12. GENERAL MAINTENANCE

To clean the outside of the appliance, only use
a damp cloth and tap water. All accessories
can be cleaned using running water, ensuring
they are completely dry before the next use.
After using the brushes, we recommend let-
ting the bristles cool down in their natural po-
sition, in order to avoid any deformation.
Do not use detergents of any type.
Regularly check the status of the coloured
washer located in the connector assembly. If
necessary, replace with the appropriate spare
part, as described below.
- Remove the damaged washer.
- Insert the new washer, attaching it on the
steam nozzle and pushing it into place.
- Lubricate the gasket with silicone grease
or Vaseline, or alternatively with small
quantities of vegetable oils.
Carry out the same inspection on the connec-
tion seals of the handle of the flexible hose,
the extension hoses and the accessory adap-
ter.
Every 2 months, rinse the boiler with tap wa-
ter.
13. KALSTOP optional
Kalstop is thelimescale product for applian-
ces with boiler for ironing and steam cleaning.
Regular use of Kalstop, every time the tank is
filled with water:
- Extends the life of the appliance.
- Allows emission of a "drier" steam
- Prevents limescale build up.
- Protects the walls of the boiler.
- Contributes to saving energy.
14. TRANSPORT
One of the great advantages of this device is
that it can be carried anywhere, thanks to the
handle or the shoulder strap.
To carry with the strap, attached the carrying
strap to the two holes (13)-(14).
ATTENTION: especially when the appliance
has just been filled, during cleaning and con-
sequently when moving the appliance, a
small amount of water may leak out mixed
with the steam from the accessories.
15. STORAGE
