Read operating instructions
Pressure controller
The pressure controller keeps the pressure in the steam boiler as constant as possible during operation. The heating is switched off when the maximum operating pressure is reached in the steam boiler and is activated if there is a pressure drop in the steam boiler as a result of a steam removal.

Safety lock
The safety lock seals the steam boiler from the steam pressure present. If the pressure regulator is defective and overpressure occurs in the steam boiler, an pressure relief valve opens in the safety lock and steam leaks out through the lock. Prior to restarting the appliance, contact the responsible KÄRCHER Customer Service.
Safety thermostat
The safety thermostat prevents the device from overheating. If the pressure controller fails and the device overheats, then the safety thermostat switches the device off. To reset the safety thermostat, contact the responsible KÄRCHER Customer Service.

Important application instructions
Cleaning the floor areas
We recommend sweeping the floor or vacuum cleaning it before using the appliance. In this way the floor will be cleared of dirt and loose particles before the wet cleaning.
Freshening up textiles
Prior to using the appliance, always check the compatibility of the textiles at a concealed point: Steam down the textile, allow it to dry and then check it for any change in colour or shape.
Cleaning coated or painted surfaces
ATTENTION
Damaged surfaces Steam can loosen wax, furniture polish, plastic coatings or paint and edge band from edges. Do not direct the steam at glued laminated edges as the edge band may loosen. Do not use the appliance for cleaning unsealed wood or parquet floors. Do not use the appliance for cleaning painted or plastic coated surfaces such as kitchen or living room furniture, doors or parquet. 1. To clean these surfaces, steam a cloth briefly and
use it to wipe over the surfaces.
Glass cleaner
ATTENTION
Glass breakages and damaged surfaces Steam can damage sealed points of the window frame and, at low outside temperatures, lead to tension on the surface of window panes and hence to glass breakages. Do not direct the steam at sealed points on the window frame. At low outside temperatures, heat up the window panes by gently steaming the full surface of the glass. Clean the window area with a manual nozzle and
cover. To remove the water, use a squeegee or wipe the surfaces dry.
How to use the Accessories
Steam gun
The steam gun can be used for the following applications without accessories: For removing slight creases from the hanging cloth-
ing items: Steam the clothing item from a distance of 10-20 cm. For wiping damp dust: Steam a cloth briefly and use it to wipe over the furniture.
Spotlight nozzle
Round brush (small)
The small round brush is used for cleaning stubborn dirt. Stubborn dirt can be removed more easily by brushing.

ATTENTION
Damaged surfaces The brush may scratch sensitive surfaces. It is not suitable for cleaning sensitive surfaces. 1. Fit the round brush to the spotlight nozzle.
Illustration I
Round brush (large)
The large round brush is suitable for cleaning large rounded surfaces, e.g. wash basin, shower tray, bath tub, kitchen sink.
ATTENTION
Damaged surfaces The brush may scratch sensitive surfaces. It is not suitable for cleaning sensitive surfaces. 1. Fit the large round brush to the spotlight nozzle.
Illustration I
Power nozzle
The power nozzle is used for cleaning stubborn dirt, blowing down corners, joins etc. 1. Install the power nozzle onto the spotlight nozzle ac-
cording to the round brush. Illustration I
Manual nozzle
The manual nozzle is used for cleaning small areas that can be washed down, shower cubicles and mirrors. 1. Push the manual nozzle onto the steam gun accord-
ing to the spotlight nozzle. Illustration H 2. Pull the cover over the manual nozzle.
Floor nozzle
The floor nozzle is used for cleaning washable wall and floor coverings e.g. stone floors, tiles and PVC floors.
ATTENTION
Damage due to build-up of steam Heat and moisture can lead to damage. Check the heat resistance and steam effect on an inconspicuous area using a minimal volume of steam prior to use. Note Detergent residue or care emulsions on the surface to be cleaned can lead to streaks during steam cleaning, which will disappear however once these have been used several times. We recommend sweeping the floor or vacuum cleaning it before using the device. In this way the floor will be cleared of dirt and loose particles before the wet cleaning commences. Work slowly on surfaces that are heavily soiled so that the steam has longer to take effect. 1. Connect the extension tubes with the steam gun.
Illustration J 2. Push the floor nozzle onto the extension tube.
Illustration K 3. Fasten the floor cleaning cloth to the floor nozzle.
a Place the floor cleaning cloth with the hook and loop fastener strips pointing upwards on the floor.
b Place the floor nozzle onto the floor cleaning cloth, applying slight pressure. Illustration L
The floor cleaning cloth will stick to the floor nozzle of its own accord due to the hook and loop fastener.

English

Removing the floor cleaning cloth
1. Place one foot on the bottom corner of the floor cleaning cloth and lift the floor nozzle up. Illustration L
Note Initially, the floor cleaning cloth's hook and loop fastener strip is very strong and cannot be removed from the floor nozzle easily. After the floor cleaning cloth has been used several times and washed, it is easier to remove from the floor nozzle and it has reached the optimum adhesion.
Parking the floor nozzle
1. Hang the floor nozzle in the park bracket during breaks in work. Illustration O
