Safety Devices
Safety devices serve for the protection of
the user and must not be put out of opera-
tion or bypassed with respect to their func-
tion.
Pressure controller
The pressure controller keeps the boiler
pressure during the operation as constant
as possible. The heating is turned off if the
maximum operating pressure of 4 bar is
reached in the boiler and is reactivated in
case of a pressure drop in the boiler due to
steam tapping.
Water shortage thermostat
When the water in the boiler becomes ex-
hausted, the temperature of the heating in-
creases. The low-water thermostat turns off
the heating, and the red low-water indicator
lamp "water shortage" lights up. The heat-
ing is prevented from being turned on again
until the boiler has cooled down or been re-
filled with water.
Safety thermostat
If the low-water thermostat fails and the
–
appliance overheats, the safety thermo-
stat turns off the steam cleaner.
Please contact your local Tornado cus-
–
tomer service to arrange for the reset of
the safety thermostat.
Safety lock
The safety lock seals the boiler against
–
the steam pressure that builds up in the
boiler. If the pressure controller is de-
fective and the steam pressure in the
boiler rises above 5.7 bar, a pressure
control valve in the safety lock opens,
and steam is emitted through the lock to
the outside.
Please contact your local Tornado cus-
–
tomer service before you put the appli-
ance into operation again.
Notes on the operation
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.
Cleaning of Coated or Lacquered
When cleaning painted or plastic-coated
surfaces, as found on kitchen and living
room furniture, doors, parquet; wax, furni-
ture polish, plastic surfaces or paint can
come loose or stains can be created. When
cleaning these surfaces, briefly steam a
cloth and wipe the surfaces with it.
Cleaning of Glass
In case of low outside temperatures, espe-
cially in the winter, warm up the window
pane by slightly steaming the entire glass
surface. This will prevent tensions on the
surface which might lead to glass break-
age.
