Frequently Asked Questions - SG 44 Kärcher

How to use the Kärcher SG 44 steam cleaner on glass surfaces?

Preheat the window if temperatures are low by spraying a little steam from about 50 cm away over the entire surface. Use the window nozzle (special accessory). Spray steam evenly at 20 cm, then cut off the supply and run the rubber lip over the surface from top to bottom. Wipe the lip and bottom edge after each pass.

What water to use in the tank?

Use only tap water. Distilled water is not recommended as it causes faster boiler wear. Never pour detergent into the tank.

How to descale the boiler of the Kärcher SG 44?

Use Kärcher bio descaling agent RM 511. Empty the boiler, dissolve two sachets in 2 liters of hot water, pour the solution into the boiler (do not retighten the safety lock), let it sit for 8 hours, then empty and rinse twice with cold water. Press the reset button until the white indicator light turns off.

What to do if the red 'Water shortage' indicator lights up?

This indicates a water shortage in the boiler. Fill the water tank with a maximum of 2 liters of tap water. If the tank is full but the problem persists, it may be necessary to descale the boiler.

Can I use the steam cleaner on painted or varnished surfaces?

Yes, but with caution. To avoid damaging the finish, first apply a little steam to a cloth and clean the surface with this damp cloth rather than directly with steam.

How to adjust the steam flow rate and the VAPOHYDRO function?

Use the adjustment knob on the device to set the steam flow. Turn the VAPOHYDRO knob clockwise for wetter steam (ideal for rinsing) and counterclockwise for drier steam (better stain removal with cloths).

What accessories are included with the Kärcher SG 44?

The device comes with: a manual nozzle, a floor nozzle with lamellas, a floor brush with bristles, a round brush, a red power brush, two extension tubes, a microfiber cloth cover, two mop cloths, a funnel, a 120 mm pencil jet nozzle, and a 180 mm pencil jet nozzle.

How to store the device after use?

Turn off the device, disconnect the steam hose and plug. Store small accessories in the designated compartment. Wrap the cable around the hook. Insert the extension tubes into the recesses on the bottom of the device. Let brushes cool down before storing to avoid bristle deformation.

Safety Devices

Safety devices serve for the protection of the user and must not be put out of operation or bypassed with respect to their function.

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.

Water shortage 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 "water shortage" lights up. The heating is prevented from being turned on again until the boiler has cooled down or been refilled with water.

Safety thermostat

• If the low-water thermostat fails and the appliance overheats, the safety thermostat turns off the steam cleaner.
• 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 defective and the steam pressure in the boiler rises above 5.7 bar, 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.

Cleaning methods

Refreshing textiles

Always test the compatibility of the fabrics on a hidden spot prior to treating them with the appliance: Steam first, then allow to dry before checking for colour changes or deformation.

Cleaning of Coated or Lacquered Surfaces

When cleaning painted or plastic-coated surfaces, as found on kitchen and living room furniture, doors, parquet, linoleum; wax, furniture polish, plastic surfaces or paint can come loose or stains can be created. When cleaning these surfaces, briefly steam a cloth and wipe the surfaces with it.

Cleaning of Glass

Preheat window panes during seasons with especially low temperatures. In order to do so, lightly steam the entire glass surface from a distance of approx. 50 cm. This will prevent tensions on the surface which might lead to glass breakage.

Start up

Attaching the Accessories

Lift up the cover of the socket in the device and tightly plug the steam connector into the device. The pins of the plug must lock into the cover of the appliance connector. Connect the required accessories (floor nozzle, hand nozzle or detail nozzle) to the steam gun. Slide the parts together until the locking button locks into the steam gun. Use the extension pipes if necessary. Slide the parts together until the respective locking button locks into place. Press down on the locking knob to separate the accessories.

Fill up with water

Note: The use of distilled water (no limestone scale build-up) is possible, however, leads to faster wear of the boiler; thus, it is not recommended.

Check safety lock for tight seating. Unscrew the container closure from the fresh water tank. Attach the funnel inlet to the fresh water tank and snap into place by a rotating motion. Fill max. 2 litres of fresh water into the fresh water tank.

WARNING

Do not use detergent. Unlock and remove the funnel inlet. Screw the container closure onto the fresh water tank.

Operation

Temperature display

The temperature indicator shows whether the operation is taking place in the correct temperature range (working temperature range).

Turning on the Appliance

Insert the mains plug into the socket. Switch on the device with the switch - pump fresh water tank and with the switch - switch on heating. The indicator lamps illuminate.

Note: The full heating performance is only available if the steam plug is connected to the appliance during the heating-up period. Once the indicator lamp "heating" has gone out, the system is ready for use.

Note: Do not place the appliance into an upright position while it is running. Otherwise, the heating will turn off automatically after a brief period and the indicator lamp "water shortage" will illuminate in red.

Switch the heating off by means of the switch while the appliance is being transported. Actuate the steam switch, steam will escape. Always direct the steam gun at a separate piece of cloth until the steam is emitted evenly. The heating of the steam cleaner is turned on during operation of the appliance (indicator lamp glows yellow) in order to maintain the pressure in the boiler at a constant level. If the device is switched on without water, initially, the indicator lamp "heating" will glow yellow until the water shortage thermostat switches the heating off. After that, the indicator lamp "water shortage" glows red.

Steam quantity regulation

When working with standard accessories, regulate the steam volume via the rotary knob on the device.

Note: If the steam quantity regulation is set to a small quantity, steam may continue to be emitted after the steam switch has been released until the pressure in the steam hose is reduced. This pressure can be relieved even faster by briefly setting the steam quantity regulation to a large volume.

VAPOHYDRO regulation with rotary knob

In wet areas, you can also wash away the dirt instead of absorbing it with the cloth. For this, set the moisture of the steam to regulate via VAPOHYDRO regulation by means of the rotary knob. The higher the humidity of the steam, i.e. the more water is contained in the steam jet, the higher the rinsing effect. If you turn the rotary knob in the counterclockwise direction to the highest quantity (+), a hot water jet is issued, and the highest rinsing effect is achieved.

• We recommend using the VAPOHYDRO in connection with the detail nozzle for cleaning the bathroom.
• Turn the rotary knob of the VAPOHYDRO regulation in the clockwise direction to the smallest quantity (-) when working with cloths (floor nozzles, manual nozzle) in order to have as little moisture in the steam jet as possible. The dirt loosening power of the steam is improved this way.

Note: If the rotary knob of the VAPOHYDRO regulation is turned in the counterclockwise direction to the highest quantity (+), the boiler is depleted faster.

Refilling Water

Note: Once the water in the fresh water tank is used up, a signal is issued and the indicator light for "water shortage fresh water tank" lights up red.

Fill the fresh water tank with a maximum of 2 litres of fresh tap water using the filling funnel.

Once the indicator lamp "heating" has gone out, the system is ready for use.

Note: If the pump does not deliver any water in spite of the fresh water tank being full, the boiler must be descaled.

Removing the Accessories

DANGER

Scalding danger! Hot water may drip out of the accessory parts while you are detaching them! Never disconnect accessory parts while steam is escaping.

Turning Off the Appliance

Switch the appliance off at the switches. Fold down the cover of the socket in the device and pull the steam connector out of the device. Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.

Note: You can leave the residual water in the appliance.

Storing the Appliance

Place the manual nozzle, detail nozzles and small parts into the accessories storage box. Coil the power cord around the cable hooks while the device is standing. Insert the extension pipes individually into the recesses on the appliance floor.

Note: Always allow the brushes to cool down so that any deformation of the bristles is avoided.

How to use the accessories

Note: Detergent residue or care emulsions that are still present on the surface to be cleaned can lead to streaks during steam cleaning. However, these will disappear with repeated cleaning procedures.

Steam gun

Application examples for use of the steam gun without accessories:

• Elimination of odours and wrinkles from hanging pieces of clothing, by steaming them from a distance of 10-20 cm.
• Removing dust from plants. Here, keep a distance of 20-40 cm.
• Moist dusting, by briefly steaming the cloth and wiping the furniture with it.

Detail 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.
• The detail nozzle with the different attachment is suited for cleaning difficult to access points, such as corners, grooves, etc. as well as blinds, central heaters, toilets, stainless steel, mirrors, fixtures, coated and enameled surfaces, loosening of stains.
• The power nozzle increases the emission speed of the steam. Therefore, it is well-suited for cleaning very tough dirt, blowing out corners, grooves, etc.

Note: The round brush is not suitable for cleaning sensitive surfaces.

Floor nozzle

Floor nozzle with bristles

• For abrasive cleaning of stubborn soiling.
• Suited for all washable wall and floor coverings, e.g. stone floors, tiles and PVC floors. Work slowly on very dirty surfaces to allow the steam to act on the dirt for a longer period of time.

Floor nozzle with lamellae

• For hygienic cleaning of smooth surfaces, because of higher surface temperature.
• For a hygienical cleaning result steam directly on the hard surface with a working speed of max. 30 cm per second. Additionally set VAPOHYDRO to minimum position and steam pressure to maximum position.

Using the floor cleaning cloth

Flip and replace floor cloth regularly to improve the dirt pickup.

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.

Hand nozzle

Suited for small washable areas, shower stalls, mirrors or furniture cloth material.

Pull the terry cloth cover over the manual nozzle.

Window nozzle (option)

Order no. 4.130-115.0

Apply steam to the glass surface from a distance of approximately 20 cm until the surface is moistened evenly. Switch off the steam supply. Strip the glass surface in straight lines from the top to the bottom using the rubber lip. Wipe the rubber lip and the bottom edge of the window dry after each strip.

Wallpaper remover (optional)

Order no. 2.863-076.0

You can use the wallpaper remover with the steam cleaner to remove wallpapers.

Apply wallpaper remover to the edge of a wallpaper length and let the steam settle in until the wallpaper is fully moistened (approx. 10 seconds). Reset wallpaper remover without switching off. Lift the soaked piece of wallpaper using a flat trowel, and pull it off the wall.

In case of woodchip wallpaper that has been painted several times, the steam may not be able to soak the wallpaper. If this happens, you need to prepare accordingly with a nail roller.

Transport

CAUTION

Risk of injury and damage! Observe the weight of the appliance when you transport it.

For transport over short distances: Switch off the heating, bring the device into an upright position, grab the device on the carrying handle and extension tube to carry it. When transporting in vehicles, secure the appliance according to the guidelines from slipping and tipping over.

Rinsing the boiler

Illustration C

Rinse the boiler of the steam cleaner boiler at the latest after 5 boiler fillings.

Fill the boiler with water and shake it strongly. This dissolves lime scaling residing on the boiler bottom. Empty water out.

Descaling the boiler

As limescale also builds up on the boiler walls, we recommend descaling the boiler using KÄRCHER Bio descaler RM 511. The KÄRCHER Bio descaler RM 511 is a product based on citric acid, which is completely biodegradable.

ATTENTION

Only use products approved by KÄRCHER to exclude any damages to the appliance.

Disconnect the mains plug from the socket. Completely empty the steam boiler.

Completely dissolve two bags of descaler by stirring it in 2 liters of warm water. Fill the descaling solution into the boiler and allow it to react for approximately 8 hours.

DANGER

Do not screw the steam boiler safety cap on the appliance during descaling. Do not use the appliance as long as there is descaling agent in the boiler.

Pour out the descaling solution. Rinse the boiler at least two more times with cold water to ensure that there is no residue left behind in the boiler. Turn on the appliance. Press the reset key until the indicator lamp "Descaling" goes off.

The appliance is ready for use again. After approx. 50 operating hours, the indicator lamp "Descaling" shows the next necessary descaling process.

Note: Never fill descaler into the fresh water tank as this damages the pump.

Filter replacement

Protective devices

Protective devices are used to protect the user and must not be removed or operated bypassing their functions.

The pressure regulator keeps the pressure in the steam boiler at a constant level during operation. When the maximum working pressure in the steam boiler is reached, the heating is switched off and switched on again when the pressure in the boiler drops as a result of steam extraction.

Thermostat for water shortage

When the water in the boiler runs out, the heating temperature increases. The water shortage thermostat switches off the heating, and the red control lamp "Water shortage" lights up. Repeated switching on of the heating is not permitted until the boiler has cooled down or has been refilled.

Safety thermostat

• If the water shortage thermostat is defective and the device overheats, the safety thermostat switches off the machine. - To reset the safety thermostat, please contact the authorized KARCHER customer service.

Safety fuse

The safety fuse seals the boiler so that the steam pressure cannot increase. In case of malfunction of the pressure regulator and occurrence of excessive pressure in the boiler, the safety valve in the fuse opens and the steam escapes through the fuse to the outside. - Before putting the device back into operation, contact the authorized KARCHER customer service.

Applications

Refreshing textiles

Before treating with the device, always check the suitability of the textiles for steam treatment. First, steam a small area, then let it dry and finally check for colorfastness and deformation.

Cleaning surfaces with coatings or varnished surfaces

When cleaning varnished surfaces or surfaces with plastic coating, e.g. kitchen furniture, living room furniture, doors, parquet, linoleum, wax, furniture polish, synthetic coating or paint, these may dissolve or stains may appear. For testing, steam a cloth lightly and then wipe the listed surfaces with it.

Cleaning glass

Window panes should be preheated during periods of particularly low temperatures. To do this, steam the entire glass surface lightly from a distance of approx. 50 cm. This way, surface tension that could lead to glass breakage can be avoided.

Open the socket cover of the device and securely insert the plug into the device. The plug pins must lock onto the socket cover of the device. Connect the accessory (nozzle, spray lance, or spray nozzle) to the steam pistol. Push them together until the locking button on the steam pistol engages.

→ For use with extension hoses. Push the parts together until the corresponding locking button engages. → To disconnect accessories, press the locking button.

Filling with water

Application: You can use distilled water (no limescale deposits), however, this leads to rapid wear of the boiler, so it is not recommended.

→ Check the water level of the safety plug. Open the lock of the fresh water reservoir. Insert the filling funnel into the fresh water reservoir and turn it until it stops. Fill a maximum of 2 liters of tap water into the fresh water reservoir.

△WARNING

Do not use cleaning agents.

Unscrew and remove the filling funnel. Close the lock of the fresh water reservoir.

Operation

Temperature indicator

The temperature indicator shows whether the device is operating in the correct temperature range (operating temperature range).

Switching on the device

Insert the mains plug into the socket. Switch on the device with the switch - the fresh water reservoir pump and the heater switch. The control lamp should light up.

Note: The heating power can only be reached if the power plug is connected to the appliance during heating. When the "Heating" control lamp goes out, the system will be ready for operation.

Note: Do not place the appliance upright when it is switched on. Otherwise, after some time the heating will be switched off and the "Water shortage" control lamp will light up.

Before transporting the appliance, switch off the heating using the switch. Pull the steam switch outwards. First direct the steam onto a cloth until the steam comes out evenly. The heating is switched on periodically (the control lamp lights up) to maintain the steam pressure in the boiler at the correct level. If the appliance is switched on without water, the "Heating" control lamp lights up first until the thermostat switches off the heating due to water shortage. Then the "Water shortage" control lamp (red) lights up.

Regulating the amount of steam

The amount of steam during operation with standard accessories can be regulated using the rotary knob on the appliance.

Note: If the steam amount regulator is set to a small amount, after releasing the steam switch, some steam may still come out for a while until the pressure in the steam chamber drops. This pressure can be released more quickly by briefly setting the regulator to a large amount of steam.

Note: If, despite a full reservoir of distilled water, the pump does not draw water, the boiler must be descaled.

Accessories

DANGER

Danger of scalding! When removing the attachments, hot water may spray out! Do not disconnect the accessories while steam is coming out.

Switching off the appliance

Switch off the appliance using the switch. Fold down the cover of the appliance socket and pull the power plug out of the appliance. Pull the mains plug out of the socket.

Using the accessories

Note: Residues of cleaning agents for the ironing surface that remain on the soleplate can form streaks when ironing with steam, which are removed with repeated ironing.

Steam iron

Examples of using the steam iron without accessories:

• Removing odors from clothing on hangers when treating with steam at a distance of 10-20 cm.
• Removing dust from plants. Maintain a distance of 20-40 cm.
• Damp wiping of dust. Quickly treat the fabric with steam and wipe the furniture with it.

Concentrated jet nozzle

• The closer the nozzle is to the contaminated area, the higher the cleaning effect, since the highest temperature and pressure are provided directly at the nozzle outlet. -The concentrated jet nozzle with various attachments is intended for cleaning hard-to-reach places, for example, corners, joints, etc., as well as blinds, central heating radiators, toilets, stainless steel, windows, mirrors, fittings, enameled surfaces and coated surfaces, and for removing paint.
• The high-performance nozzle increases the flow rate of steam. Therefore, it is especially good for removing hardened dirt, cleaning corners, joints, etc.

Note: The round brush is not suitable for cleaning sensitive surfaces.

Floor nozzles

Floor nozzle with cloth

-For abrasive cleaning of stubborn dirt. -Suitable for all common floor coverings, for example, stone floors, tiles. Work slowly on heavily soiled surfaces so that the steam can act longer.

Floor nozzle with lamellas

-For gentle cleaning of smooth surfaces due to high surface temperature. -For gentle cleaning at a working speed of max. 30 cm/s. Steam directly onto the hard surface. Set the steam regulator to the minimum level and the steam pressure to the maximum level.

Use cloth for washing the floor

To improve dirt absorption, you should regularly turn and replace the floor cleaning cloth.

Place the fabric for washing on the floor nozzle. 1 Place the fabric for washing on the floor and put the nozzle on it. 2 Open the clamps. 3 Insert the ends of the fabric into the openings. 4 Close the clamps.

CAUTION

Make sure that the loops do not get caught between the clamps.

Nozzle for washing

For cleaning small surfaces, shower cabins, mirrors, and furniture fabrics.

Put the floor nozzle on the handle with a terry cloth.

Accessories (special accessories)

Order number 4.130-115.0

Evenly treat the glass surface with steam from a distance of approx. 20 cm. → Switch off the steam. Wipe the glass surface with a rubber squeegee from top to bottom. → Wipe the rubber squeegee and the lower edge of the window dry after each pass.

Accessory for removing wallpaper (special accessory)

Order number 2.863-076.0

With the help of the accessory for removing wallpaper, the steam device can be used for removing wallpaper.

→ Apply the accessory for removing wallpaper to the entire area up to the edge of the wallpaper strip and treat with steam so that the wallpaper softens (approx. 10 seconds). → Move the accessory for removing wallpaper without switching it off. With the help of the nozzle, lift the loosened part of the wallpaper and remove it from the wall.

If the wallpaper has a structure made of coarse fibers and has been painted several times, it is possible that the steam cannot penetrate into the wallpaper. In this case, it is recommended to pre-treat the wallpaper with a perforating roller.

Transport

CAUTION

Risk of injury and damage! When transporting, pay attention to the weight of the device.

→For transporting over short distances: switch off the appliance, place it vertically, grasp the appliance by the handle and the steam hose. →When transporting the appliance in vehicles, observe the applicable local regulations regarding securing against slipping and tipping.

Storage

CAUTION

Risk of injury and damage! When storing, pay attention to the weight of the device.

The device may only be stored in indoor areas.

Maintenance

DANGER

Descaling the boiler

Figure

Descale the boiler of the steam cleaning device no later than every 5th time the boiler is filled.

→ Fill the boiler with water and shake vigorously. As a result, deposits that have settled on the bottom of the boiler will come off. Pour out the water.

Removing scale from the boiler

To remove heavy soiling on the boiler walls, we recommend using the biological cleaning agent KARCHER for removing scale, RM 511. In the case of the biological agent KARCHER for removing scale, RM 511, it is a product based on citric acid, which is completely biodegradable.

ATTENTION

To avoid damage to the device, use only products approved by KARCHER.

→ Pull the mains plug out of the socket. → Completely remove water from the steam boiler. → Completely dissolve two packets of descaling agent in 2 liters of hot water and stir. Pour the solution into the boiler to remove scale and let it act for approx. 8 hours.

DANGER

During the descaling process, do not switch on the device and secure the safety cap. Do not use the device until the descaling agent is no longer in the boiler.

Pour out the descaling solution. Rinse the boiler at least twice with cold water to ensure that no residues remain in the device. Switch on the device. → Press the reset button until the control lamp "Descaling" goes out.

The device is now ready for operation again. After approx. 50 hours of operation, the control lamp "Descaling" will signal the need for the next descaling.

Note: Do not pour the descaling solution into the fresh water tank, as this will damage the pump.

Replacing the filter

Figure D

When using dirty water, the filter may become clogged. This becomes noticeable by an extremely long delay in the pump's operation or by its complete failure.

→ Replace the filter.

Help in case of malfunctions

Safety devices

Safety devices are intended for user protection and must not be removed or used for other purposes.

Pressure regulator

The pressure regulator maintains the pressure in the boiler during operation at the possible maximum. The heating switches off when the maximum working pressure is reached and switches on again when the pressure drops due to steam extraction.

Water shortage thermostat

When the water level in the boiler drops, the heating temperature rises. The water shortage thermostat switches off the heating and lights the control lamp "No water" with red light. The heating will not switch on again until the boiler has cooled down or been refilled.

Safety thermostat

- If the water shortage thermostat is defective and the device has been checked, the device is switched off by the safety thermostat. - To reset the safety thermostat to the operating position, contact the competent service department of KARCHER.

Safety valve

• The safety valve protects the boiler against excessive steam pressure. If the pressure regulator is defective and the steam pressure in the boiler rises, the safety valve opens and steam escapes through the valve. - For reuse in operation, contact the competent service department of KARCHER.

Filling methods

Cleaning of textile products

Before carrying out treatment with the steam device, check the resistance of textile products to steam. First, treat a small area of the product, then inspect it and, finally, check the resistance of the coloring and resistance to deformation.

Cleaning surfaces with coatings and varnished surfaces

When cleaning varnished surfaces or surfaces with plastic coating, e.g., kitchen furniture and furniture for apartments, doors, parquet, varnish, furniture polish, varnish coating or paint may become dull or stains may appear on them. To carry out cleaning, slightly dampen a cloth and then wipe the above-mentioned surfaces.

Cleaning

Perform cleaning at any time of year with particularly low temperature, preferably in winter. To do this, wipe the entire surface of the glass with a cloth from a distance of approx. 50 cm. In this way, it will be possible to remove dirt from the surface, which may lead to glass breakage.

Commissioning

Install the device

→ Open the lid of the steam socket of the device and insert the steam hose into the device. In this case, the hose protrusion must fit into the opening of the steam socket lid of the device. Connect the parts of the nozzle (spray nozzle, brush nozzle, or jet nozzle) to the steam pistol. Insert the nozzle parts into the locking button of the steam pistol. → If necessary, use an extension hose. Insert the parts one into another until the locking button clicks. → Press the locking button to release the nozzle parts.

Filling with water

Note: You can use distilled water (without formation of scale), but this will lead to rapid wear of the device, so it is not recommended.

→ Check the tightness of the filler cap. Unscrew the reservoir cap. Install the filler valve into the reservoir with clean water and lock it with a rotary motion. Fill the reservoir with clean water.

WARNING

Do not use any additives.

Unscrew and remove the filler valve. Screw the reservoir cap back on.

Temperature indicator

The temperature indicator shows operation in the correct temperature range (range of operating temperatures).

Switching on the device

→ Insert the plug into the socket. → Switch on the device using the switch on the water tank and the heating switch. The control lamps light up.

Note: Full heating power is available only when the plug is connected to the device.

When the control lamp "Heating" lights up, the system is ready for operation.

Note: Do not place the device in a vertical position when it is switched on. Otherwise, the heating will automatically switch off after a few minutes and the control lamp "No water" will light up.

Fill the water tank with clean water using the filling opening.

When the control lamp "Heating" lights up, the system is ready for operation.

Note: If the water tank is not filled with clean water, no water will be supplied. The plug must be removed from the tank.

Connecting the nozzles

△SAFETY

Safety hazard! When connecting the device to the mains, hot water may spray out! During steam output, do not touch any parts of the device.

Switching on the device

→ Turn on the device using the switch. Pull the plug of the mains socket out of the device and pull the power cord out of the device. Pull the plug of the power cord out of the mains socket.

Note: Water may remain in the device.

Storage

Place the nozzle, spray gun, and fine details into the accessory compartment. Wrap the power cord around the cord wrap on the back of the device in a vertical position. → Insert the suction tube separately into the holder on the bottom of the device.

Note: Cool down the device completely to prevent any deformation.

Application

Note: Cleaning agents for cleaning or descaling are applied to the surfaces to be cleaned; they may form smudges that are visible after repeated use.

Steam nozzle

Examples of using the steam nozzle without accessories:

• Removing odors and stains on hanging items: treat with steam from a distance of 10-20 cm.
• Cleaning from dust: maintain a distance of 20-40 cm. - Damp wipeable fabric. Only wipe the fabric with a damp cloth and wipe the furniture.

Spot jet nozzle

• The cleaning effect is enhanced depending on how close you hold the nozzle to the dirty area, because the temperature and pressure of the steam are higher than when it exits the nozzle. - The spot jet nozzle with different attachments is intended for cleaning hard-to-reach areas, such as corners, joints, etc. Radiators, central heating radiators, nozzles, stainless steel, windows, mirrors, fittings, surfaces with coatings, and painted surfaces, removing stains.

-The highly productive nozzle for steam cleaning accelerates evaporation. Due to this, it is well suited for cleaning stubborn dirt, blowing out corners, joints, etc.

Note: The round brush is not suitable for delicate surfaces.

For skin ironing (special attachment)

Perform ironing (special attachment)

Order number 4.130-115.0

Evenly release steam onto the ironing surface from a distance of about 20 cm. Turn off the steam supply. Then wipe the ironing surface from top to bottom with the rubber squeegee attachment. After each use, wipe the ironing plate and its lower part.
