Notes



We recommend using the Kärcher ironing table 
with active steam extraction. This ironing table has 
been designed to match your new steam cleaner. It 
facilitates and, thus, accelerates the ironing pro-
cess substantially. In any case, you should use an 
ironing table which is covered with a mesh-type un-
derlay allowing the steam to pass through.



The steam level 5 (VapoHydro function) is blocked 
while the steam pressure iron is plugged in to pre-
vent the laundry to be ironed from getting wet.



Make sure that there is fresh tap water in the boiler 
of the steam cleaner.



Tightly insert the steam plug of the iron into the ap-
pliance connector. The plug must click into place 
audibly.



Start-up the steam cleaner according to the de-
scription. 
Recommended steam levels:



Wait until the steam cleaner is ready to use.

All fabrics can be steam ironed. Delicate imprints or fab-
rics should be ironed on the reverse or according to the 
manufacturer’s specifications.

Note

For these sensitive textiles, we recommend using the 
KÄRCHER non-stick ironing sole BE 6006.



Adjust the temperature control of the steam iron 
within the notched range (•••/MAX). 



As soon as the indicator lamp of the heater of the 
iron switches off, you can start ironing. 

Note

The sole plate must be hot to prevent the steam from 
condensing on the sole plate and dripping onto the gar-
ment to be ironded.



Use the top or bottom steam switch.

–

Steaming at intervals:

 Press the steam switch. 

Steam will be emitted while the switch is pressed.

–

Continuous steaming

: Pull the latch for the steam 

switch toward the rear until it locks in. Steam will 
escape continuously. To unlock, push the lock for-
ward.



Direct the first burst of steam at the start of the iron-
ing process or after ironing breaks at a separate 
piece of cloth until the steam is emitted evenly.



You can hold the iron in an upright position to apply 
steam to curtains, dresses, etc.

ATTENTION

Even if you iron without steam, there must be water in 
the boiler.



Adjust the temperature of the iron according to the 
garment you want to iron.

ATTENTION

Please observe the ironing and washing instructions in 
your garment.



As soon as the indicator lamp of the heater of the 
iron switches off, you can start ironing.

Completely empty the steam boiler to remove exist-
ing water. 

As limes cale builds up on the boiler walls, we recom-
mend to de scale the boiler in the following intervals (RF
