Floor Nozzle - Kärcher SC 4 EasyFix Iron Mode D'emploi

Manual nozzle
The manual nozzle is used for cleaning small areas that
can be washed down, shower cubicles and mirrors.
1. Push the manual nozzle onto the steam gun accord-
ing to the spotlight nozzle.

2. Pull the cover over the manual nozzle.

Floor nozzle

The floor nozzle is used for cleaning washable wall and
floor coverings e.g. stone floors, tiles and PVC floors.
ATTENTION
Damage due to build-up of steam
Heat and moisture can lead to damage.
Check the heat resistance and steam effect on an in-
conspicuous area using a minimal volume of steam pri-
or to use.
Note
Detergent residue or care emulsions on the surface to
be cleaned can lead to streaks, which will disappear
however once these have been used several times.
We recommend sweeping the floor or vacuum cleaning
it before using the appliance. In this way the floor will be
cleared of dirt and loose particles before the wet clean-
ing commences. Work slowly on surfaces that are heav-
ily soiled so that the steam can impact longer.
1. Connect the extension tubes with the steam gun.

2. Push the floor nozzle onto the extension tube.

3. Fasten the floor cleaning cloth to the floor nozzle.
a Place the floor cleaning cloth with the hook and
loop fastener strips pointing upwards on the floor.
b Place the floor nozzle onto the floor cleaning
cloth, applying slight pressure.
Illustration N
The floor cleaning cloth will stick to the floor nozzle
of its own accord due to the hook and loop fastener.
Removing the floor cleaning cloth
1. Place one foot on the bottom corner of the floor
cleaning cloth and lift the floor nozzle up.
Illustration N
Note
Initially, the floor cleaning cloth's hook and loop fas-
tener strip is very strong and cannot be removed
from the floor nozzle easily. After the floor cleaning
cloth has been used several times and washed, it is
easier to remove from the floor nozzle and it has
reached the optimum adhesion.
Parking the floor nozzle
1. Hang the floor nozzle in the park bracket during
breaks in work.

Carpet glider
The carpet glider is used for freshening up carpets.
ATTENTION
Beware of damaging the carpet glider and carpet
Contamination on the carpet glider, as well as heat and
moisture penetration, can result in the carpet being
damaged.
Prior to the application, also check the heat resistance
and impact of steam on the carpet at an insignificant
spot using as small an amount of steam as possible.
Observe the cleaning instructions from the carpet man-
ufacturer.
Prior to using the carpet glider, make sure that the car-
pet has been vacuumed and that stains have been re-
moved.
Prior to application and following operating pauses, re-
move any possible water accumulation (condensate) in
the appliance by means of evaporating the condensate
into a drain (without floor cleaning cloth / with accesso-
ries).
Only use the carpet glider with a floor cleaning cloth on
the floor nozzle.
Steam clean with a weak steam stage when using the
carpet glider.
In order to prevent too much moistening and to avoid
the risk of damage due to temperature effects, do not di-
rect the steam continuously onto one spot (maximum
5 seconds).
Do not use the carpet glider on deep-pile carpets.
Fastening the carpet glider to the floor nozzle
1. For fastening the floor cleaning cloth to the floor
nozzle, please refer to chapter Floor nozzle.

2. Using a little force, allow the floor nozzle to slide into
the carpet glider and engage there.

Note
We recommend using the KÄRCHER ironing board with
active steam suctioning. This ironing board is optimally
matched to the device you have acquired. It facilitates
and speeds up the ironing process. In any case, the
ironing board used should have a steam-permeable,
grid-like ironing base surface.
1. Ensure that tap water or a mixture of tap water and
no more than 50% distilled water is in the steam boil-
er of the steam cleaner.
2. Insert the steam plug of the iron into the unit plug un-
til it clicks into place.
The iron display stays lit in green.
3. Putting the steam cleaner into operation; see Chap-
ter Switching on the device.
4. Wait until the steam cleaner is ready for use.
All fabrics can be ironed with steam. Iron sensitive fab-
rics or overprints on the reverse or, as the case may be,
according to manufacturer's instructions.
