► Always check that the item to be cleaned is suitable for steam cleaning.
► Hold the item in the steam area at least 2 cm away from the nozzle. At frequent intervals, check
the cleaning progress (visual check) as well as any adverse effects on the sensitive surfaces of
the item being cleaned.
► The user is responsible for verifying the cleaning result.
Do not dip the handpiece in water!
Danger of scalding due to steam or hot water escaping
Water that has entered the handpiece from outside can become extremely hot or turn to steam.
If steam is used for extended periods, the handpiece and the steam hose can become extremely
hot!
Tank is empty - refill with water
If there is no longer any water in the pressure tank, this is detected.
♦ "Tank empty" indicator (4) lights up in red.
♦ A short warning signal sounds.
♦ The heating is switched off.
POWER steamer 1
Danger of scalding due to steam escaping when opening the tank cap and when filling! Only open
the tank cap when there is no longer any pressure.
When filling, do not bend over the filler opening of the pressure tank!
If the tank cap cannot be easily opened, there is still pressure. Do not force open the tank cap.
Release pressure by pressing the steam button.
⇒ Release the residual pressure by pressing the steam button or using the steam outlet function (see
Chap. "Releasing pressure - steam outlet").
⇒ Do not switch off the unit.
⇒ Open the tank cap carefully (1) and remove it.
⇒ Allow the unit to cool down for at least 45 minutes to prevent hot water spraying out when filling.
⇒ Using a container, fill the pressure tank slowly with water through the funnel-shaped upper housing.
Very slowly to begin with!
⇒ Wipe off / remove excess water in the funnel-shaped upper housing.
⇒ Screw in the tank cap and tighten until it is finger tight.
⇒ Confirm filling by pressing the ON / OFF button (3).
♦ The "Heating / Ready for operation" indicator (5) lights up in orange, the unit heats up.
♦ The water is heated using the integrated heating until the working pressure has been reached.
♦ Once the working pressure has been reached, the "Heating / Ready for operation" indicator (5) lights
up in green.
The unit only reheats if it has cooled down sufficiently beforehand. If this is not the case, e.g., be-
cause too little water was refilled, the "Heating / Ready for operation" indicator flashes orange and
heating is not yet activated.
Once the temperature has dropped sufficiently, the heating is automatically switched on and the
"Heating / Ready for operation" indicator lights up permanently in orange.
POWER steamer 2
If the POWER steamer 2 is connected to a water supply that is turned on, the loss of water as a result of
the steam is automatically compensated for.
Releasing pressure - steam outlet
With the steam outlet function, the heating is switched off and the pressure released via the handpiece
without the need to keep the steam button held down.
