Turning on the Appliance
 Place the unit securely on a firm sur-
face.
 Insert the mains plug into a socket.
 Rotate the selector switch to steam level
selection range from the OFF position.
Display - heater blinks green.
Note: If there is no or not enough water in
the steam boiler, the water pump starts and
supplies water from the reservoir into the
steam boiler. The filling process may take
several minutes.
 Wait until the heater display lights up
permanently.
The steam cleaner is ready to use.
Note: The appliance briefly closes the
valve every 60 seconds. This will prevent
the valve from sticking. There will be a
slight audible click. The steam delivery is
not impaired by this.
Refilling Water
In case of water shortage, the water short-
age display lights up red and a signal can
be heard.
Note: Every time there is not enough water
in the steam boiler, the pump automatically
supplies water from the water reservoir into
the steam boiler. If the water reservoir is
empty, the water pump is not able to fill the
steam boiler and the steam tapping is
blocked.
 Fill the water reservoir up to the "MAX"
marking.
Note: The water pump tries to fill the steam
boiler in short intervals. If the filling is suc-
cessful, the steam tapping is released im-
mediately, and the red display goes out.

Adjusting the Steam Quantity
The emerging steam is regulated by a se-
lector switch. Depending on the type of
contamination and its severity, this selector
switch offers adjustment possiblities from
the minimum steam level (slight contamina-
tion) to the max. steam level (severe con-
tamination).
For severe contamination located in difficult
to access areas, there is the vapohydro
function.
