Steam cleaner accessories
(Depending on equipment)
Steam turbo brush
CAUTION
Longer periods of use of the
steam turbo brush may lead to
poor blood circulation in the
hands due to vibration. In case
of symptoms, e.g. tingling in the
fingers, cold fingers, take a
break. A general period of use
cannot be set, because this de-
pends on several influencing
factors:
 Personal tendency to suffer
from poor circulation (fre-
quently cold fingers, tingling
sensation in the fingers).
 Holding the device too tightly
hindering blood circulation.
 Continuous operation is more
harmful than operation inter-
rupted by work breaks.
You should consult a doctor if
using the steam turbo brush reg-
ularly and for lengthy periods of
time, and in the event of repeat-
ed occurrences of symptoms
such as tingling in the fingers or
cold fingers.
