Frequently Asked Questions - 01378 Cleanmaxx

How to assemble the Cleanmaxx 01378 steam cleaner?

Insert the handle grip into the handle until the locking tab engages. Then push the handle into the receptacle on the main unit until it clicks. For the cleaning foot, insert it into the nozzle receptacle until it locks.

What type of water to use in the tank?

Use only cold, clean tap water. Do not use distilled water, cleaning products, or additives, as this may damage the appliance.

How to adjust the steam power?

Turn the steam adjustment knob (4) to choose between two levels: low steam or high steam. The indicator light is red during heating and turns blue when the operating temperature is reached.

Can I use the steam cleaner on wooden floors?

No, the appliance is not designed for cleaning unsealed wooden floors. Steam can damage the wood. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area before use.

How to clean the accessories after use?

The nozzles (brushes, spatula, etc.) can be washed in warm water with a mild detergent and then air-dried. The mop cloth and microfiber cloth should be washed according to the label instructions, without detergent or bleach. Do not put them in the dishwasher or dryer.

What to do if the appliance does not emit steam?

Check that the appliance is turned on (on/off switch). Make sure the water tank is filled and properly engaged. Increase the steam power if necessary. Allow the appliance to preheat for a few seconds. If the nozzle is clogged, clean it.

The appliance makes a loud pumping noise, what to do?

This noise indicates that the water tank is almost empty. Turn off the appliance, unplug it, let it cool down, then refill the water tank.

How to store the appliance after use?

Turn off and unplug the appliance. Let it cool completely. Empty the water tank. Wash and dry the accessories. Store everything in a dry place, away from sunlight and out of reach of children.

What surfaces should not be cleaned with steam?

Avoid surfaces not resistant to heat and moisture: unsealed wooden floors, soft plastics, wooden furniture, leather, velvet, waxed surfaces (wax may be removed). Do not direct steam at electrical appliances.

Where to find spare parts and after-sales service?

Contact the after-sales service of DS Produkte GmbH by phone at [phone] or via their website. Use only genuine accessories.

Use

Read the safety instructions prior to use!

Cleaning the Floor

PLEASE NOTE!

■ To use the device on laminate flooring, the following must be ensured:
- The laminate must be properly laid and have no gaps or cracks into which moisture could penetrate.
- Test the device first on an inconspicuous spot. Then check it for any waves or ingress of moisture. If the test spot is unblemished, the device can be used to clean the entire laminate floor.
Before using the device, always check the floor cloth for signs of wear. A floor cloth that is worn or has holes in it must not be used. The flooring could be damaged.
If the device is parked after use, a wet spot may form beneath the cleaning foot. With sensitive floors, a cloth should therefore be placed beneath the cleaning foot or parking for a prolonged period of time should be avoided.

1. Give the floor a general sweep or vacuum before using the device.
2. Attach the stem (N) with stem handle (B) and the cleaning foot (M) with floor cloth (L) to the main unit (A). If a carpet is to be cleaned, use the carpet glider (K) (see "Assembling the Device").
3. Fill the water tank (3) with water (see "Filling the Water Tank").
4. Unwind the mains cable (10). To do this, turn down the upper hook for winding up the cable (13).
5. Stand the device upright. The joint (7) of the cleaning foot locks in place in a vertical position.

6. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed plug socket that is easily accessible.

7. To switch on the device, press the ⏻ On/Off switch (9).

8. Use the wheel for setting the steam power (4) to set the steam power you want. Depending on the setting, one of the two lights (5) switches on (little steam / a lot of steam).

9. The heat control lamp on the wheel for setting the steam power lights up red during the heating process. Once the operating temperature has been reached, the colour changes to blue. The device then starts to emit steam automatically. You can now start cleaning the floor.

10. Hold the device by the stem handle and lower the main unit slightly towards the floor to release the locked standing position. Then slide the cleaning foot slowly across the floor. The floor is cleaned as you do this.

11. If the device makes pumping / humming noises, there is not enough water in the water tank. It needs to be topped up. Switch off the device before topping it up ( ⏻ press the On/Off switch) and pull the mains plug from the plug socket.

12. After use, follow the instructions in the "After Use" section.

Use as Handheld Steam Device

WARNING - Danger of Scalding!

- Never attempt to smooth clothing on people! Hang clothing on a hanger with sufficient clearance on all sides so that heat and moisture cannot cause any damage to any living creatures or objects.

1. Detach the stem (N) and the cleaning foot (M) from the main unit (A).
2. Secure the adapter (G) with the attachment you want (C, D, E, F, I) on the main unit (see "Functions of the Attachments and "Assembling the Device"). For steam-pressing textiles, the microfibre cloth (J) is fixed to the window cleaning attachment (I).
3. Fill the water tank (3) with water (see "Filling the Water Tank").
4. Unwind the mains cable (10). To do this, turn down the upper hook for winding up the cable (13).
5. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed plug socket that is easily accessible.
6. To switch on the device, press the ⏻ On / Off switch (9).
7. Use the wheel for setting the steam power (4) to set the steam power you want. Depending on the setting, one of the two lights (5) switches on (little steam / lots of steam).
8. During heating, the heat control lamp is lit red. Once the operating temperature has been reached, the colour changes to blue. The steam cleaning can now begin.
9. Hold the main unit by the handle (11). Press the button under the handle if you want the device to emit a blast of steam. Allow the attachment to glide slowly over the surface to be cleaned.
10. If the device makes pumping / humming noises, there is not enough water in the water tank. It needs to be topped up. Switch off the device before topping it up ( ⏻ press the On / Off switch) and pull the mains plug from the plug socket.
11. After use, follow the instructions in the "After Use" section.
