HINTS ON THE USE OF YOUR APPLIANCE
To sanitase your home environments, we recommend steam cleaning at least once a week.
When the red control lamp (8) comes on, it means that water is running out and you should fill
the boiler tank immediately as described in "Setting the appliance ready for use".
Very dirty floors:
Begin first with the steam cleaning (use the multifunction swivel brush (i) with the rubber lip attachment
(l)). For the cleaning of very dirty floors, first switch on the steam to loosen the dirt. Then stop the
steam and vacuum the floor.
Normally Dirty Floors:
With normally dirty floors, work simultaneously with the steam and vacuum functions (use the
multipurpose swivwl brush (i) with the bristled frame and rubber lip attachments (l)).
Move the brush constantly in one direction (either toward the body or away from the body). After
finishing the cleaning work, switch off the steam at the on/off button (e) but leave the vacuum
function switched on (f) for another moment so that the dirty water remaining in the ducts can be
transported into the dirty water tank.
Please Note:
If the steam function is to be used on flooring that requires a cleaning product, such as marble or
PVC, we recommend the use of a terry cloth towel over the floor tool. Adjust the steam volume to
the surface which is to be treated by operating the handwheel (7).
Rugs and Carpeted Floors:
The machine can deeply clean dust away from all types of rugs and carpeted floors.
To do so, use the multipurpose swivel brush (i) with the bristled frame (m) and stiff attachment (o).
First switch on the vacuum function and vacuum your rug or carpeted floor as usual to remove the
dust. Then switch on the steam and vacuum functions in order to carry out a deep cleaning. This
type of cleaning brightens up the colour and gives your carpet back its original volume. Impurities
are removed from the very roots of the fibres.
In the case of encrusted areas or special stains, we recommend treating these first with the nozzle
(g) and the small nylon brush. To do so, set the steam level (button f) and vacuuming power
(handwheel 7) as needed.
Windows
Work simultaneously with the steam and vacuum functions with tool (b) + window wiper (c) for
window surfaces/mirrors/wall tiles.
Switch on the steam and vacuum functions. In order to be able to achieve the best possible cleaning
results, always work from top to bottom.
With very dirty windows, you should clean these first only with the steam function (without the vacuum
function) and then only with the vacuum function (without the steam function).
Begin the cleaning while you have placed the special tool with the rubber lips directly against the
glass surface. Then guide the rubber lips slowly downward. When the vacuum function is switched
on, the steam and the condensed water will be vacuumed up again.
Please note:
In the winter, the glass surfaces should be pre-warmed from a distance of 5 to 10 cm. (2 to 4 in.)
