Frequently Asked Questions - SWC1200 SCHEPPACH

How to start the Scheppach SWC1200 vacuum cleaner?

Plug the power cord into a protected outlet, then press the On/Off (3) switch. The buttons on the carry handle flash to indicate power-on.

What are the different operating modes available?

The SWC1200 offers four modes: cold water suction, hot water suction (≥60°C), steam suction (≥100°C), and steam only mode (without suction). Select the mode using the buttons on the carry handle (2).

How to fill the clean water tank?

Remove the clean water tank (1) by its handle (1b), open the lid (1a) by pulling the clip tab (1c), and fill up to the mark (max. 1.5 litres). Close by snapping the clip shut.

What to do if suction power decreases?

First check if the waste water tank (4) is full. If so, empty it as described in chapter 10.3 of the manual. A full tank reduces suction.

How to clean the waste water filter?

Empty the waste water tank, then remove the filter (4d) located under the tank. Wash it under running water (max. 60°C) and put it back after drying.

The appliance does not produce steam, what to check?

Ensure that the clean water tank contains enough water and that the product has had time to heat up (wait until the steam mode button changes from red to white). If the problem persists, contact customer service.

Can I use cleaning additives in the water?

No, the use of cleaning additives is prohibited as they can produce harmful vapors. Use only clear water.

How to clean the washing brush?

Open the locking clip (9c) of the cover (9b) and remove it. Wash the brush and cover under running water, let dry completely, then reassemble by snapping the clip shut.

Where can I find spare parts?

Original spare parts are available from the Scheppach after-sales service center. Scan the QR code on the homepage or contact customer service. Wear parts include the waste water filter, washing brush, and wiper.

How to store the appliance after use?

Turn off the appliance, unplug the cord, allow to cool. Wind the cable on its holder, store the suction hose on its support, and store the appliance in a dry, frost-free place (5-30°C), out of reach of children.

- Owners or users of electrical and electronic devices are legally obliged to return them after use.
- The end user is responsible for deleting their personal data from the old device being disposed of!
- The symbol of the crossed-out dustbin means that waste electrical and electronic equipment must not be disposed of with household waste.
- Waste electrical and electronic equipment can be handed in free of charge at the following places:

– Public disposal or collection points (e.g. municipal works yards)

Notes on lithium-ion batteries

Remove the battery before disposing of the device!

• Do not dispose of batteries in household waste, in a fire (risk of explosion) or in water. Damaged batteries can harm the environment and your health if toxic vapours or liquids escape.
• Defective or used batteries must be recycled in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/1542.
• Hand in the battery and the battery charger at a recycling centre. The plastic and metal parts used can be separated by type and thus recycled.
• Dispose of batteries when discharged. We recommend covering the poles with an adhesive strip to protect against a short circuit. Do not open the battery.

- Dispose of batteries in accordance with local regulations. Return batteries to a used battery collection point where they can be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner. Ask your local waste disposal company about this.
