DANGER

Illustration 

The device contains electrical components and must 
therefore never be held under running water or im-
mersed in a container containing water - even for clean-
ing the device.

ATTENTION

Illustration 

To clean the device, remove the individual components 
(floor head cover, fresh water tank, waste water tank 
and rollers) and clean them separately. Wipe down the 
rest of the device with a moist cloth.

ATTENTION

The waste water tank must be cleaned regularly to en-
sure that dirt does not accumulate in the tank.

ATTENTION

Do not clean the floor head cover in a dishwasher: The 

basic function of the device can be impaired if the floor 

head cover is distorted by the dishwasher and the wiper 

edge no longer presses correctly onto the rollers. This 

will produce a worse cleaning result.

Illustration 



Switch off the appliance; press the on/off button to 
do so.

Illustration 



Place the device in the parking station.



Remove the waste water tank from the appliance.
See Chapter "Emptying the waste water tank".



Clean the floor head cover, waste water tank and 
waste water tank flaps with tap water.



The flaps of the two waste water tank chambers 
can be removed and cleaned separately.



Alternatively, the waste water tank and waste water 
tank flaps can be cleaned in a dishwasher.

Note

The rubber inlays of the waste water tank flaps can be-
come sticky when washed in a dishwasher. This does 
not affect their sealing ability.

Also clean the rollers if the device is not going to be 
used further.
See chapter "Cleaning the rollers".



After cleaning, fit the waste water tank with flaps 
and floor head cover back into the device.

ATTENTION

Clean the floor head if dirty.

ATTENTION

Do not clean the floor head cover in a dishwasher: The 
basic function of the device can be impaired if the floor 
head cover is distorted by the dishwasher and the wiper 
edge no longer presses correctly onto the rollers. This 
will produce a worse cleaning result.



Clean the roller drive with a moist cloth.

Illustration 



Insert the floor head cover into the floor head.

ATTENTION

The rollers should be washed under a tap or cleaned in 
a washing machine after each use to prevent accumu-
lation of detergent residues in the rollers that can lead 
to the formation of foam over time.
The fresh water tank and waste water tank must be 
emptied if the device is laid on the floor in order to re-
move the rollers. This prevents liquids from escaping 
from the tanks while the device is lying on the floor.

or



Wash the cleaning rollers in the washing machine 
up to 60°C. 

ATTENTION

Do not use any soft detergents when cleaning in the 
washing machine. This avoids causing damage to the 
microfibres. It also preserves the high performance lev-
els of the cleaning rollers.
The cleaning rollers are not suitable for the tumble dryer.

Figure 

 to 



Once cleaned, place the rollers on the cleaning sta-
tion storage and leave them to air dry.



Drying time can be minimized by wringing out the 
rollers beforehand.



Also clean the floor head cover and waste water 
tank if the device is not going to be used further.



Clean the roller drive with a moist cloth.

ATTENTION

The use of unsuitable cleaning and disinfecting agents 
can damage the appliance and will void the warranty.

Note

Add cleaning or disinfecting agent as required. 



When dosing the detergent and care product, fol-
low the manufacturer's dosage instructions.



To prevent foaming, first fill the fresh water tank 
with water then cleaning or disinfecting agent. 



To avoid exceeding the "MAX" fill level on the fresh 
water tank, leave room for the cleaning or disinfect-
ing agent when filling with water.
