How to turn on the appliance?

Plug in the power cord, turn the program selector to the desired program (normal mode, intensive or vacuum) and activate the safety switch on the handle.

Why is the water quantity insufficient?

Check the fresh water level in the tank and refill if necessary. Increase the water flow using the water quantity adjustment button. Also clean the protection sieve.

What to do if suction power decreases?

Check if the dirty water tank is full (empty it). Clean the lint filter, suction lips and hoses. Ensure the drain hose cap is closed and the seals are tight.

How to replace the brush disks?

Lower the handle to raise the cleaning head. Press the brush change pedal to unlock the old brush. Place the new brush on the floor, lower the cleaning head and engage it in the drive.

When and how to turn or replace the suction lips?

Replace or turn the suction lips when they are worn down to the wear mark. Remove the suction bar, unscrew the knurled knobs, remove the plastic parts, then change the lips.

Note:

Carry out initial cleaning attempts with low water volume. Increase water volume step-by-step until the desired cleaning result is achieved.

Setting the Vacuum Bar

Oblique position

To improve the vacuuming result on tiled floors the vacuum bar can be turned to an oblique position of up to 5°.

Loosen the wing nuts. Turn the vacuum bar.

Tighten the wing screws.

Inclination

If the vacuum result is unsatisfactory the inclination of the straight vacuum bar can be modified.

→ Adjust the rotary handle to incline the suction bar.

Height

The bend of the suction lips upon contact with the floor is influenced by the height adjustment.

→ Try adjusting the twist handles of the height adjustment until the best vacuuming result is achieved.

Cleaning

ATTENTION

Risk of damage to the floor covering. Do not operate the appliance on the spot.

→ Insert the end of the extension cable as a loop in the strain relief clamp. → Connect the mains plug of the device to the extension cable. → Insert the mains plug of the extension cable into a socket. → Turn the program selection switch to the desired cleaning program. → Operate the safety switch.

Lower the vacuum bar

→ Pull the lever out and press it down; the vacuum bar is lowered.

Note:

• For cleaning tiled floors, adjust the straight suction bar in such a way that cleaning is not done at an angle of 90 degrees to the joints.
• The inclined position and the inclination of the suction bar can be adjusted to achieve better suction results (see "Adjusting the suction bar").
• If the waste water tank is full, the float closes the suction opening and the suction turbine runs at an increased speed. If this is the case, shut the vacuum off and drive to empty the waste water tank.
