How To Use The Accessories - Kärcher SC 4.100 CB Instructions Abrégées

Note: If there is no or not enough water in
the steam boiler, the water pump starts and
supplies water from the reservoir into the
steam boiler. The filling process may take
several minutes.
 Wait until the indicator lamp (heater)
lights up permanently.
The steam cleaner is ready to use.
Note: The appliance closes the valve every
60 seconds. This prevents the calcifying of
the appliance. There will be a slight audible
click. The steam delivery is not impaired by
this.
Refilling Water
In case of water shortage, the indicator
lamp "water shortage" glows red in the wa-
ter reservoir and a signal can be heard.
Note: Every time there is not enough water
in the steam boiler, the pump automatically
supplies water from the water reservoir into
the steam boiler. If the water reservoir is
empty, the water pump is not able to fill the
steam boiler and the steam tapping is
blocked.
 Fill the water reservoir up to the "MAX"
marking.
Note: The water pump tries to fill the steam
boiler in short intervals. If the filling is suc-
cessful, the steam tapping is released im-
mediately, and the red indicator lamp goes
out.
Adjusting the Steam Quantity
Use the selector switch for the steam vol-
ume to regulate the discharged steam. The
selector switch has three positions:
Maximum steam volume
Reduced steam volume
No steam - child protection
Note: In this lever position, the steam
lever cannot be used.
 Set selector switch to the required
steam volume.
 While operating the steam switch, al-
ways direct the steam gun at a separate
piece of cloth until the steam is emitted
evenly.
Note: The heating of the steam cleaner
is turned on in regular intervals during
the operation of the appliance in order
to maintain the pressure in the boiler at
a constant level. Then the indicator
lamp (heater) blinks green.
Turning Off the Appliance
 Press the ON/OFF switch to turn off the
appliance.
 Disconnect the mains plug from the

 Press the cover of the appliance con-
nector to the bottom and disconnect the
steam plug from the appliance connec-
tor.

Important application instructions
Cleaning floor surfaces
It is recommended to sweep or vacuum the
floor prior to using the steam cleaner. This
way, the floor is already cleared of dirt/
loose particles prior to the wet cleaning.
Refreshing textiles
Prior to treatment with the steam cleaner,
always check the reaction of the textiles in
an inconspicuous location: Steam at first,
then let dry and then check for colour or
shape changes.
