Cleaning and Care
DANGER!
Risk of electric shock.
There is a risk of electric shock due to live parts.
− Always unplug the steam cleaner before cleaning.
− Never immerse the steam cleaner in water or any other
liquids.
− Remove the water tank, empty it completely and rinse it out once after each use.
− Do not use any solvents or caustic/gaseous cleaning agents to clean the appliance's
surfaces. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
Washing the cleaning cloths
Wash the cleaning cloths in the washing machine with similar colors on a hot water cycle.
Do not use bleach or fabric conditioners.
Descaling the appliance
Descale the steam cleaner as soon as you notice a decrease in the steam power.
− You can fi ll the water tank with distilled water in order to avoid limescale build-up.
CAUTION!
Risk of injury/damage.
There is a risk of scalding and a risk of damage to surrounding
objects from the steam or from limescale.
− Never leave the steam cleaner unattended during the
descaling process.
1. Fill the tank with vinegar and water at a ratio of 1:3.
2. Replace the water tank.
3. Plug in the appliance, allow it to heat up and switch on the steam cleaner.
4. Place the appliance in a position where the surrounding surfaces or fl oors are
resistant to the steam, e.g. in the bathtub or shower cubicle.
5. Leave the appliance to generate steam until the water tank is empty.
6. Repeat the descaling process as often as required to recover the normal steam
output.
