2 Safety instructions
Do not leave the appliance unsupervised whilst it is con-
nected to a socket. Never lay the appliance on its side during
operation. There is a risk of scalding
Do not point the steam jet at electrical devices, sockets, ca-
bles, etc. or inside ovens. There is a risk of electric shock.
The appliance produces steam under pressure for cleaning
purposes. Even after you have unplugged the appliance, hot
steam will be available for approx. 30 more minutes. So pur-
posely discharge the remaining steam from the appliance to-
wards the end of the cleaning process by pressing the steam
button immediately after pulling the plug from the socket.
Never use the device without the water tank cap screwed
on correctly. The safety valve should prevent the water tank
cap from being removed prematurely. So do not use force to
open the water tank cap.
Do not use the appliance to clean pressure containers,
containers which are filled with liquids, or containers if you do
not know what they contain. There is a danger of them burst-
ing or exploding!
Take care not to use the steam cleaner on one spot for too
long. Otherwise, the surface might be damaged.
Provide adequate ventilation during and after your cleaning
work. Otherwise, the increased humidity after cleaning could,
in the worst case, cause the formation of mould.
CAUTION – hot surface
Let the hot appliance and its accessories cool off be-
fore touching them. Carry the appliance by its han-
dle only. There is a danger of burning yourself!
