Interrupting Operation; Frost Protection - Kärcher HDS-E 3.3/25-4M Ec Manual Del Usuario

Turning on the Appliance
 Set appliance switch to desired operating mode.
Indicator lamp for operational readiness lights up.
The device starts briefly and turns off, as soon as the
working pressure is reached.
Note: If the indicator lamps for pump, lack of water, boil-
er malfunction or motor, turn off the appliance immedi-
ately and repair malfunction, refer to "Help with malfunc-
tions".
 Release the trigger gun. To do so, push the safety
catch towards the back.
When activating the hand spray gun the device switch-
es back on.
Note: If no water comes out of the high pressure nozzle,
vent pump. Refer to "Help with malfunctions - appliance
is not building up pressure".
Adjust cleaning temperature
 Set temperature regulator to desired temperature.
86 °F/30 °C to 185 °F/85 °C:
– Clean with hot water.
Set working pressure and flow rate
Pressure/quantity regulation of the pump unit
 Turn the regulation spindle in a clockwise direction:
Increase working pressure (MAX).
 Turn the regulation spindle in an anti-clockwise di-
rection: Reduce working pressure (MIN).
Operation with detergent
– For considerate treatment of the environment use
detergent economically.
– The detergent must be suitable for the surface to
be cleaned.
 With support of the detergent dose valve set deter-
gent concentration as determined by the manufac-
turer.
Note: Recommended values at the control panel at
maximum working pressure.
 Set pressure/temperature and detergent concen-
tration according to the surface to be cleaned.
Note: To prevent damage due to too much pressure, al-
ways position high pressure ray first from a greater dis-
tance towards object to be cleaned.
Recommended cleaning method
– Loosen the dirt:
 Spray detergent economically and let it work for
1...5 minutes but do not let it dry up.
– Remove the dirt:

– Contaminations containing protein, i.e. in the food
processing industry
max. 140 °F/60 °C
– Vehicle cleaning, machine cleaning
140 °F/60 °C-185 °F/85 °C
DANGER
Scalding danger!
 Set temperature regulator to desired temperature.
Note: Changing the working pressure and the feed vol-
ume will also change the water temperature.

Interrupting operation

 Secure the trigger gun. To do so, push the safety
catch towards the front.
After operation with detergent
 Set dosing value for detergent to "0".
 Set the appliance switch to "1" (operation with cold
