ATTENTION
Check the object to be cleaned prior to using the appli-
ance in an inconspicuous place for colour fastness and
water resistance.
Do not clean water-sensitive floor coverings such as
wood floors (the moisture could penetrate and damage
the floor).
Note
Warm water (max. 50°C) will increase the cleaning ef-
fect.
Only use detergent pump while operating. Avoid dry
runs as well as unnecessary pressure buildup (dynamic
pressure) as much as possible.
If there is a risk of overheating, the thermal protection
switch shuts off the detergent pump. After cooling down
(20 - 30 min), the pump is ready for use again.
