredients (REACH) You will find current information about the ingredients at: http://www.karcher.de/de/unternehmen/ umweltschutz/REACH.htm Safety thermostat If the boiler thermostat fails and the appliance overheats, then the safety thermostat turns off the appliance. Please contact your local KÄRCHER customer service to arrange for the reset of the safety thermostat. Safety lock The safety lock seals the boiler against the steam pressure that builds up in the boiler. If the pressure controller is defect and the steam pressure in the boiler rises, a pressure control valve in the safety lock opens, and steam is emitted through the lock to the outside. Please contact your local KÄRCHER customer service before you put the appliance into operation again. English 5 Quick Reference 1 2 3 Fill the steam cleaner with 1.2 liters of water.

How to Use the Accessories Steam gun (C1) Important application instructions You can use the steam gun without any additional accessories. Application: – elimination of odours and creases from garments: Apply steam to the hanging garment from a distance of 10–20 cm. – Removing dust from plants: Respect a distance of 20-40 cm. – dusting with a damp cloth: Apply a small amount of steam to a cloth, and then use this cloth to wipe over the furniture. Cleaning of Textiles Before you use the steam cleaner for the cleaning of textiles, you should always test the resistance of the fabrics against steam by means of cleaning a hidden spot. Apply steam to the hidden spot, and then let it dry. Check whether the colour and shape of the area have changed. Cleaning of Coated or Lacquered Surfaces 몇 WARNING Detail nozzle (D1) Never direct the steam jet at glued edges as the edge band may loosen. Do not use the steam cleaner on wooden or parquetry floors that have not been sealed. Be careful when you clean kitchen and living room furniture, doors, parquetry, lacquered or plastic-coated surfaces! Upon a longer influence of steam, wax, furniture polish, plastic coatings, or paint may come off, or stains may occur. Therefore, you should only clean such surfaces using a piece of cloth to which steam has been applied or very briefly using a double layer of cloth on the nozzle. The closer you hold the nozzle to the dirty spot, the higher the cleaning effect as temperature and pressure of the steam reach their maximum values immediately when they are emitted from the nozzle. Application: – Fittings, drains – Wash-basins, toilets – Blinds, radiators – Stain removal: Moisten stubborn limestone with vinegar, and allow to react for approximately 5 minutes. Cleaning of Glass Note: The round brush is not suited for the cleaning of delicate surfaces. The extension piece is attached to the detail nozzle. Application: – locations that are difficult to access, such as corners and joints – Fittings, drains 몇 WARNING Never direct the steam jet directly at the sealed parts of the window around the window frame to prevent damages of the sealing. In case of low outside temperatures, especially in the winter, warm up the window pane. Apply a small quantity of steam to the entire glass surface. Thus, you compensate temperature differences and avoid stresses in the glass surface. This is of importance because glass surfaces that are heated unevenly may crack. Round brush (D2) English 9 Manual nozzle (E1) Floor nozzle (H1) Pull the terry cloth cover (E2) over the manual nozzle. Application: – small, washable surfaces, such as kitchen surfaces made of plastic, tiled walls – Shower cabins, mirror – Furniture fabrics – Vehicle interior, windshields – Bath-tubs Application: – all washable wall and floor coverings, e.g.: Stone floors, tiles, and PVC floors. Î Attach the floor cloth to the floor nozzle. 1 Fold the floor cloth the long way and place the floor nozzle on top of it. 2 Open holding clamps. 3 Place the cloth ends into the openings. 4 Close the holding clamps. Caution Do not insert fingers between the clamps. Squeegee (F1) Application: – Windows, mirrors – Glass surfaces on showers – other smooth surfaces Î Perform a fat dissolving basic cleaning using the manual nozzle (E1) and a terry cloth cover (E2) before the first cleaning using the window nozzle. Î Apply steam to the glass surface from a distance of approximately 20 cm until the surface is moistened evenly. Î Strip the glass surface in straight lines from the top to the bottom using the rubber lip of the window nozzle. Wipe the rubber lip and the bottom edge of the window dry after each strip. 10 English Figure 4 Î To remove the cloth, press the retaining clips (H2), and pull out the cloth. Î Turn and exchange the floorcloth in regular intervals. Thus, you improve the ability to pick up dirt. Î Work slowly on very dirty surfaces to allow the steam to act on the dirt for a longer period of time. Î If there are residues of detergents or floor cleaning products (e.g. wax, liquid polish) on the surface to be cleaned, streaks may form during the cleaning. These streaks normally disappear after a repeated use of the steam cleaner.
