Initial Start-Up

ATTENTION

Device damage due to calcification

Always work with a decalcification cartridge.

1. Insert the decalcification cartridge into the water res-

ervoir and press it firmly into place.

Installation information

When steaming for the first time after removing and re-
inserting the decalcification cartridge, the steam jet may 
be weak or irregular, and individual drops of water may 
be expelled. The device requires a short running-in pe-
riod in which the decalcification cartridge fills with water. 
The steam volume that is expelled increases constantly 
until the maximum steam volume has been reached af-
ter approx. 50 seconds.

Note

Please note that here it is set to steam stage 2 (tiles/
stone), since the running-in period will  otherwise be ex-
tended. 

Operation

Unwinding the power cable

몇

WARNING

Risk of electric shock

If the power cable is not completely unwound, the dan-
ger exists of you straining and damaging the power ca-
ble by overestimating the range of the cable.
Always completely unwind the power cable. 

Note

The lower cable holder can be rotated by 360° for re-
moving the cable. The upper cable hook cannot be ro-
tated.

1. Turn the lower cable holder upwards.
2. Remove the power cable completely from the cable 

hook.

3. Fasten the cable in the fastener of the upper or low-

er cable hook to prevent it from being run over dur-
ing cleaning work.

Filling water

The water reservoir can be filled at any time.

ATTENTION

Material damage through open reservoir cover or 
incorrectly seated or loose water reservoir

Liquid can escape and damage the floor covering if the 
reservoir cover is not correctly closed or the water res-
ervoir is not correctly inserted into the device.
Take care to ensure that the reservoir cover is securely 
closed and the water reservoir is seated tightly in the de-
vice when the water reservoir is full. 

ATTENTION

Damage to the device

Unsuitable water can block the nozzles.
Do not use condensation from the clothes dryer for fill-
ing.
Do not use collected rain water for filling.
Do not use cleaning agents or other additives (e.g. 
scents) for filling.
