(P-Q) and position it under the steam head (L) - Fig. 10. Lay the cloth on the apposite Velcro (V).
The cloth for delicate floors (Q) is suitable for parquet, wood, laminate.
The floor cloth (P) is suitable for tiles, terracotta tiles floor, stone, marble that require a deep cleaning.
Warning!
Make sure that the tank has been adequately filled to prevent dry operation.
To protect the floor from high temperatures, it is recommended to let the appliance heat or cool on the accessory

Before using the appliance be sure that the objects and surfaces to treat are resistant or compatible with the high
steam temperature. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's instructions and perform a test on a concealed
part or a sample particularly on treated terracotta tiles and wooden surfaces.
If the appliance is left standing on the floor while it is in operation, you may notice a whitish ring. Do not be alarmed
because this can be removed with a decalcification agent or with some drops of vinegar.

on and that the internal boiler is starting to heat up. Be sure to have first removed the dust from the floor. Run the appliance
over the floor after pushing the steam dispensing button (B).
Steam delivery can be adjusted through the apposite dial (F), by rotating it from a minimum (-) to a maximum level (+).
For more delicate floors, as parquet, wood or laminate, it is advisable to adjust steam delivery at a lower level, while, for sur-
faces requiring a deeper cleaning, e.g. marble, terracotta tiles floor, tiles or stone, it is advisable to adjust at a higher level.
